The Essential Podcast, Episode 33: Five Years of Cautious Optimism & ESG Trends to Watch in 2021 and Beyond

Prior to the global pandemic, environmental, social, and governance (ESG) metrics were enjoying a cultural moment as more companies and investors committed to including such factors in their goals and decisions.
