Greetings! 

Things are heating up, and that's not just a comment about climate change! While you're dusting off the bikes, removing those cobwebs from your lawn chairs, and flexing stiff garden muscles, we're working hard on our upcoming June issue, which is dedicated to sustainability and the environment. 

 

The magazine will be brimming with content, including opinion pieces from leading experts in the field, profiles of environmental entrepreneurs, and first-hand stories from innovators driving sustainable and measurable impact in their communities. And it's not too late to get involved. Contact us if you know someone we should be speaking with, or if you'd like to reach out to our audience with an advertisement of your own.

 

And be sure to check out all the great stories in this month's newsletter, including predictions about the future of social entrepreneurship, tips on which business structure is right for you, and final thoughts on the Skoll World Forum.

 

Enjoy!
