Watch, Listen & Learn how the Land Betterment Corp saw an opportunity to take the environmental and socio-economic blighted area where the Appalachian Mountain coal mining sites had been shuttered and create thriving businesses and private-public development initiatives. Where some saw contaminated unusable land, significant skill-set gap, and despair driven drug addictions, Kirk Taylor & Mark Jensen saw an opportunity to turn around the region they grew up in. In this interview, we talk about overcoming the challenges of a community that has lost its way and its vision for a prosperous future. As we deal with the economic devastation caused by the 2020 COVID 19 pandemic, a shifting of commerce, consumer & labor behavioral change that could leave many industries and regions a shell of their former selves, it is imperative to rethink the old and tackle the problems with bright ideas and vision for the future. Bees are an integral component of our food chain. Bees are by far the most significant animal pollinators and critical to the ecosystem. Their numbers have been on the decline for decades due to humans' destruction of their natural habitat, black carbon air pollution, and excessive use of toxic pesticides. Kirk & Mark are using their company to solve multiple problems with their launch of Pollinate to create sustainable bee habitats to benefit the local ecosystems, heal the land, and give hopeless people hope with fulfilling work and income stability. Through out this broadcast, entrepreneurs and investors are encouraged to look how they invest their time and money to have the greatest impact as we seek to invigorate damaged regions and industries.

Land Betterment Corp is an environmental solutions company fostering positive impact through upcycling former coal mining sites into sustainable businesses that enhance the existing skill set of the residents in the community and low impact housing that directly benefits those in the community. Kirk Taylor, President & CFO, brings his knowledge as a licensed CPA, years as a successful entrepreneur and specific experience in taking a company public to the bold vision for Land Betterment.
