4. Carbon Intelligence with Cedara

Green About Media is back for 2023 and this week, we explore a new type of industry; Carbon Intelligence providers.
We hear from Cedara CEO and Global Advisor David Shaw and Eric Shih and what role Carbon Intelligence plays in shifting the global economy toward a sustainable economy. There is a marked shift across all areas of the economy and as with any revolutionary change, those that act fast and change with the tide will come out on top and those that sit on the sidelines and make excuses will suffer.
In this episode of the podcast Eric and David talk about the changing landscape and what businesses need to do in order to catch the boat.
