Building to a greener future

Guests: Chandra Ramadurai and Tim Stoate

According to a recent study, the transportation sector worldwide is responsible for approximately 16 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions, while building and infrastructure account for 21 percent. Why then, does transportation receive 61 percent of all investment funding aimed at making it greener, while building and infrastructure receive only four percent? Is this an overlooked opportunity?

Enter Chandra Ramadurai and Tim Stoate, the CEO and Vice President of Development respectively of Efficiency Capital, a spin-off from The Atmospheric Fund. In this episode of “Responsible Investing for a Sustainable Economy,” they talk to host Tim Nash about how they've turned financing greener building initiatives into economic success.
