Podcasts about reliance on

Three years ago, one of the world's largest banks, Switzerland-based UBS, completed the acquisition of another major global bank, Credit Suisse.   In today's episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast, we're talking to UBS Chief Sustainability Officer and Group Historian Christian Leitz. He tells us how the combined bank is embedding sustainability into its operations, culture and strategy. Christian also explains how he brings his background as a historian to the CSO role — ensuring that clients, shareholders and employees understand the long-term context for current geopolitical volatility. "I don't want to distract from the fact that there is this noise, but I also want to do a bit of a reality check," Christian says. "There are enormously positive movements that we've seen" when it comes to the transition to a low-carbon economy.  Christian also shares his takeaways from the inaugural Climate Week Zurich in May 2026, and what to expect at London Climate Action Week, which kicks off June 20 and includes a focus on climate adaptation alongside continued mitigation.  "We need to do both, and we need to do both well," Christian says.  This interview is the latest installment in our CSO Insights podcast series, where we talk to Chief Sustainability Officers around the world and across industries.

Ahead of London Climate Action Week, we're exploring how the UK is adopting International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) standards.   This episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast is the latest in our ongoing series about global ISSB adoption. Sustainability-related reporting is well established in the UK, and in today's episode we speak to Sally Duckworth, Chair of the UK Sustainability Disclosure Technical Advisory Committee (TAC). The TAC was formed to provide recommendations to the UK government on adoption of the ISSB standards.   "We want to eliminate what's often called the 'alphabet soup' of fragmented reporting by promoting consistency and comparability," Sally tells us.  Sally says companies' understanding of risk has evolved in the face of geopolitical conflicts and climate-related disasters. "People now see risk with a much broader lens, looking at what's happening in their ecosystem as a whole — and clearly, sustainability forms a key part of that."  We also speak to ISSB board member Richard Barker, who explains how the UK fits into the broader global context of countries adopting ISSB standards. Richard joined us on stage for our podcast event recorded live in London on April 29,and you can hear the full interview here: Live in London: How sustainability is evolving into a broader conversation about resilience | S&P Global  Listen to our interview with the Chair of the Canadian Sustainability Standards Board here: Why Canadian Sustainability Standards Board Chair calls sustainability disclosures "table stakes"  Read our latest quarterly tracker on ISSB adoption here: May 2026 – Where does the world stand on ISSB adoption? | S&P Global  Copyright ©2026 by S&P Global    DISCLAIMER  By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that S&P GLOBAL makes no warranty, guarantee, or representation as to the accuracy or sufficiency of the information featured in this Podcast.

In this episode of The Marketing Rapport, host Tim Finnigan sits down with Lÿden Foust, CEO of Spatial.ai, a company that has spent 10 years building behavioral segmentation that goes far beyond demographics. The central argument of the episode is simple and disruptive: the assumptions brands make about their customers based on age, income, and zip code are the things everyone already knows. Competitive advantage comes from understanding what people actually do, where they spend, what they follow, where their phones go, and that requires a fundamentally different approach to segmentation.The views, thoughts, and opinions expressed are those of the speaker and do not necessarily represent the views, thoughts, and opinions of ActiveProspect.

Earlier this year, we took the show on the road for our first episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast recorded live in London. We sat down in front of an audience with three guests to understand the direction of travel for sustainability, climate and the energy transition: What has changed in 2026, where are the challenges and where are the opportunities?    Today, we're bringing you highlights from that April 29 event. Sonja Gibbs, who is Managing Director of Global Markets and Policy at the Institute of International Finance (IIF), explains how sustainability is evolving into a broader conversation about business resilience that includes topics as wide-ranging as climate adaptation, innovation, infrastructure and energy security.    The IIF is a global network of financial institutions, and Sonja says that for many members, sustainability is "more integrated across business lines than so much of a separate silo."  The Iran war is contributing to this shift by bringing issues of energy security and energy affordability to the fore. "The Middle East conflict just highlights how fragile our global energy system is," Sonja tells us. "What it's leading to is really hard questions about what is the optimal energy mix in different countries and different regions."  Guest Steve Howard calls this "the next phase of the energy transition," in which renewables serve as a platform for business model innovation.    Steve is Vice Chairman of Sustainability at Singapore-based Temasek, a global investment firm with a net portfolio value of US$324 billion as of March 2025. He says that even while some business and government leaders shift attention toward energy security and affordability, they can't lose sight of the opportunities in sustainability.  "We know that tackling climate change gives us good economic growth," Steve says. "We also know an inclusive economy where you bring people out of poverty creates the best, widest economic growth. We all have to invest into that future."  And to understand the landscape for standards and reporting amid this geopolitical conflict and rising climate risks, we speak with Richard Barker, a member of the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB). Richard explains how the ISSB is focusing on adoption and implementation of its existing standards while setting new standards at a pace that makes sense for markets.   "In order to have a standard that works in a capital market context, it needs to be global and it needs to be mandatory," Richard says. At the same time, he says, "It's really important for us in this evolving world of sustainability reporting that we don't go faster than the market."

In this special edition of The Marketing Rapport, host Tim Finnigan records live from the POSSIBLE Conference in South Beach, Miami (poolside, no less) sitting down with five guests who are shaping the future of marketing technology and data strategy. The episode features Gregg Johnson, CEO of Invoca; Jason Ford, VP of Alliances at InfutorData; Michelle Walker, POSSIBLE Conference ambassador; and Nola Solomon, Co-founder of Culture Hive Media Group, plus Jeff Schlitt of Arity.

In this episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast, we talk to PepsiCo to understand how one of the world's biggest food and beverage companies is building resilient food systems.  PepsiCo products are sold in more than 200 countries and territories, and Executive Vice President and Chief Sustainability Officer Jim Andrew explains how the company works with its global farmer network to create long-term value. This is a challenge in a food system facing increasing stress from climate change, resource constraints and geopolitical uncertainty.  "All these things are hitting — food, water, energy, supply chains — all at once. And so what used to be the occasional rare disruption now really shows up all the time," Jim says. "So what we're preparing for here at PepsiCo is what I call the 'era of resilience.'"  Jim says AI is part of that resilience strategy, from helping farmers reduce their use of chemicals for pest control to making PepsiCo's plants and vehicle fleets operate more efficiently.   "For us, AI is not just a technology choice," Jim says. "It helps us align the resources that we rely on with sustainable long-term business growth — and those two things really have to go together."  This interview is the latest installment in our CSO Insights podcast series, where we talk to Chief Sustainability Officers around the world and across industries.

