The fly-fishing, mountain-climbing, and whitewater-kayaking founder of Patagonia is giving away his (and his family’s) entire stake in the company he built.
Yvon Chouinard, Patagonia’s founder, announced all future profits will be donated to help fight climate change.
The decision comes after a two-year process sparked by his appearance on Forbes’s billionaire’s list. “I was in Forbes magazine listed as a billionaire, which really, really pissed me off,” he told the Times.
