2023 marks the first time greenhouse omissions will decline while energy consumption, production, and populations are increasing. New, environmentally sensitive production systems (solar, wind, etc.) are biting into the fossil fuel history. These are just the tip of the iceberg for environmental and sustainable investing opportunities that could help turn back the tide of damage to the planet. Even more importantly, looking after the planet and learning how to govern for a positive future for all mankind should sit at the center of how we build new from our existing corporations to the future corporations.Today's podcast is with an expert who will guide us through what that conversation we should all be having as leaders in major enterprises as we learn to re-balance.

Schreane is the author of Gambling on Green: Uncovering the Balance among Revenues, Reputations, and ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) (Wiley, September 2022) and Corporations Compassion Culture: Leading Your Business toward Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (Wiley, 2021).

This week, you’ll hear about getting #JusticeforJunior, claims that BPS admins have been sharing student info with ICE, and recent stats showing that there are more guns in the U.S. than there are people. In the 360 topic, Separation Nation (33:50), Keesa & Djevna talk about the horrific reality of tender age shelters, a direct result of this administration’s “zero tolerance” immigration policy. The policy pushes for the full enforcement of legal prosecution against families who attempt to cross the border, resulting in the separation of thousands of children from their parents/guardians. Is a crack down on illegal immigration ever an excuse for ignoring basic human rights? Melania’s recent fashion choices claim she might not care, but we do and so should you.

This week, you’ll hear about Trump making it easier to tell federal employees “you’re fired!”, Kanye and Pusha T’s controversial album cover photo choice, and how 80s Babies are officially the brokest generation. In the 360 topic, Take a Knee to Take a Stand (36:46), Keesa & Djevna talk about NFL’s new policy requiring on-field players and personnel to stand for the national anthem. This new policy stems from the continued protests that started after Colin Kaepernick decided to take a knee to protest the poor treatment of minorities in the U.S. You can’t help but wonder if race plays a part when a fellow NFL player, Tim Tebow, was praised for doing the exact same thing. One could argue that they were both advocating for beliefs that value all life, so why was Colin’s kneel received so poorly?
