Beach cleanups and the voice of nature, with Christopher Banas Moving Water Alliance Podcast
-
- Non-Profit
In this episode, we had an inspiring conversation with Christopher Banas, Investor, Founder, & Environmental Advocate. Chris decided to give up on the corporate grind and, together with Johnathan Humphrey, founded Natural Dividends Inc.
Both Natural Dividends founders saw Nature struggling to thrive and were inspired to bring investment concepts to increase returns for our most valuable investment, our environment. Natural Dividends is an environmental non-profit responsible for organising very successful events on both USA coasts, such as Negative Net Hiking Cleanups and Community events like Beach Cleanups.
Natural Dividends' mission is to empower the local community to Increase Nature’s Share, and to amplify the voices of others who are involved in local initiatives. Its goal is to get a diverse community involved in Increasing Nature’s Share and become a voice for Nature.
“As a community, making small sustainable changes every day will pay large dividends to Nature.” (Natural Dividends White Paper, available here)
