PACT Organic Underwear

PACT was just shortlisted for the Brit Insurance Design of the Year.  This is a big deal, kind of like the oscars for worldwide design.  We heart our design partners Yves Behar and the whole team at fuseproject–this is a huge testament to their great work.  Read more

Considering the industry we’re in, the 9th Annual No Pants! Subway Ride was too perfect of an event to pass up.  So the PACT team – along with hundreds of other participants – headed out last Sunday to ride BART and SF Muni pants-less.  Check out some photos from the event:

PACT co-Founders Jason and Jeff invite you to join them to ride BART pants-less while showing off their PACT.
We’ll be meeting at two locations:
Rockridge BART @ 1:40pm or
16th St./Mission BART @ 2:00pm
Come meet up with fellow PACT-ers at either the Rockridge or 16th St. BART station at the designated time, where we’ll all hop on BART along with hundreds of other “No Pants!” participants around the Bay.  We’ll exit at Embarcadero station and proceed to MUNI, after which you’re invited to free (yes, free!) drinks with Jason and Jeff in San Francisco.
For more information about this awesome event (which will be occurring in dozens of cities around the world from Los Angeles to Tokyo), please see http://improveverywhere.com/2010/01/04/global-no-pants-subway-ride-2010/

So last night I got into a long discussion with family and dear friends about climate change.  My wife Elizabeth spent most of December in cold Copenhagen with Wangari Maathai and the Green Belt Movement at the COP15 talks, and I spent most of the past several years developing Freedom to Roam, an initiative to help the survival of wildlife through connecting habitats.  I’ve thought quite a bit about climate change, and I think as citizens and engaged consumers, we need to understand what’s happening down the road. Please draw your own conclusions about it, but I think it’s really critical that we all know what’s going on.  These reports have informed the way that PACT has come together as a business and why we made many of the choices that we made.  Take a look at the Summary for Policy Makers, and if you feel like reading the whole thing take a look here.
