Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Navigating Net Zero: Dr. Lea Borkenhagen’s Playbook from Nike to Nonprofits & Reasons for Optimism
Q: What is the role of audits in the apparel sector, and how did Nike address the proliferation of different audits?
Nike pushed for industry-wide alignment around a single audit to reduce vendor fatigue and create trusted data, while allowing brands to retain their own code of conduct. This facilitated better visibility and accountability across the supply chain.
Navigating Net Zero: Dr. Lea Borkenhagen’s Playbook from Nike to Nonprofits & Reasons for Optimism
Q: How did Nike approach labor issues in its contract factories, and what were the key outcomes?
Nike shifted toward valuing workers and viewing labor as a strategic input. This perspective, championed by leadership, led to significant improvements in productivity and quality, with innovations deployed across many sites and a demonstrable uplift in performance.
Navigating Net Zero: Dr. Lea Borkenhagen’s Playbook from Nike to Nonprofits & Reasons for Optimism
Q: What motivated you to pursue sustainability work early in your career, and how did that lead to roles in both NGOs and big brands?
She describes a deep, early curiosity about how markets drive resource use and a desire to move beyond activism into practical, scalable change within companies, which led to roles at Oxfam, the Palm Oil Roundtable, and later Nike where she could influence factory practices from within the system.
Navigating Net Zero: Tisha Schuller on Real Climate Progress and the Messy Middle
Q: And I want to talk about that a little bit because I'd love to have you walk us through kind of what is the story that the oil and gas industry tells itself about where we are with respect to addressing climate and the energy transition.
Tisha explains that the industry has evolved from a narrative of dominance to one needing to engage with climate stakeholders, emphasizing practical steps, shared challenges, and the need to bridge divides rather than polarize. She notes that the industry has faced backlash but has also pursued methane reduction, CCS, and other decarbonization efforts, while stressing that collaboration with environmental groups and communities is essential for meaningful progress.
Navigating Net Zero: Chris Davis & Transparency in Corporate Climate Action
Q: What was most surprising to you about your time at Amazon and where were some of the biggest challenges that you ran into?
Chris mentions the speed at which business needs to operate compared to policy slowdowns and the challenge of making a compelling business case for sustainability within a large company.
