On March 29, 2010, the coalition Keep Nestle Out of the Gorge, led by Food & Water Watch, launched a campaign against Nestle Waters North America. They opposed a proposed water bottling facility in Cascade Locks, Oregon, fearing it would commodify public water resources and endanger native salmon and steelhead.

The coalition argues that such a facility would jeopardize local wildlife. As of April 2012, Food & Water Watch seeks support for a legal appeal to defend Oregon's water from Nestlé. Make a donation to the Crag Law Center to aid this effort.

U.S. Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Julián

U.S. Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Julián Castro discussed HUD's role in post-disaster community rebuilding. Following Hurricane Sandy, HUD's approach evolved from simply restoring communities to their prior state, to guiding them in building resilience for the future.

Secretary Castro expressed hope that current investments and initiatives, such as Rebuild By Design and the National Disaster Resilience Competition, will establish best practices. These examples, he noted, could then be adopted by states nationwide. (Published on Mar 16, 2015)

This episode features Julia Binder (IMD Business School) and Manuel Braun (*The Circular Business Revolution*). They explain why circularity is now a boardroom priority, offering a direct answer to resource dependency and geopolitical risk by shifting from an impact to a compelling business case, with examples like Hilti.
