This IDEA 2030 compendium, third in the collection, studied three companies (ThredUp, Husk Power Systems and Nexsis) that are leveraging digital technology for a more sustainable future. Some learnings include that (1) digital technologies are a force multiplier for climate-conscious businesses; and (2) pay-as-you-go pricing makes dramatic quality-of-life improvements accessible to all while encouraging sustainability.
