WisBusiness: The Podcast with Tom Eggert, executive director of the Wisconsin Sustainable Business Council

This week’s episode of “WisBusiness: The Podcast” features a chat with Tom Eggert, executive director of the Wisconsin Sustainable Business Council.

He explains the academic origin of the council, which had over 160 companies participate in its Green Masters program in 2016, and talks about the push toward sustainability in Wisconsin.

“So you have all these pressures on companies to act in a sustainable way, then the question becomes: What does that mean? What are they doing?” Eggert said. “Supply chain sustainability right now I think is kind of the hot issue for businesses — driven for a large part by WalMart and the pressures they are putting on.”
