Zack Parisa, CEO of NCX, spoke with his former Yale School of Forestry classmate, Michael Coren, climate journalist and member of the PopTech Braintrust, this past December.

Zack presented on the good, bad, and ugly of carbon offsets and why he believes in forests, natural capital markets, and working with landowners as an essential solution to climate change. He states, “I’m an optimist, these markets will work, because we need them and necessity is the mother of invention.”

The presentation was followed by a question and answer session with Michael.
