Roger Ballentine Speaking Topics

  • Climate Capitalism

    Markets and the pursuit of profit significantly contributed to the climate challenge. But we can now see how companies can actually increase value and competitiveness by integrating climate change into business strategy. Climate capitalism is about harnessing markets and profit to help solve the climate problem.

  • Sustainability is a Business Strategy Not Philanthropy

    "Sustainability" is best understood as a strategy for creating value and increasing market share. It is not your grandfather's "corporate social responsibility."

    Many environmental advocates are stuck in the past, when the private sector was the problem and strict regulatory hammers were needed to reduce negative impacts. Today, the private sector must also be seen as a key partner in solving problems like climate change and a needed source of capital for the clean energy transition.
