Toxic Chemical Exposure - Changing Complex Systems
Listen now
Description
How do you bring together a global network of stakeholders in electronics production to make an impact on worker safety?  In this episode, we interview Russ Gaskin of CoCreative Consulting about the Clean Electronics Production Network, an initiative that unites diverse stakeholders to understand, address, and eliminate workers’ exposure to toxic chemicals in the electronics supply chain. We talk about leveraging feelings of overwhelm, how bringing diverse perspectives together to solve huge problems is an imperative rather than a luxury, the power of throwing a better party and letting people experience it, and getting in the right relationship with fear.  Check out the Green America Center for Sustainability Solutions to learn more about other projects focused on multi-stakeholder collaboration such as the Soil Climate Alliance.  Have a question, comment, or a recommendation for a perfect guest?
