   Helping shape a project to rethink the global economy.Our thesis is that vibrant economies and vibrant societies can be simultaneously achieved. To this end, we are developing rigorous economic models and predictive data systems to reveal the true financial costs of social, environmental and other downstream harms across industries. By making these externalities visible and quantifiable, we aim to empower activists, and consumers to design and push for a vibrant future, for governments and policymakers to realize important social and financial outcomes, and for global capital markets to redirect trillions in investment away from damaging activities and toward sustainable alternatives.
