Join us as host Erika Schiller, Dr. Stuart Pimm, Founder of Saving Nature, and Luis Mazariegos, Founder of Bioconservancy Foundation talk about their collaborative conservation efforts in partnership with ClimeCo to protect and restore Colombia's Andean cloud forests.

Together, they discuss how this project utilizes carbon credits to support sustained conservation, creating environmental and socioeconomic benefits. Through community involvement and rigorous scientific research, their efforts illustrate the potential for biodiversity to flourish when aligned with sustainability goals.

Additionally, Stuart and Luis share insights from COP16 in Cali, Colombia, where discussions centered on the urgent need to protect biodiversity hotspots like tropical forests. They highlight the event's focus on increasing resources for biodiversity protection and fostering partnerships across sectors, from indigenous communities to policymakers.

About ESG Decoded

ESG Decoded is a podcast powered by ClimeCo to share updates related to business innovation and sustainability in a clear and actionable manner. Join Amanda Kuhl, Erika Schiller, and Anna Stablum for thoughtful, nuanced conversations with industry leaders and subject matter experts that explore the complexities about the risks and opportunities connected to (E)nvironmental, (S)ocial and (G)overnance. We like to say that “ESG is everything that’s not on your balance sheet.” This leaves room for misunderstanding and oversimplification – two things that we’ll bust on this podcast.