The rapid expansion of AI-driven data centers is putting unprecedented pressure on energy supply, emissions and water availability. At the start of 2026, S&P Global named AI and data center growth as a top sustainability trend to watch, and it was a dominant theme at both Climate Week Zurich and CERAWeek 2026 in Houston, where the conference title was "Convergence and Competition."  In this episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast, we explore how the tech and energy industries are converging to meet the growing power demands of AI while also protecting the planet and local communities. In three interviews from the sidelines of CERAWeek, we ask how companies can deliver reliable energy to power AI without sidelining affordability, emissions, water and community concerns.   Arshad Mansoor, President and CEO of the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI), explains how the research organization is convening stakeholders across the energy ecosystem to meet growing energy demand.   "Without convergence, without the stakeholders coming together to solve critical policy issues, technical issues, regulatory hurdles, we will not be able to bring speed to power," Arshad says.     We talk to Alexis Bateman, Head of Sustainability at Amazon Web Services (AWS), the cloud-computing and technology services subsidiary of Amazon. She discusses why one of the world's largest hyperscalers takes a "multipronged" approach to powering AI infrastructure that balances grid reliability and sustainability.   "We have to play both sides of the coin," Alexis says. "We have customers that are reliant on our cloud services every single day, and so we have to be a reliable partner for them. At the same time, our first choice will always be carbon-free energy and making sure that we have a steady supply."   And we sit down with Lydia Krefta, Senior Director of Electrification and Decarbonization at one of the largest US utilities, Pacific Gas and Electric Company. PG&E operates in the heart of Silicon Valley, and Lydia explains how the utility is managing the build-out needed for both electrification and data centers.  Lydia also highlights a less-discussed bottleneck in the AI build-out: human capital. Even where capital and technology exist, utilities still need enough skilled workers to plan, permit and construct the infrastructure required to meet surging demand.  Further reading and listening:  Beneath the surface: Water stress in data centers | S&P Global  CSO Insights: California's biggest utility talks decarbonization, climate adaptation and AI energy demands | S&P Global    S&P Global's Top 10 Sustainability Trends to Watch in 2026 | S&P Global  Copyright ©2026 by S&P Global    DISCLAIMER       By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that S&P GLOBAL makes no warranty, guarantee, or representation as to the accuracy or sufficiency of the information featured in this Podcast.

In this episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast, we're examining global uptake of standards created by the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB).   The ISSB launched in 2021 to create standardized sustainability reporting rules, establishing its first two standards in 2023. Since then, around 40 jurisdictions have either adopted ISSB standards or are planning to adopt them in future.    Canada was one of the early adopters, and in today's episode we speak to Wendy Berman, Chair of the Canadian Sustainability Standards Board (CSSB), which formed in 2022. Wendy explains the challenges Canadian companies face in adopting sustainability standards in a tense geopolitical environment and her expectations for greater global convergence in sustainability reporting.   "Despite these headwinds, we're not seeing any significant pullback in Canadian companies on their journey to full implementation of these standards," Wendy says. "They see sustainability issues as mainstream business risks and opportunities, and they're advancing on their journey."   She also explains how the CSSB is working with the ISSB to embed the interests of Canada's Indigenous peoples into sustainability standards. "It's important to have Indigenous rights, interests and voices heard by the ISSB," Wendy says.   We'll be back in upcoming podcast episodes to explore how other jurisdictions are adopting ISSB standards. In the meantime, you can read our latest quarterly tracker on ISSB adoption: May 2026 – Where does the world stand on ISSB adoption? | S&P Global  Copyright ©2026 by S&P Global    DISCLAIMER  By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that S&P GLOBAL makes no warranty, guarantee, or representation as to the accuracy or sufficiency of the information featured in this Podcast.

AI is changing everything about how consumers interact with brands, and not always for the better.In this episode, Tim Finnigan speaks with Professor Quentin André from the University of Colorado Boulder. André researches how consumers and marketing managers make decisions, with a growing focus on AI's role in both. The conversation revisits a paper André co-authored in 2018 and examines how much, and how fast, the landscape has shifted since then.They dig into the rising distrust consumers feel toward AI-driven advertising, including how AI makes it easier for bad actors to produce polished content that doesn't match the actual product. André also explains the "zero-click problem," where consumers get brand information through large language models without ever visiting a company's website. The episode closes with a look at a future where AI agents negotiate on behalf of consumers and what that could mean for how brands build relationships at scale.The views, thoughts, and opinions expressed are those of the speaker and do not necessarily represent the views, thoughts, and opinions of ActiveProspect.

All Things Sustainable is the official podcast of the inaugural Climate Week Zurich taking place May 4-9, and all week we've brought you special daily episodes from Zurich.    In our final episode of the week, we're talking to Celeste Saulo, Secretary-General of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). The WMO is a specialized agency of the United Nations based in Geneva, Switzerland, that facilitates worldwide cooperation on monitoring and predicting changes in weather, climate, water and other environmental conditions.   Celeste says Climate Week Zurich is helping raise awareness of the need to build climate resilience in the public and private sectors through collaboration and data sharing.  "If we speak about food security, you speak about climate; if you speak about water security, you speak about climate; if you speak about transportation and logistics and security associated with aviation or marine operations, you're also speaking about weather and climate," Celeste says. "The quality of climate information is not guaranteed unless every player plays an active role."   Celeste explains how the WMO is building consensus at a time when geopolitical tensions are high.   "We need to trust science," she tells us. "Scientists are also needed to provide objective information for decision-makers. It's not for scientists to decide on what to do, but it's for scientists to provide the right level of knowledge for those that are going to take decisions."   Learn about the S&P Global Climate Center of Excellence: Climate Center of Excellence | S&P Global  Copyright ©2026 by S&P Global    DISCLAIMER  By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that S&P GLOBAL makes no warranty, guarantee, or representation as to the accuracy or sufficiency of the information featured in this Podcast.

