businesses, they must “make money”. How does he achieve this, and what is

the broader philosophical implication of this pragmatic approach?

• Bijan’s advice for future leaders in sustainability stresses contributing one’s

existing expertise, regardless of background. How does he illustrate this, and

what is the significance of “data sanitization” in this context?

“Respect the environment so that it will give you back.

It will give you back in a better way, and you will reap the

fruits in the long run.”
