<font color="#333333" face="calibri" size="2">I was honored to join Majora Carter, Eban Goodstein, and Elysa Hammond at the launch of Bard College's new MBA in Sustainability last week to discuss how finance has been a major factor driving our ecological and social crises and how fixing finance must be a part of the solution. The ideas I presented – an all-hands-on-deck, bottom-up and top-down/systemic approach to sustainable finance – are at the core of a new finance curriculum the Capital Institute is helping Bard design. Below are the slides from my address.

At TerraCycle, our mission is to eliminate the idea of waste. We do this by creating national recycling systems for previously non-recyclable and otherwise impossible-to-recycle waste. But for every piece of waste sent to us, we donate $0.02 to a charity, or school, of the sender’s choice.<br>
