Steve Melink is the Forbes Books author of Fusion Capitalism: A Clean Energy Vision For Conservatives, and founder/CEO of Melink Corporation, a Cincinnati, Ohio-based company considered a pioneer in renewable energy solutions for the commercial building industry. He also is a national speaker on sustainability, clean energy and zero-energy buildings, and has consulted with federal and state legislators. So often renewable energy is politicized: if you're on the left, you must support green energy, if you're on the right, you must support fossil fuels. But Steve shows us that renewable energy has nothing to do with politics: it's the energy of the future. It's cleaner, healthier for us, and most importantly (from an economic standpoint), it's cheaper!  Find Steve Melink Online:  The Melink Corp.

Joshua Sam Miller

Sam Miller

Joshua Sam Miller is an environmental activist, mindful musician and immersive media producer dedicated to raising world-wide environmental awareness by curating immersive sound and visual experiences in support of ocean conservation. His work as a multi-disciplinary artist and conscious entrepreneur is motivated to support a healthier, more sustainable world. He believes that modern society has created an unhealthy model that leads too often towards stress, burnout and environmental pollution. Featured all over the world - and debuting at Burning Man 2019 - his work seeks to inspire more connection, love and understanding between human beings and the natural world.   Just in time for World Oceans Day, Miller aims to raise environmental awareness and inspire connection with Sounds of the Ocean - Live in Concert – an album that tells the story of what is really happening in our underwater world by pairing recordings of whales, dolphins and ocean sound with live instruments such as clarinet, handpan, piano, kalimba, singing bowls and saxophone. With 100% of profits going directly to support ocean conservation groups around the world, Miller invites listeners to listen mindfully and offer oneself permission to enjoy the experience and soak up the good vibes, while being open to making a few adjustments in our daily lives to help these creatures thrive for many generations to come. From this place of awareness and abundance, the hope is we realize the impact we are having on the ocean and can commit to better protection around the world.  Find Joshua Sam Miller Online:  Joshua Sam Miller's Homepage Joshua's Album, Sounds of The Ocean  Find me online:  This Sustainable Life: Solve For Nature Podcast: https://anchor.fm/solvefornature Blog: https://verdantgrowth.blog/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC24IiwM0BPQ-_3DVz2KnuVw Twitter: https://twitter.com/VerdantGrowth Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/realverdantgrowth Instagram: http://instagram.com/verdant.growth or http://instagram.com/verdantgrowthofficial--- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/solvefornature/support

The Music of The Ocean w/ Joshua Sam Miller

Veeral Hardev is the VP of Strategy at Ubiquitous Energy. He has over a decade of experience commercializing novel nano-materials products for the electronics industry. Why's that important? Because Ubiquitous Energy and the group of MIT and MSU scientists that started it, are looking for new ways to reduce humanity’s carbon footprint by seamlessly integrating solar power technology into everyday products and surfaces.  Ubiquitous Energy is the world leader in transparent solar technology working towards a goal of helping solve climate change by creating truly transparent renewable energy for every surface across the globe. Ubiquitous Energy’s patented technology, UE Power™, is the world’s first invisible electricity-generating alternative to traditional windows. UE Power™ harvests solar energy and serves as an invisible, onboard source of electricity for greater energy efficiency. Founded by scientists from MIT, Ubiquitous Energy is now producing its highly transparent, efficient solar cells in a production facility in Silicon Valley.

Neil Sims

Neil Sims is a marine biologist with a professional commitment to "softening mankind's footprint on the seas". After working in fisheries management he began to recognize the need for us all to move "more towards a culture of nurture" of marine resources rather than a purely extractive approach. As marine finfish stocks worldwide continued to decline, Neil and his partners saw both opportunity and imperative to apply their invertebrate hatchery and growout expertise to help solve the world's looming seafood crisis and formed Ocean Era, formerly Kampachi Farms. Ocean Era focuses on the global need for expanded production of high-value, marine fin-fish, and pursuit of "next generation" technologies, including: remote offshore culture systems, more sustainable and scale-able feeds, and new species based in Hawaii. Through innovative research, and application of the best available science, Ocean Era strives to remain on the cutting edge of healthy, environmentally responsible seafood.

Sustainable Disruption in Business - David Radlo, Part 1

Many large companies are transitioning to renewable/clean energy as the world confronts climate change. But what about the small and medium-sized companies that may not have the money to switch to renewable energy? What are the benefits to convince them? Business owners have concerns about the up-front expenses of switching to clean energy, but those concerns are outweighed by the money savings and other advantages they would realize, says Steve Melink, ForbesBooks author of Fusion Capitalism: A Clean Energy Vision For Conservatives, and founder/CEO of Melink Corporation, a company considered a pioneer in renewable energy solutions for the commercial building industry. We had a great talk about renewables, how renewables are the right choice to make for a better future, and how you can make your business more sustainable! Tune in!

Efficient Buildings Fighting Climate Change - Steve Melink, Part 1

Today I'm talking with Iza and Samo Login, two Slovenian tech entrepreneurs who founded Outfit7 and created the Talking Tom app, which has been downloaded over 13 billion times. In just 7 years, they sold their startup for $1 billion dollars to a Chinese investment group in order to dedicate themselves to philanthropic pursuits, with their largest priority being to establish a new model of sustainable, organic, large-scale farming to create the future of sustainable agriculture. They published a book called 7 Unicorn Drive, which details how their unique approach to business and leadership paved the way to financial success. How did they manage to sell a 250,000 dollar company for 1 billion dollars? How are they using technology to create the future of agriculture and repair our unsustainable food systems? Whats the mindset we all need to adopt if we're going to become a sustainable species on this planet? We talked about all this and more, including taking on a challenge to make their own personal lives more sustainable. So sit back and enjoy my talk, with Iza and Samo Login.
