Is ESG investing good for biodiversity? http://kpp.active-interactive.com/podcasts-featuring-ken/33-is-esg-investing-good-for-biodiversity-ken-pucker/ Tue, 06 Jun 2023 15:13:14 +0000 http://kpp.active-interactive.com/?p=439 ESG is the latest buzzword in business & biodiversity circles, but it’s not actually new – only newly popular. And it’s one among many terms and acronyms in this field, which may be familiar but are often poorly understood – ESG stands for “environmental, social and governance” investing criteria. Understanding concepts like ESG is consequential because their success relies largely on convincing the general public of their value and their virtue. As we discuss in this episode, however, they are not necessarily all that they’re made out to be.

To elucidate this topic with me is Ken Pucker. Ken is a professor at the Fletcher School at Tufts University and Advisory Director at the Boston-based Financial Services firm, Berkshire Partners. He was previously Chief Operating Officer of the outdoor footwear and apparel company, Timberland, one of the first companies to take an interest in sustainable production. He has written extensively on ESG and related issues in Harvard Business Review among other publications.
