Amid global challenges, corporate sustainability faces a massive shift. How can businesses navigate media scrutiny, political pressure, and boardroom backlash to redefine their approach?

In this episode, Lou and Mark Lancelot from Better Business Design discuss how the Chief Sustainability Officer's role is evolving. They explore reshaping the narrative around sustainability and circular economy goals for positive boardroom reception.

The Ellen MacArthur Foundation, an international charity, accelerates the transition to a circular economy to address climate change, waste, and pollution.

FAO Chief Economist Maximo Torero delivered a video message for the International Day of the Potato, celebrated at the FAO FoodS Lab. The theme, "Where potatoes grow, livelihoods flourish," highlights the crop's vital global role in supporting farmers and value chain actors, from its Andean origin to communities worldwide.

Promoting sustainable potato production and strengthening value chains helps reduce poverty, build resilience, and foster inclusive, sustainable agrifood systems.

Data centers are significant energy consumers. By designing them for flexibility, their power demand can align with the availability of clean energy on the grid. Non-urgent computing tasks can be paused or accelerated, allowing data centers to slow down when renewables are scarce and speed up when abundant, transforming them into valuable grid assets.

Professor Ayse Coskun, Chief Scientist at Emerald AI and a Boston University professor, is a leader in this emerging field of flexible, grid-aware computing. Her research applies AI and machine learning to optimize cloud systems, making this innovative approach a real-world solution.
