Picture yourself embarking on a journey to the heart of sustainability with our fascinating guest, Simon, the founder of Handprint. Simon's odyssey from the heartland of Belgium to a lecturing post at Singapore Management University has gifted him a deep understanding of the environment, economic structures, and the role businesses can play in knitting these woven threads together. We'll share valuable insights from his world travels and experiences in an orphanage in South America, unearthing lessons on community, resilience, and the humbling beauty of human connection.
This episode questions the status quo, challenges the well-worn paths of environmental dialogue, and highlights the importance of embracing innovative approaches in the fight against climate change. We explore the power of nature's positive feedback cycles and the potential economic and human life benefits they can unleash. From the heated debate of switching from nuclear to coal, to the potential consequences of reducing the use of fertilizers in agriculture, and the exciting possibility of transforming farmland into sustainable tourism or nature rewilding—no stone is left unturned.
Finally, we take a deep look at the innovative strategies employed by Handprint to promote sustainability. We discuss their unique business model, which combines technology and business to foster transparency and accountability in the environmental space. You'll hear about their upcoming product, a novel banking card that contributes to positive impact projects with each transaction. We also discuss their collaborations with various industries and their efforts to foster a marketplace where NGOs set the price for a unit of impact. Join us, as we navigate these complex waters with Simon, gaining invaluable insights and sparking thought-provoking discussions about our shared future.
