Moving From Ambition to Action with Upstream Thinking for a Sustainable + Circular World with James George (Pyxera Global)

If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go with others. In this chat with returning guest James George, previously at the Ellen MacArthur Foundation and now in a new role at Pyxera Global, we explore a breadth of topics to redefine systems for sustainability, equity, and circularity-> starting with upstream thinking. Topics include: 1) defining accountability, 2) causality challenges, 3) fair living wage, 4) how lowest price encourages bad behavior in supply chains, 5) what is the total cost of ownership and why should we care, 6) the shift toward planet positive and how we will become consumers of environmental services, 7) getting the right info and source of truth in complexities (COP26), 8) the rise of the expert versus the rise of the connector, 9) the beauty of unusual collaborators to drive systems change for social impact.
