“1% for the planet is really set up as a way to sort of break it down, and create a pathway to action that kind of gets us through the overwhelm. So, the way it works is that we have businesses who are our members, and they're actually supporting environmental partners at the level of 1% of revenues….You invest in the things that matter and the planet matters. …(The point is to) drive impact at scale. And so, in terms of that scale, last year we certified US$100million of support going from these companies to environmental partners….When a company joins, they pay a dues fee to us, but then the rest of their 1%, they will give directly to environmental partners….And then at the end of each year, we certify that giving.” Kate Williams on Electric Ladies Podcast It's a time of year when people are thinking about making donations. So we want to talk about what nonprofits can really do, especially in partnership with the private sector and the public sector. It's about coming together, leveraging each other's strengths and networks to have a much larger impact. We sure need to have a much larger impact right now. So, how do we scale donations? Listen to Kate Williams, CEO of 1% For The Planet on how they help companies of all sizes and shapes leverage their donations strategically for their goals in this fascinating discussion with Electric Ladies Podcast host Joan Michelson.  You'll hear about: How 1% For The Planet works – and why they certify their members' donations. How their Planet Impact Fund works – and the four areas they focus on. Stories of donations that made a big difference, and creative ways they did it Trends they have seen I the corporate donations over the past 10 years. Plus, insightful career advice, such as… “A couple things. One is, step forward and step up before you think you might be ready.… Becoming a CEO or C-suite can be one way that you progress, but you can also just become really deeply knowledgeable in a particular area.… Sometimes as women and just as humans, we can maybe hold ourselves back. So, I would say like, step up before you're ready.…(S)upport appears when once I've taken the step….The other thing is stay open to serendipity…We may forget that serendipity is sometimes how the opportunities that we get to step into are shown to us….

In this interview episode (originally published in 2022), we explore how approval voting could change the political landscape in America with Aaron Hamlin, Executive Director of The Center for Election Science. Aaron shares his journey from political intrigue in grad school to advocating for a voting method that lets voters express a broader range of candidate preferences. Approval voting, a simple yet impactful system, allows people to vote for as many candidates as they approve of, with the candidate receiving the most votes winning. By tackling vote splitting and enabling voters to support multiple candidates, approval voting seeks to foster representation and discourage extremist candidates.Aaron offers insights into the success of approval voting in Fargo, St. Louis, and upcoming initiatives in Seattle, as well as the broader potential for state and even national adoption. We discuss how this system can reduce polarization, give voters more genuine choices, and improve political continuity by enabling policies that reflect broader support.Key Highlights:What is Approval Voting? Aaron breaks down the mechanics of approval voting, explaining how it differs from the "choose one" voting system and ranked-choice voting.Real-World Success Stories: Approval voting has seen success in Fargo and St. Louis, with campaigns expanding to other cities and states.How Approval Voting Reduces Vote Splitting & Extremism: By letting voters support multiple candidates, approval voting helps prevent extremist candidates from capitalizing on vote splitting, a common pitfall in primary elections.The Road to National Adoption: Aaron shares the Center for Election Science's roadmap to implementing approval voting on a national scale, allowing states to decide how their electoral votes are assigned.Take ActionListeners inspired by this episode can learn more and join local chapters to advocate for approval voting through The Center for Election Science.

The coffee industry is indeed one of the most thriving in the world, but it has a darker and rarely discussed aspect: the plight of its farmers. They constantly face low commodity prices and get little to no support, making them highly exploited by middlemen and at risk of climate change. Bob Fish and Michelle Fish share what they are doing to salvage the coffee industry through their business, Biggby Coffee. Joining Corinna Bellizzi, the couple shares how their direct-buying model guarantees coffee farmers fair prices and helps promote regenerative farming practices. Bob and Michelle also emphasize the importance of building emotional connections between consumers and producers through their Full Circle Program.Message From Bob:My name is Bob Fish. My wife Michelle and I are on a journey to discover and unite us with the lands and the people that make this unbelievably great and natural product that we all love. We will examine and verify that what we are consuming is being produced in a humane, sustainable, and quality matter. We invite you to be right there with us as we meet the families and learn their names and their stories. Together, we will explore what it means to be on our ”One BIGG Island in Space”… oneness without boundaries.About Guests:Michelle Fish began her life as part of a family that lived in many places in the United States and Europe. By the age of 17, when she started college at Michigan State University, she had moved 13 times. She put herself through MSU by working at a local family style pancake house restaurant. By the time she graduated, she was the General Manger of that restaurant and two years later, after helping them grow from one to four locations, she owned the third one. Michelle took a year off and created with co-founder Mike McFall the concept BIGGBY COFFEE. They started with one location in 1995, added a second in 1997, and started franchising in 1999. Today, they are 100% franchised and have 408 units open in Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida and Idaho.Bob Fish and his wife Michelle are travelling the world in search of coffee farms and farmers that are taking exceptional care of their people and the planet. Their goal is that 50% of the 2,000,000 pounds of coffee that BIGGBY COFFEE sells in a year will be farm direct by 2013.

