ESG Insider – A New Economic Model for the Climate Change Era with Lindsey Hall and Esther Whieldon
Listen now
Description
SUMMARY In this episode of The Carbon Connection, we learn about how reshaping our economic model can turn care for our planet into an intrinsic business driver. Ahead of this year’s Davos conference held by the World Economic Forum, Bruno Roche, former Mars Inc. chief economist and founder of the Economics of Mutuality platform, sat down with Lindsey Hall and Esther Whieldon of ESG Insider: A Podcast from S&P Global. Bruno explains the theory and practice of stakeholder capitalism. That is, companies should operate for the purpose of “creating scalable and profitable solutions to the problems of people and planet” through mutual relationships with a diversity of stakeholders, not just shareholders. We also learn that while a corporate focus on mutual value creation may seem like a new concept situated for our time, it is rooted in the very etymology of the word 'company.’ Explore more connections between corporate action and climate at https://thecarbonalmanac.org/connect-the-dots.   CONTRIBUTORS Special Acknowledgment: Lindsey Hall and Esther Whieldon, hosts of ESG Insider: A Podcast from S&P Global Episode Producer: Iruka Brown Editor: Tania Marien Production Team: Richie Biluan, Kaleigh Carter, and Judy Parrella Senior Producer: Tania Marien Supervising Producer: Jennifer Myers Chua Music: Cool Carbon Instrumental, Paul Russell, Musicbed Episode Art: Jennifer Myers Chua Network Voiceover: Olabanji Stephen
