Their strategy equips entrepreneurs with the knowledge to objectively define, visualize, and forecast the ecological effects of their product or service, allowing them to make long-term decisions at every stage of the process. In 2017, Fridtjof traveled the world to film a TV series documenting the world’s progress toward achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
