Are there some practices or policies within sustainability as an industry that you feel are only in place to make money?

Heck yes. In general when policies are designed to benefit a company, they are NOT designed to benefit the end user (customer or resident). Sustainability still operates within the framework of capitalism and companies do not take on the full financial implications that would incentivize more people to take on sustainability practices at an individual level. That burden gets pushed down further and further so that the end user has to spend money and time to be sustainable when it should be the standard practice.

Today, I showed a TED Talk about the Guatemalan genocide. We were discussing the role of forensic anthropologists. It made such an impact on my students. I teach in a super red state and district and often my students do not see the pain of our Central American neighbors and why they seek asylum here. I tied their plight to my mom’s post-WWII and asked them why she was welcomed by our current immigrants are not. It was so powerful. One of my LatinoX students told me thank you for today’s lesson.

Hi All,

Was just told to "grow our ESG/CSR" practice at a regional consulting firm, due to my recent grad certification in sustainable biz strategy. Wondering where I should focus us as a services industry for big impact: we have a large product innovation, digital engineering area, and know in the past we've had a lot of lip service to clients and only recorded ESG for their compliance.

Hoping to make a big difference and include CSR/Sust audits and projects beyond for our clients! Any tips?
