About this listen

Check out this podcast to explore a groundbreaking new framework that finally moves beyond the simplistic "good vs. bad" debate on corporate sustainability, revealing how global supply chains impact our planet in four distinct, context-dependent ways. By listening, you will uncover why the same environmental initiative can be a game-changer in a healthy ecosystem but barely scratch the surface in a degraded one, and what this means for the future of business strategy. This podcast is your guide to understanding how tailored policy tools such as financial incentives and strict regulations can transform supply chains from drivers of ecological damage into powerful engines for restoration and resilience.
