What Does Love Have to Do With It? with Ian de Cruz

Ian de Cruz, Global Director of P4G (Partnership for Green Growth and Global Goals by 2020) will joins guest host Gene Early this week to share vision, implementation, and successes from P4G's contribution to creating a sustainable, global future. Ian will address the question of, "How do you lead by example to make healthy, sustainably-sourced food more available for all; transform our cities into cleaner, healthier places to live and work; reduce global waste and find new ways to use and re-use what we already have?" For him it begins with love. That love has its source in his origin story, a child of a migrant family, and his journey to envisioning a safer, healthier, more inclusive world for himself and others. He'll share how his history has shaped his identity and prepared him to lead this global effort. He'll also describe how P4G's leadership team has directed the incubation and acceleration of more than 70 global partnerships in eight countries and already reduced CO2 emissions by almost 200,000 metric tons with more to come. Join us as Ian gives us a glimpse into the future that he sees, what is required for us to move rapidly toward net zero carbon emissions and meet our very challenging climate and sustainability goals.