All Things Sustainable is the official podcast of the inaugural Climate Week Zurich taking place May 4-9, and all week we're bringing you special daily episodes from Zurich.   In our fourth episode of the week, we're talking to a leader who spent 30 years working for Swedish retail giant IKEA: Jesper Brodin. Jesper recently retired after eight years as CEO of Ingka Group, the primary operator of IKEA's global home furnishing stores, and in March 2026 he was named Board Chair of The Earthshot Prize.  Climate Week Zurich includes a focus on how sustainability can build competitive advantage, and in our interview Jesper explains how his career continuously showed him that companies can embrace sustainability without sacrificing economic benefits, quality or affordability.  "It actually is a good business to be a good business," he says.    To navigate geopolitical headwinds, Jesper says sustainable businesses need to strike the right balance between near-term and long-term thinking. "I think a long-term view gives you perspective. Then I think you should operate with a short-term anxiety and drive," Jesper says. "Governments and presidents will come and go, but the issues about climate change and about resource scarcity will remain."    William Prince of Wales launched The Earthshot Prize in 2020 to find and scale innovative solutions to the world's biggest environmental challenges by 2030.

All Things Sustainable is the official podcast of the inaugural Climate Week Zurich taking place May 4-9, and all week we're bringing you special daily episodes from Zurich. In our third episode of the week, we're talking to Zurich Insurance Chief Sustainability Officer Linda Freiner. Zurich Insurance is one of the world's largest insurers, serving over 82 million customers in more than 200 countries and territories across multiple types of insurance, including property & casualty and life insurance.   Linda explains how the insurance industry is evolving to address climate change. She says climate mitigation and adaptation are both needed to build systemic resilience amid compounding global crises.  "You can no longer look at climate risk on its own, or geopolitical risk on its own, or social risk on its own. They're all interconnected and they're all compounding," Linda says. "As an insurance company, it's our job to help our customers navigate those risks and build the right resilience measures in place to be able to withstand the shocks." This interview is the latest installment in our CSO Insights podcast series, where we talk to Chief Sustainability Officers around the world about how they're navigating the sustainability landscape. Linda says the CSO role has "changed tremendously" in recent years. Now, she says, "it's about the focus on execution. We have set all the big commitments. We have put out the plans."   The All Things Sustainable podcast will be back with more special coverage from Climate Week Zurich throughout the week, so please stay tuned.  Learn more about events S&P Global is hosting during Climate Week Zurich: Climate Week Zurich 2026 : Turning Uncertainty into Opportunity | S&P Global  Listen to all the episodes in our CSO Insights series: CSO Insights by All Things Sustainable - YouTube  Listen to previous episodes of the All Things Sustainable podcast about insurance and climate:  Why all eyes are on insurance in climate risk conversations | S&P Global   Why insurance is becoming central to climate risk conversations | S&P Global  What the LA wildfires show about climate change and the future of insurance | S&P Global  Copyright ©2026 by S&P Global    DISCLAIMER  By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that S&P GLOBAL makes no warranty, guarantee, or representation as to the accuracy or sufficiency of the information featured in this Podcast.

"But if it's used to make the business more efficient, more resilient, better prepared for the future — then the case becomes much, much stronger."  The All Things Sustainable podcast will be back with more special coverage from Climate Week Zurich throughout the week, so please stay tuned.  Learn more about events S&P Global is hosting during Climate Week Zurich: Climate Week Zurich 2026 : Turning Uncertainty into Opportunity | S&P Global  Copyright ©2026 by S&P Global    DISCLAIMER  By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that S&P GLOBAL makes no warranty, guarantee, or representation as to the accuracy or sufficiency of the information featured in this Podcast.

The second annual DC Climate Week took place April 20-26, and in this episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast we're exploring two key themes that are front and center in Washington, DC: the proliferation of data centers, and diminished federal support for science and research.  All Things Sustainable was the official podcast of DC Climate Week and in today's episode we sit down with some of the week's speakers to unpack the climate implications of both topics.    DC is where federal regulations and laws are passed, and DC Climate Week co-founder C'pher Gresham explains how developments in the nation's capital often reverberate across the US and globally.  We talk with Brandon Jones, President of the American Geophysical Union, a professional society for earth and space scientists. He says waning support for science is causing major ripple effects throughout society that will require courage, connection and creativity to solve.  "We have to rethink how we're going to engage to make sure we have the future that we want and we need," Brandon says.  AI and data center demand were another big area of focus during DC Climate Week. The Northern Virginia communities around DC are home to rapid data center growth, and Udit Garg tells us how this could impact the energy transition. Udit is Senior Vice President of Research & Development at Arcadia, a global utility data and energy solutions platform. He says the current process for permitting energy and electric transmission infrastructure needs to be fixed to allow projects to come online faster to meet growing energy demand.  And we speak to Xan Fishman, Vice President of the Energy Program at DC-based think tank the Bipartisan Policy Center. Xan says energy permitting reform is one area that could garner bipartisan support in Congress.  Further listening:   California's biggest utility talks decarbonization, climate adaptation and AI energy demands  The rise of billion-dollar US weather and climate disasters | S&P Global  All Things Sustainable is the official podcast of the inaugural Climate Week Zurich May 4-9.

In this episode of The Marketing Rapport, host Tim Finnigan sits down with Jeff Piotrowski, Chief Customer Officer at Customer Solutions Group. They explore how insurance marketers are moving past mass marketing and toward data-led outreach. Jeff explains why better segmentation, shared metrics, and stronger data quality matter more than bigger lead volumes, especially as teams try to personalize the first consumer interaction.Jeff then brings that shift into the real world. He outlines how outreach programs improve when brands test cadence, channel mix, and message style instead of treating every lead the same. He also shares how voice, SMS, and AI can work together to create more useful follow-up and conversion.The conversation closes on trust, compliance, and what comes next.Note: This episode was recorded prior to LeadsCon.The views, thoughts, and opinions expressed are those of the speaker and do not necessarily represent the views, thoughts, and opinions of ActiveProspect.

