Is your makeup messing with your hormones? Could your cleaning products be impacting your fertility? And how do we make informed choices without spiraling into fear or perfectionism? In this episode of Brave & Curious, Dr. Lora Shahine invites us to ask bold questions about the everyday products we use—and the hidden chemicals within them. Joining her is activist and author Lindsay Dahl, who's spent her career fighting for consumer safety and pulling back the curtain on toxic chemicals. They talk about the science behind endocrine disruptors, the power of personal storytelling in policy change, and the importance of asking “what's really in this?”—even when the label says “natural.” Lindsay's new book: Cleaning House: The Fight to Rid Our Homes of Toxic Chemicals is full of real life examples, engaging stories, and many resources on safety and advocacy. Listeners will walk away with practical tips for reducing chemical exposure, a deeper understanding of how U.S. regulations compare globally, and an empowering reminder that you don't have to be perfect to make a difference.

Listen to this episode for ways to save money while supporting your values! Co-hosts Tania and Adriana share what companies they boycott and why, and which alternative companies have ethical practices they support. Many of the companies on our boycott lists have documented labor rights violations or support governments rooted in white supremacy and oppressive systems. Boycotting large corporations has opened new ways for us to reconnect with our local communities such as through mutual aid. It's also a great excuse to find new small family-owned businesses to support. Boycotting is a great technique that has worked for many movements in the past, and it's a great way to hold companies accountable for their practices.Remember: the companies you choose to support should hold your values for community care and equal rights.Resources:Boycott List by BDS MovementBoycott List by Ethical ConsumerAnti-DEI Boycott ListWhy to boycott Chiquita and DoleWhy to boycott NestleAlternative Brands by Ethical Consumer15 Ethical & Sustainable Brands by Sustainably ChicBuyNothingListen to our previous episode “Activism, But Make It Fashionable” for clothing brands we don't and do supportVictory!

Dalam episode terbaru INIKOPER, kita akan menyelami dunia perdagangan karbon di sektor Perhutanan Sosial Indonesia. Mekanisme ini bukan hanya kunci bagi Indonesia untuk mencapai target ambisius pengurangan emisi gas rumah kaca dan visi FOLU Net Sink 2030, tetapi juga menawarkan potensi ekonomi yang signifikan bagi masyarakat lokal. Bayangkan, hutan yang lestari tidak hanya menjaga bumi, tetapi juga meningkatkan kesejahteraan komunitas di sekitarnya! Namun, di balik janji cerah ini, tersembunyi berbagai kontradiksi dan tantangan. Mulai dari risiko "greenwashing" dan "karbon hantu" yang mengancam integritas pasar, hingga kekhawatiran "kolonialisme karbon" dan eksploitasi oleh broker yang bisa merugikan masyarakat adat. Fluktuasi harga dan isu kepemilikan karbon juga menjadi dilema etika yang perlu kita bedah tuntas. Bagaimana kita bisa memastikan bahwa perdagangan karbon benar-benar menjadi solusi yang adil dan berkelanjutan bagi hutan dan masyarakat Indonesia? Episode ini akan mengupas pentingnya tata kelola yang kuat, pembagian manfaat yang transparan, serta pemberdayaan kapasitas masyarakat lokal. Jangan lewatkan diskusi mendalam tentang bagaimana Indonesia menavigasi kompleksitas ini demi masa depan yang lebih hijau dan berkeadilan!

Yung Prodigy is calling on the NSW government to provide adjustments to phonecalls to improve availability, accessibility, and connection. In this interview, Maia discusses how important connection is for people who are incarcerated and their communities, how precious and expensive a 10 minute phone call can be, and why we need to act now. Please share the campaign, follow the Yung Prodigy instagram, and make sure to sign the petition. Bree Ahrens, Senior Climate Campaigner at Environment Centre Northern Territory (ECNT), spoke with us about how the Albanese Government's greenwashing of the Bonaparte Carbon Capture and Storage project conceals its potential future as one of the world's largest carbon dumping sites. ECNT is an environmental advocacy organisation fighting alongside local communities to win just solutions to the environmental issues facing the Northern Territory. Alison, an organiser with the Newcastle-based group No Weapons for Genocide, caught up with Priya earlier this week to discuss the militarisation of Newcastle's economy and how this is being resisted by members of the local community. Despite the urgent need for action on a green energy transition, Newcastle, home to the world's largest coal port, has instead seen increasing government incentives redirecting workers and manufacturing capabilities from the extractive industries towards weapons manufacturing. Keep up to date with No Weapons for Genocide on Instagram. Noura Mansour from Democracy in Colour joins us to speak about the implications of the Albanese Government's appointment of Jillian Segal as Special Envoy to Combat Antisemitism. The establishment of the Special Envoy stands in stark contrast to the repeated failure by the Australian Government to address the genocide of First Nations people in so-called Australia, as well as escalating anti-Palestinian and Islamaphobic violence. Since her appointment, Jillian Segal has come under scrutiny due to her recommendation of wide-reaching draconian reforms impacting freedom of speech and political expression, as well as her husband's company's support of right wing group ‘Advance' in the form of a $50,000 donation.

