2025-02-2037 minThe Sustainability Communicator with Mike HowerWhat ESG investors want, according to GreenBiz's Grant HarrisonOver the past few years, the surge in energy in corporate sustainability has been fueled by renewed investor interest in environmental, social and governance (ESG).

However, the anti-ESG rhetoric and increasing politicization of ESG has caused many companies to backtrack. Many companies continue to guess at what investors want from them on the ESG front. In this episode, Mike chats with Grant Harrison, Vice President of Sustainable Finance and ESG at GreenBiz, to...

Electric Ladies PodcastGeothermal Energy 101 – Sarah Golden, Greenbiz, VP of Energy Geothermal Energy 101 – Sarah Golden, Greenbiz VP of Energy "Geothermal very broadly put, is just the collection of energy from the heat that comes from the earth's core. And so it's, it's tapped into by just going to underground reservoirs and capturing some of that heat. There's a couple of broad categories I'd like to split geothermal into from the outset, and that's geothermal for electricity generation versus geothermal for direct heat applications.

In general, it really comes down to the idea that we need to be extracting less and throwing away less. Right now, we have a straight line of consumption: extract, consume and throw away. In an i...
