  It's a simple fact that the people who make policy and oversee government, sports, business, and the arts and entertainment are most commonly white men. Another fact: We cannot achieve meaningful progress if we exclude the very people who have the power to make systemic change. 
   
   
   
  This handbook is free of any attempts to shame, blame, or guilt leaders for the choices they made in the past or privileges they were born with. Instead, listeners will learn to view the work they do through a racial equity lens so they can easily and immediately begin making changes. 
   
   
   
  In The Includers, Colette Phillips explores the core qualities that inclusive leaders share: character, cultural intelligence, connections, communications, collaboration, courage, and commitment. With humor and poignancy, and backed by research, Phillips shares stories of real Includers: the CEOs, politicians, and public figures—all white male allies—she's admired, known, and, in some cases, counseled. 
   
   
   
  For leaders who are ready to do their part, this eye-opening guide offers practical, actionable insights from allies and advocates who are willing to listen, learn, and "lead from behind" to create sustainable systemic change.

  All in! - Energy and Prosperity...

  Today, more than 80 percent of global energy comes from coal, gas and oil. A completely renewable and electric energy system (All-Electric) is a distant dream, perhaps not even that.
  
  Time is of the essence. That is why we need to use all climate-neutral and secure energy sources immediately: Renewable, fossil with CO2 capture and nuclear energy-ALL IN! instead of All-Electric. Because fossil emissions are the problem, not fossil fuels.
  
  Climate neutrality can only be achieved pragmatically, open to technology and together in a symbiosis of technology and nature. Whether we get climate change under control will not be decided in Germany or Europe, not even in the USA, but in China, India and Africa. At best, climate nationalism helps our own conscience.
