In this episode, Austin Whitman, the CEO of Climate Neutral joins me to chat about how his non-profit is trying to combat climate change by empowering businesses to take responsibility for their climate impact. How are they doing it? By letting their brands doing the marketing work.
We also talk about the value of being a sustainable brand and how it can benefit a company beyond a moral conviction.
From the episode:
"I think the absence of government action against climate change has forced consumers to look for other ways to feel like they are doing something to solve the problem."
"Unless the consumer cares, the business doesn't care."
"The ability to drive major movement has been greatly helped by social media."

As a marketer in the outdoor industry, the odds are stacked against you. Does this sound familiar?
“You’re part of a small, talented, yet overworked team with a limited budget facing hundreds of ways to grow your brand and stand out in a sea of sameness. Some days you feel like quitting and getting a corporate job that pays more but then you realize, I get to work in an industry that some people only dream of working in. Sure the challenges are real, but this is better than a cubicle right?” If this sounds like you, you’re not alone.
