From TechCrunch to Robert Downey Jr.’s Footprint Coalition, Jonathan Shieber says he’s in some sort of purgatory where he’s no longer a reporter, but not a VC either. He’s just “advocating for cool climate s#!*.”

In this episode, Jonathan and I discuss how storytelling informs their investments at Footprint, plus all the remarkable stuff they’re doing to help us get to a climate positive future, and the ‘Simple Minds’ conference coming to a city near you!
