Climate Conversations
Description
Will large corporations revamp their business models in response to dire warnings about climate change? This program profiles several companies who have done just that. Nike's China division cut its carbon footprint by 50%, in part by recycling sneakers, while Novo Nordisk has partnered with the world's largest offshore wind farm in a mutually beneficial arrangement to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Representatives from China Solar Power, Tetra Pak, and Hewlett-Packard also weigh in with the ecologically sound strategies the companies have developed, along with their motives for doing so. Commentary from climate change experts is featured throughout.
