Join the Building Energy Exchange for a WISE (Women in Sustainability & Energy) AMA (Ask Me Anything).
What was life like for a sustainability professional at Pfizer before the Covid-19 pandemic? What, if any, is the sustainability team’s role in the Covid-19 vaccine development process? Has the race for a vaccine and the resources dedicated to that impacted Pfizer’s commitment to sustainability?
Liz Girardi Schoen, Pfizer’s Global Environmental Sustainability Leader and founding board member of BE-Ex, joins us to answer these questions and more.