In this episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast, we're talking to the Chief Sustainability Officer of one of the largest utilities in the US — Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E).  PG&E is a combined natural gas and electric utility serving more than 16 million people across 70,000 square miles in Northern and Central California. During San Francisco Climate Week 2026, we sat down with Aaron Johnson, who took on the CSO role at the start of the year.  Aaron explains PG&E's long-term decarbonization strategy and the utility's investments in adaptation measures to address climate hazards like wildfire and sea level rise, which are priorities in PG&E's California markets.    He also discusses growing energy demand from data centers to power booming AI usage — a topic that is front and center in the San Francisco Bay Area and Silicon Valley. Aaron says PG&E is seeking to attract data center load to PG&E's service territory while driving down costs for customers.   Across all these topics, Aaron explains how PG&E is balancing sustainability, affordability and energy security.   "I don't think it's an either/or," he says. "They all come together. The organizing principle for us as a company is that triple bottom line concept of people, planet and prosperity."  This interview is the latest installment in our CSO Insights podcast series, where we talk to Chief Sustainability Officers around the world about how they're navigating the changing sustainability landscape.

In this episode of We Chat Divorce, Karen Chellew and Catherine Shanahan unpack one of the most common—and costly—realities in divorce: financial blind spots within a marriage. Inspired in part by the broader conversation sparked by the popular book Strangers: a Memoir of Marriage , this discussion moves beyond the emotional narrative and into the financial truth many individuals face when divorce becomes real. Because while the emotional impact often gets the attention, it's the lack of financial clarity that can have lasting consequences. Through real client experiences, Karen and Catherine reveal how often individuals enter divorce without a clear understanding of their financial picture. Unknown accounts, overlooked debts, and incomplete visibility aren't signs of irresponsibility—they're the result of financial roles that “worked” until they didn't. The problem is, once divorce begins, you're no longer living within the system—you're being asked to evaluate, explain, and divide it. This episode reinforces a core principle: being financially supported is not the same as being financially informed. Without clarity, decisions are made under pressure, legal costs increase, and long-term outcomes can suffer. That's why My Divorce Solution focuses on financial clarity before legal action—organizing, verifying, and analyzing your full financial picture so you can move forward with confidence, not confusion. About My Divorce Solution We Chat Divorce is produced by My Divorce Solution (MDS) — a financial divorce preparation company dedicated to helping individuals navigate divorce with clarity, confidence, and a strategic financial plan. Founded by Karen Chellew, Legal Liaison, and Catherine Shanahan, Certified Divorce Financial Analyst (CDFA), MDS was created to solve one of the most common and costly mistakes in divorce: entering the legal process without fully understanding your financial picture. Divorce is not just a legal event — it is a financial transition that can shape your long-term security. Through the MDS Divorce Financial Portrait™, clients receive expert financial analysis, organized financial disclosures, and scenario planning to understand how different settlement decisions impact their future. This financial preparation often reduces legal fees, shortens the divorce process, and helps individuals negotiate from a position of knowledge rather than fear.If you are considering divorce or already in the process, you can begin by taking the Free Divorce Financial Assessment to better understand your options. You can also join the MDS Community for expert guidance, educational resources, and live Q&A events designed to help you move from uncertainty to clarity. At My Divorce Solution, the mission is simple: replace fear with knowledge so you can make informed, confident financial decisions during divorce.

In this episode of The Marketing Rapport, host Tim Finnigan sits down with Drew Warmington, Founder at iLeads. They explore what still drives lead generation: matching consumer intent with real capability, then using data to sort serious buyers from weak signals.Drew argues that the mechanics of leads have changed less than most marketers think. Better ads, cleaner funnels, and more data science matter, but the core challenge stays the same. As volume rises, intent falls. That makes lead quality a data, trust, and compliance problem at once. He explains how property, title, and collateral data help lenders judge capability when credit and income data stay harder to access.He also explains why the lead industry rewards constant vigilance.

In this episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast, we're exploring how billion-dollar scale extreme weather and climate disasters in the US are growing in frequency and cost — and what that means for businesses, communities and  disaster recovery efforts.  The US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) previously developed and published the billion-dollar disaster report and its related historical database. In 2025, the agency discontinued the research and Climate Central picked up the baton for gathering the data and publishing related research.   Climate Central is a nonprofit made up of climate scientists and communicators, including some former NOAA staff. In March 2026, the organization published the latest report tallying US weather and climate events that caused at least $1 billion in damages.   In the episode, we speak to project lead Adam Smith, Senior Climate Impacts Scientist at Climate Central. He explains how the landscape for climate research is evolving in the US and what the business community can take away from past weather and climate disasters.  "We know that extreme events will continue to happen and we need to learn from them," Adam says. "The result will be we're better prepared in the future to minimize the loss of life and property."  Related content:  For the world's largest companies, climate physical risks have a $1.2 trillion annual price tag by the 2050s  What the LA wildfires show about climate change and the future of insurance  Physical Climate Risk | S&P Global   Upcoming events:  The All Things Sustainable podcast will be live in London April 29.

In this episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast we speak with Dirk Forrister, President and CEO of the International Emissions Trading Association (IETA), to discuss the role of carbon markets in tackling climate change.  We sat down for the interview on the sidelines of CERAWeek, the annual S&P Global energy conference that convenes stakeholders from across the energy ecosystem. Dirk explains how carbon markets in some of the world's largest economies are undergoing fundamental changes in 2026, at a time when war in the Middle East has put energy security and affordability squarely in the spotlight.  "International cooperation on climate through markets has the potential of cutting the cost in half in achieving the Paris objectives," Dirk tells us. "And in times like these when government budgets are stressed, the only way of mobilizing the kind of capital that's needed is through market-based solutions." Despite geopolitical unrest and pushback on climate action in parts of the world, Dirk says business and industry leaders remain committed to long-term decarbonization targets. "Companies take a long view," Dirk says. "They do not start investing in climate change as a whim for just a year or two. They're investing for long term."

