Wired Magazine: Exploring Sustainability at NAIAS
Sustainability. This was the word that I was hearing repeated over and over at this years NAIAS (North American International Auto Show) in Detroit, Michigan. The official definition of sustainability is the capacity to endure. It’s used to describe how biological systems remain productive over time. In this context, it was used to describe the future of the automobile industry, to not only remain competitive, but looking to the future of diminishing energy sources and the search for more sustainable “green” sources of energy.
When it came to an overall attention and focus on future sustainability and green living, regardless of who paid for the trip, Ford stood out from the rest of the crowd, especially among the American auto makers. I wasn’t alone in this line of thinking. When it comes to green living, no one knows it better than the green living guy himself, Seth Leitman, of greenlivingguy.com;
