Fortune's Change the World List

 

Fortune’s first “Change the World” list, is a list of 51 companies that have made a sizable impact on major global social or environmental problems as part of their competitive strategy. This list is not meant to be a ranking of the overall “goodness” of companies or of their “social responsibility.” The goal here is simply to shine a spotlight on instances where companies are doing good as part of their profit-making strategy, and to shed new light on the power of capitalism to improve the human condition.

They have compiled a playlist of 10 of their videos focused on small ways to change the world. The little things that you (yes, you) can do now (yes, now) to make a difference. It's a great way to inspire us all to do great things. I often ask people, if you had to give a TED talk right now, what would it be about?
