In this episode of Earthlings 2.0, we speak with Mary Wilson, founder and CEO of Taza, about why sustainability has become an operational bottleneck for many organizations, and how it can instead become a strategic advantage. As ESG reporting requirements fragment globally and political pressure softens in the U.S., sustainability leaders are increasingly stuck in reactive compliance mode, overwhelmed by shifting regulations, data gaps, and reliance on consultants. Mary explains how Taza’s vertical AI marketplace helps companies move beyond static ESG reports by translating sustainability goals into prioritized, actionable business projects, connecting teams with vetted solution providers, and embedding sustainability into everyday decision-making across the enterprise.
