Making the Business Case for Sustainability with Leslie Skardon (Sustain SC)

On this episode, we are joined by Leslie Skardon, the chief executive officer at Sustain SC, which works to ensure a sustainable future for both our economy and our environment. As Leslie describes Sustain SC’s mission and roadmap, she dives into what it means for businesses to be both sustainable and profitable. (Hint: choosing the environment can also mean choosing profit!) Covering topics on energy, conservation, innovation, collaboration, metrics, and even some recent poll results, Leslie gives us hope that together we can see sustainable businesses, a resilient state, and a healthy environment.
