Going Green Through Crowdfunding With Will Wiseman

Most green energy projects, no matter how admirable they could be, are often impeded by a lack of funding and government leverage. Thankfully, there is one efficient way to support them using your own money: crowdfunding. Corinna Bellizzi is joined by Will Wiseman, who is making this process much easier and accessible for everyone through Climatize. Will shares how they help renewable energy developments grow and prosper, especially those small-scale and community-based ones, by giving people the power to pick specific projects to put their money into. He also talks about their transparency approach that allows Climatize users to see (or even personally visit) the tangible outputs of their money.