This week's episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast brings you coverage from CERAWeek, the annual weeklong energy conference that S&P Global hosts in Houston, Texas.   Known as the "Davos of energy," the gathering convenes government and private sector leaders from across the energy ecosystem. At CERAWeek 2026, we heard how war in the Middle East is reshaping the way companies and countries manage the energy trilemma of energy security, energy affordability and energy sustainability.   "It reminds us again that energy security requires diversity of sources and supply chains," Lord John Browne tells us in an interview on the sidelines of the conference. "It will remind us again that we have to think about the energy mix."  Lord Browne was Group Chief Executive of oil and gas major British Petroleum (BP) from 1995 to 2007 and is now Chairman and Co-Founder of BeyondNetZero, the climate growth equity fund of investment firm General Atlantic. Climate remains on the agenda, he says, "but it has to be blended as always, with security and with affordability."    Learn more about CERAWeek 2026 here: CERAWeek by S&P Global | The World's Premier Energy Conference | CERAWeek  S&P Global's All Things Sustainable podcast is the official podcast of Climate Week Zurich.

This episode of S&P Global's All Things Sustainable explores nuclear fusion, a technology some in the energy industry believe could become a cornerstone of secure, affordable low-carbon power.    Our guest is Chris Mowry, CEO of Type One Energy, a company working to design and deploy a commercially viable fusion power plant. He explains the science behind fusion and how it differs from nuclear fission. He says fusion commercialization looks more achievable now than in prior decades, thanks to recent technological breakthroughs. And he says fusion can provide safe, abundant and reliable energy — if it can be commercialized at scale. Chris estimates that the global addressable market for fusion energy is nearly $1 trillion annually.  "On a global basis, there is a race today to see who is going to actually deploy the first fusion power plant in the world," Chris says.  Type One Energy is a member of the Sustainable Markets Initiative (SMI), a network of global CEOs across finance and industry, including S&P Global. SMI facilitates private sector diplomacy with the ambition of making sustainability the driving force of global markets and value creation. Over the past year, the All Things Sustainable podcast has interviewed SMI member CEOs from across industries and around the world. Listen to other interviews in the series here:  Terra Carta Series | S&P Global  Chris says Type One Energy has been working with other SMI members to put together coalitions across the entire value chain needed to deploy fusion.   "We're a fusion technology company, but it needs a lot more than technology to actually be deployed," he says. "Finance, insurance, off-takers, construction, supply chain — all of these things are needed to actually go execute any large infrastructure project and fusion power plants are no different."  Learn more about CERAWeek 2026, the energy conference hosted by S&P Global March 23-27: CERAWeek by S&P Global | The World's Premier Energy Conference | CERAWeek   Listen to our podcast episode about the themes, like fusion, that will be covered during CERAWeek: CERAWeek sneak peek: What's ahead for energy and sustainability | S&P Global  S&P Global's All Things Sustainable podcast is the official podcast of Climate Week Zurich.

In this episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast, we're talking to Carbon Measures CEO Amy Brachio.   Carbon Measures is a business-led coalition launched in 2025 with a goal to establish consistent product-level carbon intensity standards and a ledger-based carbon accounting framework. Amy explains how measuring carbon intensity at the product level will drive market-based solutions to reduce emissions at the lowest cost.  "We're looking at, how do you unlock the demand such that the products that we need to be sold — lower carbon emission steel, lower carbon emission fuels, lower carbon emission cement — are able to be sold in a way that is profitable for the organization such that they continue to drive the investment and the scale that we need," Amy says.  In the interview, we hear what's on Carbon Measures' roadmap; why Amy welcomes dialogue with existing standard-setters like the Greenhouse Gas Protocol; and how the coalition plans to grow. Current Carbon Measures members include some of the world's largest companies across industries and geographies, such as oil and gas major ExxonMobil, big Spanish bank Santander, automaker Toyota and mining giant Vale.   "These are organizations that have invested heavily in low-carbon emission solutions," Amy says of the coalition members. "The benefit for them is that they get to have demand for the products that they've invested in."      Listen to our episode How GHG Protocol's emissions standards for business are evolving | S&P Global  Read reports from S&P Global Energy:   Taking stock of the carbon accounting dialogue  A roadmap to a carbon differentiated market  S&P Global's All Things Sustainable podcast is the official podcast of Climate Week Zurich.

In this episode of The Marketing Rapport, host Tim Finnigan sits down with Gina Ive, Senior Director, Partnerships at VideoAmp. They explore cross-platform media measurement and why identity resolution keeps reporting honest.Gina describes how viewership data arrives with many identifiers from linear and digital sources. VideoAmp matches those signals to an identity spine, then resolves and deduplicates them into households through identity resolution providers. That one-to-one match supports deterministic answers: who saw an ad, who sat in the intended audience, and who later took action. She also shares what she looks for in partner data: accuracy, scale, and fidelity, with checks for fast-changing inputs like IP addresses.She closes on outcomes. Brands want to tie spend to real-world purchases and move toward outcome-based guarantees. “Always-on” data feeds and deeper integrations can cut lag time, improve match rates, and guide planning in a fragmented media landscape across TV and streaming.The views, thoughts, and opinions expressed are those of the speaker and do not necessarily represent the views, thoughts, and opinions of Verisk Marketing Solutions or Verisk Analytics.

The Greenhouse Gas Protocol has developed the world's most widely used greenhouse gas accounting standards and guidance since launching in 1998 as a joint initiative of the World Resources Institute (WRI) and the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD).  In this episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast, we unpack how GHG Protocol is now evolving — including updating its Scope 2 guidance and Scope 3 standard, launching a new 'actions and market instruments' standard, and working with other standard-setters to create harmonization — for example, announcing a partnership with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in 2025. "Historically, fragmentation in carbon accounting has been a huge problem," says Pankaj Bhatia, GHG Protocol Global Director at WRI and part of GHG Protocol's Secretariat. In the episode, Pankaj explains what's ahead for greenhouse gas accounting and reporting standards and how GHG Protocol is responding to stakeholder feedback from recent public consultations. "Climate change is not a siloed operational issue. It's a systemic issue," Pankaj tells us. "And if the problem is systemic, the accounting system must also be systemic."

