Description:

In this episode, we speak with Lincoln Bleveans, Stanford’s Senior Sustainability Executive, about turning climate ambition into daily action. Stanford’s entire campus operates as a living lab, applying real-time innovations across water, waste, transit, and energy systems.


Inspired by Nordic ideas of “climate citizenship,” Lincoln contrasts long-term cultural thinking with U.S. transactional habits. We explore Stanford’s shift away from fossil fuels and the creation of self-powered infrastructure.
 

Lincoln emphasizes visibility, how making systems transparent helps drive behavioral change.
This episode offers a pragmatic look at institutional leadership, circular thinking, and building sustainability into daily life.​
