The founder of Interface Carpet, Ray C. Anderson, had an epiphany that changed his company and the carpet industry forever. While reading Paul Hawken's "The Ecology of Commerce" he was alarmed to recognize his own industry's horrible treatment of the environment. He turned 180 degrees, retooled and led his company, the carpet industry–and some say, all of corporate America–down a new path to sustainability in business. The Ray C. Anderson foundation, created in his memory, helps foster green leadership in many places, including the college campus. In this video, his granddaughter, McCall Langford speaks of his influence and how she hopes to continue his legacy.
