The efforts to restore and regenerate the planet must not only fall upon the shoulders of the consumers. Corporations that use the earth’s resources in huge quantities must also actively participate in building a healthy environment for everyone. Corinna Bellizzi dives into this topic with Forbes contributor Esha Chhabra. She talks about her book, Working to Restore, which showcases mission-driven companies who achieved success in their regenerative approaches. Esha explains how to make such solutions mainstream to fix the broken sustainability model and the confusing certification industry.
