Ray Anderson shared the remarkable climb of Interface at the 2007 Forum.

"If we're successful, we'll spend the rest of our days harvesting yester-year's carpets and other petrochemically derived products, and recycling them into new materials; and converting sunlight into energy; with zero scrap going to the landfill and zero emissions into the ecosystem. And we'll be doing well ... very well ... by doing good. That's the vision."

The vision brought down the tent with a standing ovation.
