We-commerce : how to create, collaborate, and succeed in the sharing economy / by Howard, Billee.;
Introduction: The house of we -- Embrace the awesome power of redemptive deconstruction -- Adapt to the laws of creative evolution -- Become an artist of business -- Start your own small-town silicon -- Learn the new geography of global innovation -- Homebrew your own cult -- Profit with purpose -- Bespoke is the new beautiful -- Stay small but reach all -- Pop-up-alooza! -- Epilogue: What lies ahead -- Afterword."In WE-Commerce, visionary marketing strategist Billee Howard lays out her plan for a new vision of success and long-term, purposeful profitability in the new global, sharing economy. Today, the most successful businesses and entrepreneurs thrive through connectivity, socialization, and sharing. It is an age of WE-Commerce, an economy centered on the power of "we" instead of "me," focused on the needs of the many over the few. Booming companies such as Über and Airbnb leverage technology to create platforms that rely largely on social media and community feedback to facilitate people's ability to collaborate with one another. Instead of traditional business strategies, companies must now inspire belief and trust in their communities; collaborate with their customers; create business models that are socially and environmentally responsible; find opportunities for creative collaboration with large, global markets; and become a new generation of innovators--"artists of business." With advice from "stay small but include all" to "profit with purpose" and "embrace disruption," Billee Howard gives readers the reinvented business toolkit that they will need to effectively collaborate, co-create, and succeed in a WE-Commerce landscape, and to acquire a new set of skills that will position them as leaders in the transformed economy"--

The hot topic : what we can do about global warming / by Walker, Gabrielle.(CARDINAL)673183; King, D. A.(David Anthony),1939-(CARDINAL)718254;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 245-266) and index.The problem -- Warming world -- Whodunnit? -- Feeling the heat -- In the pipeline -- Climate wild cards -- Technological solutions -- What should we aim for? -- More from less -- Planes, trains, and automobiles -- Power to change -- Political solutions -- It's the economy, stupid -- The road from Kyoto -- Rapidly developing nations (or, Come on in, the agreement's lovely) -- Industrialized nations (or, Whose fault is it anyway?) -- How you can change the world -- Appendix : Climate myths, half-truths, and misconceptions."Last year, awareness about global warming reached a tipping point. Now one of the most dynamic writers and one of the most respected scientists in the field of climate change offer the first concise guide to both the problems and the solutions. Guiding us past a blizzard of information and misinformation, Gabrielle Walker and Sir David King explain the science of warming, the most cutting-edge technological solutions from small to large, and the national and international politics that will affect our efforts. While there have been many other books about the problem of global warming, none has addressed what we can and should do about it so clearly and persuasively, with no spin, no agenda, and no exaggeration. Neither Walker nor King is an activist or politician, and theirs is not a generic green call to arms. Instead they propose specific ideas to fix a very specific problem. Most important, they offer hope: This is a serious issue, perhaps the most serious that humanity has ever faced. But we can still do something about it. And they'll show us how."--Publisher's description.
