Chris Ito & Georges Dyer go “beyond carbon” to discuss topics relating to climate change, net zero, ESG and the benefits and challenges of sustainable investing.
Chris and Georges talk climate and curve balls with major league baseball player Brent Suter. The discussion centers around how athletes can use their platform to raise awareness of environmental issues.
Guest
Brent Suter, Colorado Rockies, LHP
Background
Brent Suter is starting his eight season in major league baseball and his first for the Colorado Rockies.
Brent is a left-handed relief pitcher, a self-proclaimed “tree-hugger” and board member of Players for the Planet. He uses his voice and position as a professional athlete to promote sustainability in the clubhouse and in the community.
Conversation
Chris, Georges and Brent discuss the divisions in our society and the role athletes can play in helping bridge those divides including climate change.
Brent goes deep on the activities of Players for the Planet while also delving into the activities that teams and leagues can play in incorporating sustainability into their operations. He also shares his involvement with community-based programs like the Urban Ecology Center in Milwaukee, where he spent his first 7 big-league seasons.
There’s a little something for everyone, including references to NIL, carbon offsets, the Bengals' DE Sam Hubbard, and how you don’t need to throw a mid-90s heater to be an effective major league pitcher.
