My guest in this episode is an absolute Rockstar. Storm

Environmental Resilience, Storm tracks the latest trends and
techniques in urban/rural regeneration, natural resource
restoration, and resilience worldwide.

work”, “Required reading”, and “The most important and valuable
business book I have read in many years.”

His second book, reWealth, was published by McGraw-Hill in 2008.
George Ochs, Director of Real Asset Investment at JP Morgan calls
Storm “the world’s thought leader on community revitalization and
natural resource restoration” and calls reWealth: “The secret
weapon…for economic recovery at both local and global
scales.”
