Transitioning to a net-zero economy is the greatest economic opportunity of our lifetimes but we need to get it right. Enjoyed my convo w/ @AdamWolfensohn @encouragecap on how @USAID can work w/ private investors to facilitate a just transition to a renewable energy economy.

Thanks @MarkTercek great to work with @nature_org @damanaki and the @encouragecap team on this hopefully path breaking report to catalyze more capital into sustainable aquaculture with the highest science based environmental standards!
Aquaculture is the fastest-growing form of food production. When it’s done right – it can be a huge win for both people & nature. New report from @nature_org & @encouragecap (via @FastCompany) shows us the way: bit.ly/2VRtqoT

Can aquaculture feed the world? Targeted investments should help catalyze a "race-to-the-top" in the sector, and set the standard high for governance moving forward. From @nature_org and @encouragecap: greenbiz.com/article/catalyz…
