What Could Possibly Go Right?

#17 Claudine Schneider: Reacting with Positive Solutions


Listen Later

Claudine Schneider was the first woman elected from Rhode Island to the U.S. House of Representatives and was the first Republican Representative to serve the state in more than 40 years. She is Co-Founder of the Republicans for Integrity and is a progressive leader in policies related to climate, energy, environment and ecological economics.

Claudine brings the themes of racial inequality, job development, politics and the environment to this conversation on “What Could Possibly Go Right?, including:

  • The Black Lives Matter movement is awakening corporate sensitivities and encouraging change.
  • There are well-thought-out ideas available for national police reforms, focusing on strategy, technology and science.
  • Job losses can be addressed in part by pursuing opportunities in the renewable energy sector and environmental initiatives, such as creation of power micro-grids and net zero energy buildings.
  • Everybody can be an agent of change and needs to remember that as consumers, employees and community members, we can drive positive action.
  • Businesses are increasingly recognizing that corporation action has benefits for both profit and social/environmental progress. 
  • While more people are getting engaged in politics right now, we should continue to educate ourselves and encourage others to register to vote.
