President & CEO of ClimeCo

You'll hear ClimeCo speak a lot about market-based solutions because oftentimes, to really drive change in the market when a company is looking at ways to decarbonize, the first thing they typically do is look within their own operations. How can they get decarbonized? What's the cost of decarbonization? We call it the marginal abatement. Can they decarbonize with the technologies that exist? Oftentimes, those technologies exist outside of their operations. The benefit of the environmental markets allows companies to invest in projects that have a reasonable marginal cost.

Asst. Professor · Marymount University
Management · Designing Sustainable Systems

My whole idea is to find ways to promote and support entrepreneurship. So, my version of entrepreneurship is designing sustainable systems. There is no need to continue doing the same thing so that we can anticipate the same results of building a traditional business. Now, we have an opportunity to explore how you want your business to be. How do you want the organization? How do you want the mindset of the people that you want to hire? When people take the time–not everybody loves to take the time because we live in this world, we have to get it done–but when you take the time to conversate and build using both logic and creativity and thinking about prospecting, what can be possibilities in the future, then that brings along a good dialogue. It brings people together and empowerment, and good ideas come out that turn into good, profitable companies.

My father made me think very much in terms of what kind of planet we are leaving to our children? And what should we be doing in terms of being custodians of this planet? And that we should not be using up all the resources, but actually trying to conserve them and make the world a better for the next generation.
