Three years ago I was living in a van in a Wal Mart parking lot, and today I'm speaking at TED.

That's the part where I sold the Volvo and bought the Toyota.

Well it would lead you to put in Porsche brakes, a Ferrari engine, a Volvo body, a BMW chassis.

A lot of the planning departments became subordinated to the transportation department. It's as easy to rag on cars as it is on Wal Mart I'm not going to do that.

And maybe most important, they have a big effect on other companies.

But the truth of the matter is, you look at that car, it doesn't look like a Volvo, and it doesn't look like a Hummer.

Skoda, a major Czech car producer, whose parent company is Volkswagen, adopted ODETTE, an EU designed data interchange system based on EDIFACT, for communication with its suppliers.

And I drove up in my rented Vauxhall.

A number of private companies (Bayer CropScience, Daimler Chrysler, Volkswagen and BMW) have provided support to UNCCD official meetings.

And I'm going to stage a race here between this sort of yellowish Ford here and the red Toyota down there, and the brownish Volvo.

Steaming piles of humus.

And the Volvo is doing quite fine.

Walter! Walter! Be well, my boy!

We need Wal Mart and every other company to do the same.

And what happened a month ago was that the Chinese company, Geely, they acquired the Volvo company, and then finally the Swedes understood that something big had happened in the world.

Frank, now, this is a military zone and you're in command.

Walter, Walter! Pass it! You just play alone.

This isn't Volvos this is volcanoes.

That's the firm that's being taken over by Amalgamated Motors.

Look at TiVo.

Amalgamated Motors is beaten.

Walt?

Well, Walt.

Walter.

Get who off?

Walter!

Right away.

Oh, uh, Walter, II really don't think it's such a good idea.

Big companies, from banks to airlines, are contributing as well. The US retailer Wal Mart, for example, plans to cut emissions equivalent to 3.8 million cars, in part by implementing energy efficiency measures at its Chinese stores.

The train leaves in half an hour. I've explained it to Walter.
