The show is hosted by Shegerian, Co-Founder and Executive Chairman of ERI, the nation's leading fully integrated IT and electronics asset disposition provider and cybersecurity-focused hardware destruction company.

Barnuevo manages GM's corporate sustainability strategy function including short term and long term goal setting and the development of key initiatives to achieve progress in goal-specific areas important to advance the company's vision toward a future with Zero Emissions. In addition to that, she is responsible for GM's sustainability corporate reporting and engagement with external stakeholders including investors and industry associations. Marczewski provides engineering support for GM's Zero Waste program on a global level.

"We believe that collaboration is the most important force to mitigate climate change," said Marczewski. "Sharing our story and hearing from others is a fundamental part of collaboration and learning. John was an inspiring host and we look forward to learning more from other participants in future episodes."

"It was an honor to have Geraldine and Breitner on our show," said Shegerian. "The important work they are doing at GM is a perfect example of a company doing things the right way and a signal of many great things to come for the automotive industry."
