In this episode of the Climate Cycle, we talk to Jack Bruner, co-founder at Mammoth Climate. Mammoth empowers companies to achieve their climate goals by mobilizing the workforce.

Mammoth's platform brings climate literacy and specific actions employees can take to reduce emissions into the workday, and helps sustainability teams align these efforts with the company’s specific emissions targets.

We talk about why so many corporate net-zero strategies are failing, how to make the return-on-investment case for sustainability teams, and what it means to build climate culture at work.

Jack also shares his experience leading teams in a fast-growing company, navigating challenging market conditions, and the keys to an effective founding team.
