Being a global citizen is about being conscious of how you are connected to everyone and everyplace.
For capitalism to benefit everyone, it must take into account human rights and the environment's capacity to renew the resources on which capitalism is built. Without labor (people) and natural materials (planet), we would not have profit. That is why sustainability is often referred to as the "3Ps": people, planet, profit.
For the individual living in a capitalist society, we have a duty to do our part. This means remembering our connection to the people around the world who make our clothes and grow our food. It means being conscious of where our waste goes when we throw away a Starbucks' cup or flush the toilet. In this blog, I will post what is going on in the world to promote the ideals of a sustainable society.
