He talked abouthow evryday that 25,000 people are born each day. That is sooo many people. 116 sq miles of rain forests are destroyed and 15 million tons of carbon are added to the atmoshpere. Also that 50-100 species will go extinct everyday.

He talked about the triple bottom line. This is the balance between sustainable environment, economy and society. We usually think about one aspect. He talked about if we used all 3 of these we could benefit more.
