Episode notes

Today marks the anniversary of our podcast launch in 2019. Since then, we’ve released more than 250 episodes, and the show has been downloaded nearly 2 million times around the globe.

We’re celebrating these milestones and the evolution of the ESG Insider podcast by launching a new name: the All Things Sustainable podcast. Our new name reflects an idea we’ve heard repeatedly from guests over the past six seasons: Solutions to big sustainability challenges like climate change, nature and biodiversity loss and achieving a just and equitable transition require action from all sectors and all stakeholders.

Today we bring you highlights from our first live podcast event under the new All Things Sustainable name. We brought together four guests in front of an audience in New York City on Feb. 6 to ask: How are you navigating the changing sustainability landscape?

Our guests share their outlook on evolving sustainability standards; their investment approach in a fraught political environment; their strategies for net-zero and decarbonization targets; and the role that technology and AI can play in finding solutions to big sustainability challenges like climate resilience.

Tune in to hear from:

*Neil Stewart, Director of Corporate Outreach for the IFRS Foundation, which houses the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB)

*Marina Severinovsky, Head of Sustainability – North America at Schroders

*Jonah Smith, Vice President and Global Head of Environmental Social Governance at IBM

*Brian DiMarino, Managing Director and Deputy Director of Global Sustainability, Strategy and Operations at JPMorganChase

“Our focus on sustainability is steadfast,” Brian tells us.

Tune in next week to hear more of our interview with Brian from JPMorganChase.

And please like, share and subscribe to All Things Sustainable wherever you get your podcasts.
