Natural Capitalism with Hunter Lovins

Charting the course to a regenerative economy is one of the most important work facing humanity. It requires a reimagining of energy, agriculture, design, finance, stewardship, and how we work.

A leader within the Regenerative economics and purpose-driven business space is longtime environmentalist Hunter Lovins.

Hunter Lovins is the co-founder of Rocky Mountain Institute, president of Natural Capitalism Solutions, and managing partner of NOW Partners.

For decades, she has worked with communities and companies to encourage them to implement regenerative solutions that are not only sustainable but profitable. She is the author of many books, including A Finer Future: Creating an Economy in Service to Life.

On episode 81 of The Regenerative Real Estate Podcast, show host Neal Collins and Hunter discuss her family upbringing, which brought her into close and casual contact with legendary activists such as Martin Luther King Jr. and Cesar Chavez.

They talk about her career journey, including her time in law school and extensive studies of economics, which set the stage for her influential ideas about the pitfalls of capitalism. They also discuss how citizens and government can shape our economic system into one that is better for people and the planet, today and into the future.
