On the podcast: The change BIG MONEY can accomplish (S2, E7)
Guests in episode 7 of Love Zero Waste: Reynir Indahl and Matthew Demorais
In this episode of Love Zero Waste - The change BIG MONEY can accomplish - we're focusing on the role of investors and corporations in the zero waste movement. Reynir Indahl, founder and managing director at Summa Equity and Matthew Demorais, working with Global External Affairs at Sustainable Packaging of Unilever are guest in this episode.
Investors and corporations contribute to the zero waste vision by trying to figure out how they can serve the market better, how they can earn more money, develop new products and services, push for new policies and much more. But what triggers change among the big players? How do they envision a zero waste society, and what are the concrete steps they’re currently taking?
Reynir Indahl and Matthew Demorais share their insights on large-scale zero waste change processes and disruptions and the importance of co-creation and collaboration. Moreover, Reynir and Matthew share their own personal motivation for contributing to zero waste. And Evelina and Malin discuss if system change doesn’t come down to a handful of people anyway…
