I'm the Digital Director for TckTckTck, a global alliance of 400 nonprofits, serving as editor-in-chief for an international publishing and social media team working to develop constructive narratives on climate change and renewable energy. My company K2B Digital provides design, copyrighting, and web production services for nonprofits and social influencers. I use blog, video and social media products to engage new audiences on environmental causes (google "Environmentalism 2.0" to see my lecture on the subject), and am currently developing a groundbreaking social graphic tool that delivers “live” petitions inside the Facebook wall.

I was the creator, writer and producer of Planet100, the Discovery Network’s premiere online news show and am a well-known blogger for MNN.com where I discuss the latest in environmental news, media, and technology. In 2006 I developed the content programs for EVO.com, a vertically integrated green lifestyle website featuring the "EVO Tree" -- an online game that tracks a person’s "greenness” across 60 metrics using multicolored leaf icons. I also created the game layer for the WorldShares rewards program on MNN and for Paramount Studio’s Voozoo app on Facebook.

I've written and produced many websites, apps, and media tools that aim to promote new narratives about the interdependence of humanity and the natural world. A few examples are the TckTckTck multilingual websites, mosaic:EARTH done in partnership with HRH Prince of Wales, and recently the video contest 'Date with History' for the United Nations 2012 Rio Earth Summit, (which received over 44M impressions on Facebook).
