225. Can the Outdoor Industry Really Call Itself a Climate Leader?
About this episode
The episode explores whether the outdoor industry can truly be considered a climate leader amidst its growth-driven nature.
In this solo episode, I reflect on my experience attending the Switchback Event and unpack a question I can't seem to shake: Can an industry built on perpetual growth truly call itself a climate leader? I explore why climate communication often falls short—even within companies that publicly champion environmental values. And this episode also takes a more nuanced look at the historical values that continue to shape outdoor recreation today. Rather than offering easy answers, this episode invites listeners to wrestle with the difficult questions that too often go unasked.
