Today's episode is with James Regulinski the Co-Founder of Carbon Collective. Carbon Collective is a financial services firm that helps people ensure they are achieving their financial goals, such as short-term savings or retirement, in a way that is Climate-Aligned. With Carbon Collective you will know that your money is going into places that are good for the climate and not being part of the problem. 

In our discussion with James we discuss, what they are doing at CC, the reasons why to invest in climate-aligned funds, financial literacy, and responsible investing, we also touched on Blockchain tech, and a lot more. 

Overall, great conversation with James. It's really great to see what they are doing. I was personally surprised that this is not something that is already widely adopted. It's great to have this because as we all know, the market needs to demand something for the solutions to be created. 

Today's conversation with James was really fun and insightful for me. I hope you'll find the same.
