Launching Our New Podcast Series “Follow the Data”

Starting today, podcast fans and listeners on-the-go can download our new show: Follow the Data – a podcast about how our work is driving change and making an impact in the areas of education, the arts, the environment, public health and government innovation.

Here’s how the podcast works: our founder, Mike Bloomberg, is a strong believer that “if you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it,” and data-driven strategies are at the core of our work. Each episode will begin with a key data point that gives insight into a problem we’re addressing through our unique approach. From there, our guests – some of whom you will recognize as our program leads and partners – will share their expertise and stories on how our work together impacts the data.

In the first episode, we join a conversation between Bloomberg Philanthropies’ environment program lead Antha Williams and the Sierra Club’s Beyond Coal director Mary Anne Hitt as they discuss how our work with the Sierra Club’s Beyond Coal campaign is working to end America’s reliance on coal and shifting the U.S. power sector to a cleaner future.