In this week's episode of The Produce Industry Podcast w/ Patrick Kelly we chat with a new type of bag company that is changing the way you store produce inside your refrigerator at home. To tell the story correctly, Jordan's mother traveled through Europe on a path to find what could be the most sustainable bag in your fridge. Imagine this, the quality of this bag is so powerful that in the early 1800's medics used it to help clot wounds for soldiers on the battle field. Our guest Jordan Greig of Ambrosia Linen Refrigerated Bags tells all about the innovative product you want in your home. Who are they you ask? At Ambrosia, our values drive everything we do. We are passionate about reducing food waste in households and promoting equity. As a fair-wage company based in Ojai, California, we are proud to partner with 1% For The Planet. We go beyond just linen produce bags. Through our partnership with EcoDrive, we plant a tree for every online order we receive. Our commitment to the environment and global community is ongoing and sincere, not just an attempt at greenwashing. Join us in our mission to be better stewards of the planet while finally having the chance to enjoy all your fresh produce. https://ambrosiaproducebag.com/ FANCY SPONSORS: Ag Tools, Inc.: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.agtechtools.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, Flavor Wave, LLC.: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://flavorwavefresh.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, Noble Citrus: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://noblecitrus.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, Buck Naked Onions/Owyhee Produce, Inc.: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://www.owyheeproduce.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, John Greene Logistics Company: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.jglc.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠,  Bell Harvest Sales; https://www.belleharvest.com/ and Summer Citrus From South Africa; ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.summercitrus.com ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ CHOICE SPONSORS:  Equifruit: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://equifruit.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Arctic® Apples: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://arcticapples.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Sev-Rend Corporation: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.sev-rend.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, Jac Vandenberg Inc.: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.jacvandenberg.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ , WholesaleWare: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.grubmarket.com/hello/software/index.html⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Continental Fresh, LLC: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.continentalfresh.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and RPE/Tasteful Selections: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tastefulselections.com/ ⁠, Apeel Sciences: ⁠https://www.apeel.com/⁠, Thx!

Il n'est pas du genre à élever la voix ou à attirer les projecteurs. Et pourtant, voilà déjà un quart de siècle qu'Antoine Koch promène sa silhouette longiline et sa discrétion dans le monde de la voile de compétition. Et on pourrait ajouter "comme prévu" - ou presque - à la phrase précédente, tant ce garçon, né à Paris voilà 45 ans, a choisi sa voie très tôt.  Son destin est en effet scellé dès son plus jeune âge : il a beau être parisien, la maison de vacances familiale est mitoyenne de celle des Caudrelier à Fouesnant, il fréquente la fameuse école de voile du Cap-Coz dont sont issus - entre autres - Roland Jourdain et Jean-Luc Nélias. Bref, la baie de la Forêt est son jardin, et le bateau des parents l'emmène très vite vers des rêves de Vendée Globe.  A 20 ans, étudiant à l'Université de technologie de Compiègne - "parce qu'ils avaient un programme pour les athlètes de haut niveau" - il se lance dans son premier projet, la Transat AG2R ; l'année suivante, toujours étudiant, c'est sa première Solitaire du Figaro, où, benjamin de la course et bizuth, il se fait remarquer par une étonnante 8e place dans la première étape, qui se confirme par ses trois participations suivantes, toutes terminées... dans les 10 premiers, avec une victoire d'étape !  Avec le Vendée Globe dans le viseur, il rachète en 2002 Fila, l'Imoca de Giovanni Soldini, et se classe 5e de la Route du Rhum 2002 puis 8e de la Transat Jacques Vabre 2003, avant de devoir renoncer au tour du monde, faute de sponsor. Il rebondit quelques mois plus tard en prenant la barrre du trimaran Orma Sopra : il vit les dernières années du circuit et découvre le solo sur ces machines particulières, se classant 9e du Rhum 2006 puis 5e de la Transat Jacques Vabre.  Retour, ensuite au Figaro - avec une nouvelle victoire d'étape en 2009 -, un détour par le Multi50 et le Classe C, et le voilà sur le Mod70 Gitana en 2012 : le navigant se mue en coordinateur technique, au sein de l'écurie du baron où il participe à l'épopée de la création du Maxi Edmond de Rotschild.  En 2017, il passe à l'Imoca et entame une fructueuse collaboration avec Thomas Ruyant, avec qui il participe à la conception et au développement de LinkedOut, en particulier sur les voiles et les appendices, prenant la 4e place de la Transat Jacques Vabre en 2019 au passage. Le skipper de LinkedOut n'a pas encore fini son Vendée Globe qu'Antoine Koch commence à réfléchir au bateau suivant. Il s'associe avec Finot-Conq pour proposer un nouveau plan pour le prochain Vendée Globe, retenu par TR Racing mais aussi l'équipe Paprec Arkéa de Yoann Richomme.  Et on dirait que ça marche : For People, le plan Koch-Finot-Conq a remporté la Guyader Bermudes 1000 Race, avec à peine 6 sorties au compteur. Antoine Koch, lui, s'est emparé de la troisième place avec Sam Goodhild sur l'ex Linked Out, devenu For The Planet. Ingéneur-architecte, peut-être, mais navigant, toujours !
