ESG ratings - what it all means, feat Gracee Shorter Oct 25, 2022

Show notes

ESGs are one of those topics that, IMO, everyone should understand. And what they do and do not mean. For better or worse, ESG ratings will, and already are, have a profound impact on how business is done, on emerging regulations, and in the world of corporate investment. There's a lot to unpack. For this week's episode, I was joined by Gracee Shorter, who is a sustainability solutions provider at Ecovadis to help break it down. Enjoy!

Misplaced Conservation with Adam Ford, Ph.D. Jun 14, 2022

Show notes

This episode featured Adam Ford, Ph.D. Canada Research Chair in Wildlife Restoration Ecology at UBC, on the topic of misplaced conservation. What it is, how it happens and why we should care. While misplaced conservation may seem like something far removed from cosmetics, as you'll hear once we get started, it really isn't. The misinformation in our space has a tremendously negative impact, including potentially on conservation efforts. With that, I'll leave you with the episode. Enjoy!