How do you balance near-term energy priorities with the long-term reality of climate change and nature loss?  That's the big sustainability question we're asking in 2026, and in today's episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast, we sit down with Daniel Yergin to explore the answer.   Daniel is a Pulitzer Prize winner, S&P Global Vice Chairman, and Chair of CERAWeek, the annual S&P Global conference that has been described as "the Davos of energy." Daniel tells us what to expect when leaders from the public and private sectors convene in Houston, Texas March 23-27 for CERAWeek 2026.   This year's theme is Convergence and Competition: Energy, Technology and Geopolitics, and the conference will focus on many of the key issues we're watching through a sustainability lens this year, including AI, electrification, climate and critical minerals. Daniel explains how geopolitical fracture and economic competition are reshaping the landscape for all these topics.  "What we're seeing is the fragmentation, the end of the kind of globalization that we've known for the last three and a half decades," Daniel says. "How are people arranging their priorities when the agenda is more complex?"

In this episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast, we explore how one of the world's largest tire manufacturers is working to balance profitability with sustainability across a global supply chain.   We talk with Antoine Sautenet, Chief Sustainability Officer at France-based Michelin Group, who outlines company strategies that prioritize climate, biodiversity, social equity and circularity alongside profit.   "Today it's very difficult to translate the sustainability performance into the price of our product," Antoine tells us. "So one of our challenges is to make that balance between profit and planet in order to be able to promote the right value of our product compared to our competitors."  Antoine describes how Michelin is increasing the use of recycled and renewable materials in its tires to reduce the company's reliance on fossil fuels and other resources. And he outlines how the company works with the many smallholder farms that produce rubber for its tires to drive sustainable agriculture practices.  This interview is the latest installment in our CSO Insights podcast series, where we interview Chief Sustainability Officers around the world about how they're navigating the changing sustainability landscape.

In this week's episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast, we're exploring how aging global populations are impacting retirement, the workforce and the economy. We talk to Pat Tomlinson, President and CEO of global consulting firm Mercer, a Marsh McLennan business. Pat took the reins in 2024 and brings both global perspective and hands-on experience from the World Economic Forum's Longevity Economy Initiative, which aims to address the demographic and financial challenges of aging societies. "Having fewer workers as people age and … a lower birth rate will impact employers and will impact business and will impact society as we think about how to grow GDP," Pat says. Pat explains how retirement savings and healthcare systems need to evolve to meet the needs of the aging global population. And he outlines creative solutions that employers and governments are considering to address these challenges — including through public-private collaboration, AI, reskilling workers and flexible working arrangements.   Read the research: S&P Global's Top 10 Sustainability Trends to Watch in 2026 | S&P Global  Copyright ©2026 by S&P Global   DISCLAIMER       By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that S&P GLOBAL makes no warranty, guarantee, or representation as to the accuracy or sufficiency of the information featured in this Podcast.

In this episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast, we're talking to Vijay Bains, Chief Sustainability Officer and Group Head of Environmental, Social and Governance at Dubai-based Emirates NBD, one of the largest banks in the Middle East.    Vijay says the region and its banking sector are "doubling down on sustainability as a growth driver." He explains the growing focus on water in particular, and how this will influence sustainable finance trends.   "We're going to see a lot more blue finance," Vijay tells us. "It's a really material topic due to the water stress within the region."   In the face of climate change, the bank is also financing adaptation projects. "Adaptation for us is now hitting the mainstream," Vijay says.   This interview is the latest installment in our CSO Insights podcast series, where we interview Chief Sustainability Officers around the world about how they're navigating the changing sustainability landscape.

In this episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast, we explore the geopolitical and macroeconomic issues impacting sustainability, energy and climate strategies in 2026.   We speak to Carlos Pascual, Senior Vice President and Head of Geopolitics and International Affairs at S&P Global Energy and a former US Ambassador to Mexico and Ukraine.  Carlos describes a fragmented geopolitical landscape marked by significant uncertainty about the direction of global climate policy, action and finance — leaving progress largely in the hands of the private sector.  "We have huge changes ahead and look for the private sector to have to play a much more central role in the overall momentum on clean technology and investments in renewable energy," Carlos says.  We speak to S&P Global Ratings Global Chief Economist Paul Gruenwald to understand the macroeconomic factors influencing sustainability. Paul says AI is the dominant story for 2026.   "We're seeing great numbers out of data center and AI-related investment, but almost everything else is flat," Paul tells us.  To understand the outlook for climate change and the growing importance of adaptation alongside mitigation efforts, we speak to Dr. Terence Thompson, Chief Science Officer at the S&P Global Climate Center of Excellence. He explains how advances in climate science are helping to better understand the probability of climate hazards.   "Getting at that probability is really key to making those kinds of very practical decisions about how do we allocate limited resources to cope with climate change and adapt to it," Terence says.   And to understand the outlook for the energy transition, we speak to Roman Kramarchuk, Head of Integrated Narratives and Policy Analytics at S&P Global Energy. Roman explains how the world is balancing growing energy demands with sustainability priorities in an increasingly fractured global landscape.  "There's a big regional story here, and this is a regional story that plays out both in the technology, in the supply chains, and in the geopolitical side," Roman says.  Read S&P Global's Top 10 Sustainability Trends to Watch in 2026 | S&P Global Read The Copper Conundrum: Why Meeting AI-Era Electrification Demands Is a Race Against Time Listen to a replay of the Jan. 29 webinar: Sustainability Nexus: S&P Global's Top 10 Sustainability Trends to Watch in 2026 This piece was published by S&P Global Sustainable1 and not by S&P Global Ratings, which is a separately managed division of S&P Global.  Copyright ©2026 by S&P Global  DISCLAIMER       By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that S&P GLOBAL makes no warranty, guarantee, or representation as to the accuracy or sufficiency of the information featured in this Podcast.

