It is indeed one part of a much larger wave that can be viewed historically. The move to an overall more sustainable manner of living includes the way we consume, how we spend out time, the way we view philanthropy and how we invest. At xigi we think there is a new asset class emerging between philanthropy and investment that is changing the way we think about capitalism and market based systems. I'd love to talk to you and your friend about these other pixels in this overall shift.
