On this episode of #DWYCFTP, Mo McCarthy and I unpack all things ESG. ESG stands for Environmental, Social & Governance criteria used to evaluate a company’s operations. Specifically, Mo and I take a look at how the cannabis industry is a perfect storm of ESG issues and presents an opportunity for socially conscious investors to shape the future of finance. Making ANY industry more sustainable and equitable starts by examining what’s material and who needs to be at the decision-making table. The tumultuous history of racially biased arrests and a war on drugs make the conversation around equity even more important as investors evaluate the emerging cannabis sector.
