Episode Description
What if solving climate change wasn’t about sacrifice, but about building a more abundant, prosperous future?
In this episode of Mission Driven You, I talk with entrepreneur and storyteller Josh Dorfman—founder of Supercool and co-founder of Planted—about why we’ve entered a new era he calls climate adoption. The debate is no longer if we’ll make the transition, but how fast.
Josh shares stories of breakthrough companies and cities already leading the way: electrifying thousands of port trucks, reinventing the yellow school bus, deploying AI that cuts energy use in skyscrapers, and creating carbon-negative building materials from fast-growing grass. These aren’t marginal experiments—they’re profitable, scalable solutions changing how we live.
This conversation will shift how you think about climate—from doom and despair to innovation, economics, and hope.
