Social impact communications needs to up its game, but what is the best approach to affecting real change? Cosmic Founder and Creative Director Eric Ressler sits down with the host of the Business Fights Poverty podcast Katie Hyson for conversation filled with tactics for developing a branding and communications campaign that spurs on action. Eric packs this podcast with his experience at Cosmic in developing highly impactful communications on social and environmental issues. He also provides a deeply honest assessment of how California experiences environmental and social issues, and shares his thoughts on state level progress on climate and social issues could be tackled.

“If we paint climate as this issue that is completely outside our control, that’s inevitable, that it’s too late... that doesn’t actually help because it’s not inspiring people to take action.”