In this episode of The Marketing Rapport, host Tim Finnigan sits down with Pat Sullivan, Senior Editor and Conference Co-Chairman at Risk Information. They explore how shifting consumer expectations, economic pressure, and technology are reshaping both auto and home insurance. Pat shares data-driven insights on why more consumers are shopping for new policies, the rising importance of customer experience, and how independent agents continue to win trust in a market crowded with heavy ad spend. Pat explains how increased competition and shrinking pools of “perfect” customers are pushing carriers to rethink segmentation and retention. He highlights the growing complexity of auto repairs, the impact of legal challenges on claims, and why customer advocacy now often means turning to lawyers for support. Their discussion also covers home insurance, where climate risk and underinsurance are forcing carriers to recalculate exposure and pricing in real time. The views, thoughts, and opinions expressed are those of the speaker and do not necessarily represent the views, thoughts, and opinions of Verisk Marketing Solutions or Verisk Analytics.

In this episode of All Things Sustainable, we're exploring the role that private markets play in global supply chains.   We speak to Alex Friedman, Co-Founder and CEO of Novata, a sustainability data management platform for the private markets that partners with S&P Global.   In the interview, Alex explains the significance of small and medium-sized private companies in global supply chains — and why high-quality private markets data is important for understanding supply chain risks.  "Big public companies have been the ones that have been in the focus when it comes to sustainability," Alex says. "Yet a big public company can't figure out its overall sustainability footprint and how to improve things if they can't get their arms around their supply chain."  We also explore how private markets will evolve in 2026 in the face of advances in AI technology and a fragmented regulatory landscape.   "It's a multispeed story at the regulatory level," Alex says. "But big companies ... they work in so many jurisdictions that they have to collect information when it comes to sustainability. They have to make sense of it and you have to report on it. So that's not changing."  S&P Global is part of the consortium of organizations that supported Novata upon its launch in 2021.  Read S&P Global's Top 10 Sustainability Trends to Watch in 2026  Register for an S&P Global webinar about sustainability trends to watch on Jan. 29: Sustainability Nexus: S&P Global's Top 10 Sustainability Trends to Watch in 2026   Copyright ©2026 by S&P Global  DISCLAIMER       By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that S&P GLOBAL makes no warranty, guarantee, or representation as to the accuracy or sufficiency of the information featured in this Podcast.

In this week's episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast, we bring you coverage of S&P Global Energy's Global Carbon Markets Conference, which took place in Barcelona, Spain in December 2025.   Nature was a major theme at the event, and topics of discussion included how carbon markets can be a driver of investment in nature and how new data tools can encourage investment in nature-related carbon projects.   In this episode, we sit down on the sidelines of the conference with Cain Blythe, Founder and CEO of CreditNature, a company working to make nature restoration investable.   "We've realized that what we used to do isn't fit for finance," Cain says. "So we developed a system that allows us to collect data in a standardized way ... that can be applied across multiple geographies and that can be cost effective at scale."  We also talk with Douglas Eger, Chairman and CEO of Intrinsic Exchange Group, who explains a model his company created for nature-based investments called a natural asset company (NAC). Capital invested in a NAC finances conservation, restoration, natural infrastructure and nature-based solutions.  "We think that engaging the private markets in an instrument that can scale, that gives the potential for a market rate of return, is what's missing from the market," Doulgas tells us.Listen to our previous coverage of S&P Global Energy's Global Carbon Markets Conference: How trade mechanisms, AI and innovation will influence global carbon markets in 2026  Read S&P Global's Top 10 Sustainability Trends to Watch in 2026   Read nature research from S&P Global Sustainable1: Companies around the world face risks from their reliance on nature | S&P Global  Copyright ©2026 by S&P Global       DISCLAIMER        By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that S&P GLOBAL makes no warranty, guarantee, or representation as to the accuracy or sufficiency of the information featured in this Podcast.

In this episode of The Marketing Rapport, host Tim Finnigan sits down with Rustam Irani, Founder and CEO at RGI Marketing. They explore the real challenges behind lead generation in education and other considered purchase categories, focusing on why efficiency and data-driven decision-making matter more than just filling the funnel. Rustam shares practical stories from his work across engineering and marketing, showing how small improvements at each stage of the funnel can add up to big gains. He explains how schools and businesses often chase more leads, but the real value comes from finding and fixing leaks in the process. The views, thoughts, and opinions expressed are those of the speaker and do not necessarily represent the views, thoughts, and opinions of Verisk Marketing Solutions or Verisk Analytics.

Welcome to the Planet MicroCap Podcast's Due Diligence series. I'm your host, Robert Kraft. My guest today is Dan Goldberger, CEO of electroCore (NASDAQ: ECOR). electroCore is a commercial-stage neuromodulation company developing a suite of non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation devices—delivering a two-minute therapy session designed to rebalance the autonomic nervous system. Built around its nVNS platform, the company operates across three channels: prescription medical devices for headache and migraine, the fast-growing Truvaga direct-to-consumer wellness brand, and a specialized military and government division built around its ruggedized tac-stim product.   Founded in 2006 as a non-invasive alternative to implanted vagus nerve stimulators, electroCore has evolved into a multi-indication business with seven FDA authorizations for headache, serving major customers like the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and the UK's National Health Service. I invited Dan to the show to discuss all of this, as well as: How nVNS platform works and the science behind vagus nerve modulation electroCore's evolution from implanted alternatives to multi-channel neuromodulation The prescription business model across the VA, NHS, and managed care Truvaga's growth in the wellness market and why awareness is the primary competitor The tac-stim military program and its role as a meaningful revenue stream Strategic priorities heading into 2026—profitability, capital allocation, and commercial execution Challenges around insurance coverage and overcoming the “chicken and egg” problem The path toward becoming a $150–200 million business and the long-term vision for the platform For more information about electroCore, please visit: https://www.electrocore.com/ This podcast was recorded and is being made available by SNN, Inc.

