Customer Reviews
Some much-needed hope
I am not someone with a ton of hope but this podcast is providing me with a good dose of it, as well as a sense of pride in hearing the accomplishments of my fellow Canadians. Thanks, Dianne!
Worth the listen for hope and ingenuity
We need more people like Dianne, more stories like The Green Economy and more businesses like those interviewed in this podcast!
Great podcast
Just listened to the episode on Li-Cycle lithium ion battery recyclers from Ontario, Canada. Dianne has such a pleasant, smart interview style. I really felt like I got to know Ajay Kochhar (CEO) and the story of the creation of this important battery recycling company. Great stuff!
