Episode Synopsis

In this week's podcast episode, I speak to Lisa Conway, VP Global Market Sustainability and 'Carbon Lover' about their iconic Mission Zero Sustainability Programme which finished in 2020 and its successor, Climate Take Back. I had the pleasure of working with Interface about 8 years ago, and I've never come across a business so committed to Sustainability or so prepared to change everything to get there – with some glee. I'm not exaggerating, they do things that most organisations would never conceive of, never mind consider. Can you tell I'm a fan?Here's what we discuss:• Lisa's own 'spear in the chest' moment• The legacy of Mission Zero and how a zero target can stimulate radical action• Climate Take Back, regenerative business and why we should learn to love carbon• The Factory as a Forest concept and how it works in practice• The importance of innovation and how features can cascade from premium products to the mainstream• The importance of having funHere's the Factory as a Forest case study that Lisa refers to in the pod.The Net Zero Business Podcast is brought to you by Terra Infirma Ltd - Bringing Sustainability to Life Hosted on Acast.
