In this episode, I tackle the ongoing debate surrounding COP conferences—are they a productive force for climate action or an outdated exercise in bureaucracy? We'll look at key criticisms, like the influence of fossil fuel companies and the perceived inefficiency of the process and explore why these meetings might still be one of the most critical tools we have for global change. We'll discuss why change is often slow, why foundations matter more than grand gestures, and how businesses can align their strategies with global targets. Whether you're a seasoned sustainability advocate or just trying to make sense of the headlines, this episode is about finding clarity in the chaos.
