In this episode, we'll explore sustainable business practices with Sam Marchetti from ConsortiaCo. Sam shares his insights into the importance of aligning business strategies with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly focusing on well-being (SDG 3) and climate action (SDG 13). Sam shares insights into their work with the SDG Impact Hub, collaborating with local community organisations, social enterprises, and environmental groups to support climate action initiatives. We also delve into the concept of the Social Licence Audit, a trust-based approach to business collaboration, promoting transparency and shared wealth creation. Sam’s vision for sustainable and regenerative businesses, which he calls "impact creators," highlights the need for strategic collaborations and partnerships to solve complex problems. Additionally, we discuss the process of waste valorisation, using the example of Cream of the Crop as one of their clients who use unsellable bananas to create a marketable product, showcasing the potential business benefits of sustainability. Giselle from the Cream of the Crop has been on the Green Sense podcast before, so go back and check out episode 7! Join us as we uncover these innovative strategies and inspiring projects that are paving the way for a greener future.
