THE SELLING OF SOULS • COMPANIES ARE EMPLOYING QUASI-RELIGIOUS TACTICS TO INSPIRE ENTHUSIASM FOR THEIR BRANDS. WHAT HAPPENS WHEN CUSTOMERS HAVE A CRISIS OF FAITH?

STREAMING WARS • NEW VIDEO SERVICES FROM APPLE, DISNEY, AND OTHERS ARE CHALLENGING NETFLIX.

SIGNS OF THE TIMES • AMERICAN SIGN LANGUAGE INTERPRETER SARA GROVES MAKES CONCERTS ACCESSIBLE TO EVERYBODY.

A CLEANER COATING • SHERWIN-WILLIAMS SUBSIDIARY VALSPAR HAS DEVELOPED A BPA-FREE LINING FOR SODA CANS—WITH HELP FROM HEALTH AND SAFETY GROUPS.

SESAME TO THE RESCUE • THE NONPROFIT BEHIND SESAME STREET HAS A TEAM FOCUSED ON HELPING KIDS IN TIMES OF TRAUMA—BECAUSE NOT EVERY DAY IS SUNNY.

Four ways Google marketing is planning for an automated future

THE RIGHT ANGLES • A NEW KIND OF SKYSCRAPER IS BRINGING MORE LIGHT AND AIR TO AN INCREASINGLY DENSE NEW YORK CITY.

A MATTER OF DEGRE ES • HOW CLIMACELL’S HYPER-PRECISE FORECASTS HELP CITIES PREPARE FOR BAD WEATHER

BANKING ON SUCCESS • THE CHARLIE’S ANGELS DIRECTOR AND ACTOR ELIZABETH BANKS TALKS ABOUT RUNNING HER OWN PRODUCTION COMPANY—AND TAKING CONTROL OF HER CAREER.

MODULAR CLASSIC • Kartell’s iconic units can be bookshelves, night tables, or stools—and packed full of your stuff.

SAVING CAPITALISM FROM ITSELF • Meet the CEOs, workers, activists, thinkers, policy wonks, and class traitors leading the way toward a more equitable, humane, and democratic economic system that works for the many and not the few.

UPHILL CLIMB • Patagonia’s Yvon Chouinard set the standard for how a business can mitigate the ravages of capitalism on earth’s environment. At 81 years old, he’s just getting started.

COMMUNITY • SIX PEOPLE BUILDING LOCAL POWER

A FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON THE FLIGHT TO DAVOS • Author Anand Giridharadas has attracted a rabid following for his rebuke of the idea that philanthropic billionaires are society’s heroes. Even some plutocrats are starting to agree with him.

ETHICAL FINANCE • FIVE PEOPLE DESIGNING A MORE PRINCIPLED ECONOMY
