Nobel Peace laureate Muhammad Yunus is convinced that global poverty can be overcome. He spoke with Earth & Sky about what he calls a “social business” – one created not to turn a profit but to address a social need.

Yunas talked with Earth & Sky’s Jorge Salazar about a social business he created in 2006 with the French yogurt maker Danone.
