recycle. If I was a dictator in this country I would impose huge taxes on
nonrenewable resources and consumer taxes. Every time people go buy
something there would be a huge 20 percent tax on it, so they would think
twice about consuming. Right now 80 percent of our economy is based on
consuming and discarding.
Q: How do you spend time outdoors
these days?
A: I was just surfing this morning. I live right near the ocean, so that’s my
daily exercise. I also play tennis and do a lot of fishing. When I fish, I walk
for miles and miles into remote areas, so that’s pretty good exercise. I live
in Jackson Hole in the summer, so I usually fish all over Montana and even
venture into British Columbia.
Q: What advice would you give to other reluctant business people, who
want to do the right thing, but are scared of the bottom line?
A: The next generation, Generation Y, is very concerned about the
planet. They’re the new consumers, and they’re very open minded. New
businesses better be green businesses that make high-quality stuff.
These people will be consuming less and consuming better. It’s time for
more people to make better products in a more responsible way.
