Mitchell Joachim, who was named in this month's Wired Magazine as one of "15 People the Next President Should Listen To," spoke to the group and addressed everyday consumption of goods and the production on a whole new level, an ecological level that improves functionality while working with the laws of nature. This topic was set in advance of the final presidential debates which were featured inside upon the conclusion of the talks and cocktail hour.
