Environmental and natural resource challenges aren't going away. Despite decades of government regulation and a generation of environmental leadership, the challenges we face are only becoming more global, more complex, and more demanding of innovation. From Cambridge to Kyoto, there is still a widespread sense of apathy and individual powerlessness, that solving environmental problems is someone else's responsibility. And with debates raging between private rights and public good, environmental gains are increasingly costly to generate and difficult to secure.

So how do we navigate the turbulent waters of environmental protection in the 21st century?