In this episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast we dive into one of the world's most diverse and valuable ecosystems: Coral reefs. To learn about the benefits of this ecosystem and the risks associated with losing it, we sit down with Sam Teicher, Co-Founder & Chief Reef Officer at reef restoration company Coral Vita.   Reefs "take up less than 1% of the seafloor while sustaining 25% of marine life, the livelihoods of about 1 billion people in 100 countries and territories. And now, conservatively, they generate $2.7 trillion a year," Sam says.  Healthy reefs also protect shorelines from flooding and storms, and they can help treat a variety of diseases. In the episode, Sam explains how Coral Vita is working to restore reefs that are dying due to climate change, pollution and overfishing.   "Restoration is not a silver bullet, but it's also a critical tool in order to keep reefs alive for future generations," Sam says. "Just like we can grow and plant trees for reforestation, we can grow and plant corals for reef restoration."  In 2021, Coral Vita won the inaugural Earthshot Prize in the "Revive our Oceans" category. Prince William of Wales launched the prize to find and scale innovative solutions to the world's biggest environmental challenges.  This interview took place during Climate Week NYC 2025 on the sidelines of The Nest Climate Campus, where the All Things Sustainable podcast was an official media partner.   Read nature research from S&P Global Sustainable1: Companies around the world face risks from their reliance on nature | S&P Global  Listen to our podcast episode featuring Conservation International: The business case for nature conservation at Climate Week NYC | S&P Global  Hear more of our coverage of sustainable agriculture: Infrastructure, food, finance: The complex picture for sustainability in Asia-Pacific markets | S&P Global  Learn about Nature and Biodiversity Solutions from S&P Global  Copyright ©2025 by S&P Global          DISCLAIMER         By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that S&P GLOBAL makes no warranty, guarantee, or representation as to the accuracy or sufficiency of the information featured in this Podcast.

Kalli Chapman, VP of Global Media and Sponsorships at Prudential Financial, joins host Tim Finnigan to dismantle the wall between brand and performance marketing. Kalli argues this separation hurts the industry. She believes all marketing efforts must drive outcomes, whether through immediate sales or long-term growth. The conversation shifts to data strategies. Kalli warns against hoarding data without a plan. She suggests marketers prioritize actionable metrics over vanity numbers. Effective teams use data to tell a clear story about the consumer journey rather than simply reporting statistics. The views, thoughts, and opinions expressed are those of the speaker and do not necessarily represent the views, thoughts, and opinions of Verisk Marketing Solutions or Verisk Analytics.

On the All Things Sustainable podcast, we talk a lot about challenges like climate change, the energy transition and sustainable supply chain management.   In today's episode, we're focusing on solutions. We sit down with three guests to unpack how their companies use technology to address key sustainability challenges.  We talk to Rajiv Bazaj, Vice President of Energy & Sustainability Solutions at big US utility Constellation Energy Corporation. He explains how Constellation uses technology to address growing energy demand. This includes making better use of current generation and longer-term solutions like small modular nuclear reactors and fusion.   We talk with Christoph Gebald, Founder and CEO of carbon removal company Climeworks. He explains how technology advances are leading to breakthroughs in carbon removal — and why this is a critical solution to address climate change.   And we speak to Jonathan Horn, Founder and CEO of Treefera, a London-based startup that provides clients with insight into their supply chains. He points to the big developments in AI and satellite technology that are enabling more granular insight into supply chains.   "I think of it as monitoring everything, everywhere, all at once," Jonathan says. "Not just because it's a good thing to do from a nature point of view, but because it's an essential bottom line C-suite problem."  We sat down with today's guests on the sidelines of the Nest Climate Campus, where the All Things Sustainable podcast was an official media partner during Climate Week NYC.  Learn about energy transition data and services from S&P Global Energy here.  Copyright ©2025 by S&P Global         DISCLAIMER        By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that S&P GLOBAL makes no warranty, guarantee, or representation as to the accuracy or sufficiency of the information featured in this Podcast.

We kick off this episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast with key takeaways from COP30, the annual UN Climate Change Conference of the Parties that ended last week in Belém, Brazil. You can listen to our previous episode about COP30 here.  Today's episode features Emilio Tenuta, the Chief Sustainability Officer at Ecolab, a provider of water, hygiene and infection prevention solutions to businesses around the world. In the interview, Emilio explains the rising focus on water in conversations about climate and nature.   "The climate crisis is really about a water crisis: The way we're going to experience climate is through extreme weather events and droughts, floods and a number of other activities that impact our businesses," Emilio says. "But it's also about water being an enabler to drive your business performance and impact."  Emilio explains how AI can help companies understand future water risks. "Up to now, we've been looking in a rearview mirror on what water stress really means," he says. "Now we're trying to embed AI so we can look predictively."    This interview is the latest installment in our CSO Insights podcast series, where we interview Chief Sustainability Officers around the world and across industries about how they're navigating the changing sustainability landscape.

My guest today is Sage Berryman, CEO of Aluula Composites (TSXV: AUUA). Aluula is focused on revolutionizing material science. Founded in 2019, the company has developed a patented process for producing ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) composites without glues—fusing at the molecular level to create materials that are lighter, stronger, more durable, and fully recyclable. This “mono-material” design also enables circularity and addresses the growing demand for PFAS-free solutions. The company first gained traction in windsports through its Ocean Rodeo subsidiary, but following a 2023 RTO and a 2024 strategic refocus under Sage's leadership, Alula divested Ocean Rodeo to concentrate on becoming an ingredient brand. Today, Aluula is targeting both premium outdoor markets—packs, tents, wind sports—and larger commercial and industrial applications, where strength, durability, and recyclability are key. Aluula will be presenting at our conference in Toronto, the Planet MicroCap Showcase on October 21-23, and invited her on to discuss: The science behind Aluula's glue-free composites Strategic pivot from Ocean Rodeo to ingredient branding Long but improving sales cycles for adoption Differentiation from commodity materials like polyester and nylon Expansion plans into higher-volume industrial applications Financial discipline, with recent margins of 40–45% For more information about Aluula Composites, please visit: https://aluula.com/ This podcast was recorded and is being made available by SNN, Inc.
