209: How One Executive Transformed Corporate Climate Strategy with Alexia Kelly
While corporate companies chase returns and profits, there are those few who chase sustainability, and even fewer who get it right. In this episode, we sit down with Alexia Kelly, Managing Director of the High Tide Foundation and former Netflix sustainability executive, to explore the complex world of greenhouse gas accounting and carbon credits. Backed by her extensive and high-stakes experience in key sustainability events and milestones, her insights offer an understanding of how leading companies are investing in nature-based solutions, why standardized carbon market rules are crucial for scaling climate action, and how corporate sustainability initiatives can drive real-world impact.
This conversation takes us into the future of climate finance and environmental impact measurement.
