In 1996, while traveling throughout China selling bicycle locks, Josh recognized that this hugely populated country of a billion cyclists would one day develop into a nation of a billion car drivers, causing potentially unprecedented stress on the local and global environment. How all nations enable their populations to raise their living standards while bringing their lifestyles into balance with nature is a vital challenge for the 21st century and what Josh’s ventures strive to address.
