International travel is back. Is that a good thing?

<p>In the first season of Heart of Business, we talked a lot about travel. We had wanderlust, but we were trapped at home. But now that we're able to start getting back out there, should we?</p><p>Tourism alone accounts for 8% of the world’s carbon emissions. On a 2500 mile flight, just one passenger’s share of emissions melts a square foot of arctic summer sea ice cover. But tourism is also 10% of the global GDP. Local communities and supply chains rely on that money. But again, not all of it is going back into those economies—70% of all money spent by tourists in Thailand leaves Thailand; 80% from the Caribbean. </p><p>What does sustainable, purposeful travel look like post COVID?</p><p>To find out, we talked to Zach Smith and Sam Blenkinsopp, both founders and CEOs of the next-generation travel companies <a href="https://www.anywhere.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Anywhere</a> and <a href="https://trippin.world/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Trippin</a>, respectively.</p><p>In this episode, Sam mentions some resources for purposeful travelers.

How to work when you can't work happier

<p>Front's founding motto was "work happier." But is that even possible for people whose communities face discrimination and violence on a daily basis? In this episode, we talk to Front employees, leadership, and mental health experts to find out.</p><p>This episode contains frank and candid discussions of violence against Black and Asian Americans, and the mental health struggles that accompany working and existing as a person of color when those events happen. If you’re struggling with mental health at work, here are two free resources discussed in the episode:</p><p><a href="https://www.empowerwork.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Empower Work</a></p><p><a href="https://mhanational.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Mental Health America</a></p><p>If you’re looking to be an ally or to support racial justice and equality, please consider supporting and donating to Empower Work and Mental Health America or one of the following organizations:</p><p><a href="https://www.naacpldf.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund</a></p><p><a href="https://stopaapihate.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Stop Asian Hate</a></p>

An oral history of Save Our Stages Fest

<p>In Fall 2020, the National Independent Venue Association (NIVA) teamed up with YouTube to produce the SaveOurStages Festival — quite possibly the biggest virtual music festival of all time — to raise money for the Save Our Stages Act: life-saving federal aid for the nation’s independent music venues. They were the first businesses to close due to COVID-19 and they’ll be the last to open. Nothing exemplifies the heart of business more than artists, legislators, corporations, and fans coming together to save live music.</p><p>And there’s so much to talk about, from the logistics of organizing such an event with 30+ major artists, the technology to stream it around the world, and the ultimate goal of lobbying the US Congress to get involved and pass this legislation.</p><p>Many venues still haven't received financial assistance, so the emergency relief fund is still accepting donations to distribute to the most at-risk venues. Please consider donating here: https://www.nivassoc.org/</p><p>Watch SOS Fest on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCD5tcuAKGw&amp;list=PL30kw0f7AkXqfLRKTnf9-ZB3p5uaQrYZc</p><p>Subscribe to Front Page for new episodes, bonus content and much more: front.com/blog</p>
