Capitalism is in crisis and blamed for everything, from environmental devastation to social inequality. But what if it could be hacked, and made to it fulfil its promises of a better life? Sustainable finance expert Leo Johnson seeks solutions, in Hacking Capitalism.

From the fields, to the factory and on to finance, Leo Johnson seeks out the hacks to capitalism which could make it deliver on its promise to deliver better lives for people around the globe.

Leo explores how ancient farming techniques in India and France could reverse climate change; how revolutionary methods used to develop new technology in China may unlock prosperity for millions across Africa, and how a new plan to combine crypto currency and forest protection could hack the heart of capitalism itself - the world's financial system.
