Human societies have produced more than nine billion tons of plastic since the 1950s. Nearly all of it ends up as trash, polluting our environment and our communities. Most of that plastic waste disproportionately affects the most vulnerable, and it's become a social justice issue. In this episode, Morgan Stanley Chief Sustainability Officer Audrey Choi speaks with several guests on the front lines of thinking about and solving for the plastic-waste-as-social-justice problem, including: Victoria Kwakwa, the World Bank's Regional Vice President for East Asia and the Pacific, to understand how plastic waste impacts the health and livelihoods of low income residents; David Katz, founder of The Plastic Bank, a social enterprise that creates recycling solutions in emerging-market countries, such as Haiti and Indonesia; and Ellen Jackowski, Chief Sustainability and Social Impact Officer at HP, a global technology giant that has integrated solving for plastic waste and highlighting social justice into its business decisions.DisclaimersThe guest speakers are neither employees nor affiliated with Morgan Stanley & Co.

Recycling hasn't been the magical answer to the plastic waste problem. But new technologies and new materials might just change that. We talk to scientists who are developing new plastics, designers who are reimagining products for recyclability, and innovators who are out to redefine our relationship to plastic. Hopes were high for consumer recycling, but in the end much of the plastic we put in the bin does not make make its way into new products. On this episode, host Audrey Chol talks with folks who are trying to change that reality. Scientist Brett Helms, of the Berkley National Laboratory in California, is working at the cutting edge of new plastic technology; designer Christina Raab of the Cradle to Cradle Products innovation Institute is working to get companies to design recycling right into their products; and innovator Chris Krohn of Ideo is working on new ways for consumers and companies to think about their relationship with plastic products.

Plastic is literally woven into the fabric of our lives; when we discard our clothes, we're often piling on to the mounting plastic-waste problem. Host Audrey Choi talks to textile designers, manufacturers and recyclers who are trying to change the lifecycle of these essential products.It's not just the containers our food and drinks come in, or the way our we package our goods for delivery. Even the clothes we wear are contributing to the plastic-waste problem. And while, some may find it easy enough to retire last season's styles from their closets, so many components of our garments, or their textile inputs, are plastic that the clothes themselves have few good end-of-life options.Audrey Choi talks with Molly Hemstreet of The Industrial Commons, Carmen Gama of Eileen Fisher, and Annie Gulingsrud of the EON Group about how we can change the lifecycle of our clothing products—and reduce the plastic waste impact of an entire industry.Disclaimers:The guest speakers are neither employees nor affiliated with Morgan Stanley & Co.

De acordo com a especialista em investimentos Audrey Choi, são os indivíduos os proprietários de quase metade de todo o capital global, o que lhes concede o poder de fazer a diferença no mundo se investirem em empresas que defendem sustentabilidade e valores sociais. "Hoje temos mais oportunidades do que nunca para fazer escolhas", ela diz. "Então mude sua perspectiva. Invista na mudança que você quer ver no mundo".
국제금융시장이 사회적 변화의 기폭제가 될 수 있을까? 투자전문가인 오드리 최에 의하면, 개인들이 국제금융의 절반가량을 소유하고 있고 이런 자본들이 사회적 가치나 지속가능성을 옹호하는 회사들에게 투자하게 만들어서 변화를 이끌어 낼 수 있다고 합니다. 그녀는 말합니다, "오늘날 우리는 그 어느때보다도 많은 선택의 기회를 가지고 있습니다. 미래를 보는 방식을 바꿔보세요. 그리고 세상에 변화를 보고싶은 방향대로 투자를 하십시오."

More and more we are seeing institutional investors allocating substantial sums to impact. Audrey Choi, CEO of Morgan Stanley’s Institute for Sustainable Investing explains the underlying drivers as a confluence of circumstances, “While the concept of adapting one’s investment philosophy to align with institutional or individual values has been around for centuries, today, a number of powerful political, economic and societal mega-trends are combining to produce a global investment landscape that increasingly demands more transparency, more accountability and more integration of beliefs and values into all spheres of activity. Taken together, these factors help accelerate the development of sustainable investing.” Maya Chorengel, a co-founder of Elevar Equity, an impact investment fund that finances social ventures, notes, “Impact investing should be central in discussions about the future of capitalism. Wealth inequality is prominently featured in these discussions today; wouldn’t we rather turn attention to the democratization of capital, which is one important category of impact investing?”
