S2-E08: Are Sustainability and Social Equity Inextricably Linked?

Madeline Armstrong, Ray Loflin

In Episode 8 of Mastering Sustainability, we welcome Todd Pooser, founder of the Virtual Commonwealth, a sustainability and social equity investment platform where members agree to self-tax on their sustainable purchases. That money is then used to crowdfund companies with strong sustainability and social equity profiles in which all members become equity partners. In this episode, Todd discusses the ethos behind the platform, the ways that sustainability and social equity are inextricably linked, and lays out a plan for a brighter, collectively funded future for all of us.
