Episode notes

The speakers discuss how decarbonization can benefit businesses and emphasize the importance of sustainability as a long-term strategy. They also highlight the need to translate insights from New York Climate Week into their organization.

This week the ESG Insider podcast is on the ground at Climate Week NYC for a special series of interviews from the sidelines of The Nest Climate Campus. In this episode, we sit down with Matt Helgeson. Matt is Head of Sustainability for Siemens USA, the US arm of the German conglomerate Siemens AG, a technology company focused on industry, infrastructure, transport and healthcare.

Matt talks to us about what he’s hearing from Climate Week NYC so far and the challenges presented by Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions, which are the emissions that occur up and down a company's supply chain as well as when a customer uses the company’s products. He also shares his perspective on what needs to happen to make Climate Week NYC a success.
