Introducing Terence Jeyaretnam, the next contributor featured in our recent release 'No More Greenwashing: Driving evidance-based practice in ESG & Impact Investing' (which you can download for free at http://bit.ly/nomoregreenwashing). Terence works across a great variety of groups aligned with creating positive impact in the world, and his positions include:

- Board member with the Office for Environmental Programs at University of Melbourne
- Chair of the Sustainability Committee with the Group of 100

Apparently he can do all that because "I don't watch much TV and I'm really boring" though I think that undersells his contribution somewhat :D
In the second half of the interview, we go into the retrospective nature of punitive regulatory compliance, the director level resistance to making any Net Zero claims due to liability, the contrast of geographies, tips on compliance requirements, divestment, the opportunity of developing nations to leap-frog the challenges of our societies and the fundamental of change as Terence sees it; personal responsibility.
