David de Rothschild Visionary Award David de Rothschild’s commitment to the environment has sent him on adventures to some of the world’s most remote and fragile regions. In 2006, David spent over 100 days crossing The Arctic, from Russia to Canada, which saw him become one of only 42 people, and the youngest British person to reach both geographical poles. Prior to his 2006 ‘Top of the World Expedition,’ David had already become one of only 14 people to traverse the continent of Antarctica, and he was part of a team that broke the world record for the fastest-ever crossing of the Greenland ice sheet.

As part of Adventure Ecology’s ARTiculate series, David led a field trip expedition to Ecuador in 2007 along with a group that included a high profile artist, photographer, filmmaker and scientist. The group spent time in the Ecuadorian rainforest documenting the damage international oil companies had created by drilling the vast oil reserves and, in turn, disturbing the natural and social order.

In early 2007, David wrote the Live Earth Global Warming Survival Handbook, which was the official companion book to the Live Earth concert series. In the summer of 2008, he was the editorial consultant for Earth Matters, a children’s book published by Dorling Kindersley. Recently, the Sundance channel commissioned an eight-part documentary series, Eco-Trip, in which David investigates the life-cycle of everyday consumer products.

In 2010, David, along with a handpicked crew of leading scientists, sailors, adventurers, thought leaders, and creatives embarked on an ocean adventure of unrivalled proportions, traveling approximately 8,000 miles across the Pacific Ocean from San Francisco to Sydney in a 60 foot vessel made out of plastic bottles, PET plastic and recycled waste products.

National Geographic awarded him the accolade of Emerging Explorer, and Clean Up The World has invited David to be an international ambassador.

Furthermore, the World Economic Forum named David a Young Global Leader.

Moderator: Jeffrey Ball Jeffrey Ball, formerly The Wall Street Journal’s environment editor, is scholar-in-residence at Stanford’s Steyer-Taylor Center for Energy Policy and Finance. Ball’s work focuses on the intensifying race among companies and countries to corner the clean-energy market, and the implications of that race for consumers and the planet. In addition to conducting research, he writes articles, convenes roundtables, speaks publicly, and plans to write a book.

Ball spent more than a decade at the Journal writing about energy and the environment, in particular about the economic viability of changing the way the world consumes fossil fuels. He covered the auto industry for the Journal out of its Detroit bureau and the oil industry from the paper’s Dallas bureau. In 2009, he wrote a Journal column called “Power Shift,” which won an award from the National Press Foundation for its coverage of the changing energy and environmental landscape. He spent most of 2010 covering the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, focusing on questions about the spill’s environmental effect.

Also at the Journal, Ball created and was founding editor of “Environmental Capital,” a blog about energy and the environment.

Past Award Recipients He helped conceive, and was a host and moderator of, ECO:nomics, an annual Journal conference on energy and the environment that brings together chief executives, policymakers, and other leaders in the field. In addition, Ball helped host the annual meeting of the Journal’s CEO Council, a group of global chief executives who discuss policy issues and make recommendations for federal action. Ball also speaks on college campuses about energy issues as a Woodrow Wilson Visiting Fellow.

He has appeared on PBS, NPR, CNN and the BBC, among other networks. Before arriving at the Journal, he worked as a reporter at the Charlotte, NC Observer and the Corpus Christi, TX Caller-Times. He graduated from Yale University, where he was editor-in-chief of the Yale Daily News.

He lives in Palo Alto, CA., with his wife and two daughters.
