On this episode, I chat with Steve Fechheimer, CEO of New Belgium Brewing, Makers of Fat Tire, about what role businesses have to play in making the world a better place. We discuss his path to becoming CEO, what climate change has to do with beer, B-Corp certification, 1% for the planet, and how to spot corporate greenwashing from authentic environmental responsibility.  We also talk about Steve's own activism, from writing an Op-Ed to support the CORE Act and what issues he cares about personally. Lastly, he gives us some advice about how he balances parenthood and corporate leadership. Today’s episode is brought to you by Fat Tire.
