Can Capitalism Solve the Climate Crisis? | Jamie Alexander, Director, Drawdown Labs

Few debates are more charged than capitalism vs. climate change. Is capitalism compatible with a world in the throes of a climate crisis? Can endless economic growth persist on a finite planet?  We know that we can't grow our way out of this crisis. But it will take trillions of dollars to mitigate and adapt to a changing climate, so climate tech professionals  — solutions providers, startups and investors — may be perfectly positioned to reimagine capitalism to be compatible with thriving life on our planet.

Good ideas. But how did the speaker and all the audience arrived to the Conference? ✈️ It's somehow not a Zoom event.