„Wir haben Rauchen sexy gemacht. Wir haben den Diamanten am Ehering zum ultimativen Liebesbeweis inszeniert. Marketing hat Lebensstile geprägt wie kaum etwas anderes. Warum tun wir uns so schwer, CO₂-Reduktion genauso begehrenswert zu erzählen?“, plädiert Birgit Berthold-Kremser. Marketing hat diese Macht. Und genau darin liegt aber auch das Dilemma: Statt Märkte und Gesellschaft mutig zu gestalten, zieht sich die Branche oft zurück und wird zusehends darauf reduziert, hübsche Weißräume auszumalen. ‚Wir sitzen auf einem Innovationsmotor. Es wäre doch absurd, den nicht zu nutzen‘, sagt Stefanie Kuhnhen. In dieser Folge von #WhatsNextAgencies spricht Kim Alexandra Notz mit Birgit Berthold-Kremser, CMO & Sustainability Executive, und Stefanie Kuhnhen, CSO, Serviceplan Germany, über eine Branche zwischen Greenwashing, Greenhushing und großen Purpose-Claims, denen häufig der Mut zur echten Verantwortung fehlt. Die beiden machen klar: Marketing war schon immer mehr als Kommunikation. Auch Nachhaltigkeit ist daher kein weiches Image-Thema, sondern ein ganzheitlicher Wirtschaftsfaktor, den die Märkte ganheitlich einbeziehen müssen: Neben der Promotion auch bei Produkt, Preis und Place. Und gemäß ihres 4x4 Superpower Modells auch in Leadership Principles, Purpose-Findung und Print-Bestimmung mit einfließen muss. Dabei zeigt sich oft, dass kleine Hebel deutlich wirkungsvoller sein können als große Budgets. Schon nachhaltige Produkte an der Kasse können Kaufverhalten und Produktionsprozesse maßgeblich verändern. Trotzdem bleiben viele Marketingverantwortliche zögerlich. Wenig Fachwissen, Angst vor Komplexität, das bequeme Festhalten am ‚Weiter so‘ und eine Branche, die sich häufig treiben lässt, verhindern, dass Marketing seine Rolle als echter Steuerungshebel wahrnimmt. Und damit ein strategisches Zukunftsthema in jedem Unternehmen bedient! Genau hier liegt jedoch die Chance: Marketing kann sich neu erfinden, damit neue Relevanz in Vorstandsräumen gewinnen und wieder zum Instrument werden, das Märkte aktiv gestaltet. Dazu braucht es auch Agenturpartner, die unbequeme, aber zukunftsweisende Fragen stellen, um die Marke zukunftssicher zu machen. Für alle, die ernsthaft einsteigen wollen, bietet das Gespräch konkrete Ansätze: Zertifikate, die Agenturen jetzt wirklich prüfen sollten: ISO 14001, EcoVadis, STBI, Global Compact, ISO 27001 (IT-Security), ISO 9001 (PM-Qualität).

In unserer 24. Episode des GZ-Podcasts "Chefsache" geht's darum, wie man als Brauerei bis zum Jahr 2030 zu 100 Prozent klimaneutral werden kann. Einerseits. Und wie man andererseits ebenso zu 100 Prozent Energie-Autark sein kann. Wohl gemerkt: als Brauerei, die, wie der fachkundige Branchenkenner weiß, extrem energieintensiv ist. Nicht mehr und nicht weniger hat sich die Staatsbrauerei Rothaus AG zum Ziel gesetzt, genauer genommen Christian Rasch. Er ist seit 12 Jahren der Alleinvorstand, der auf 1.000 Meter Höhe gelegenen Schwarzwaldbrauerei mit Sitz in Rothaus, die im Übrigen zu 100 Prozent dem Bundesland Baden Württemberg gehört. Rasch ist bereit, bis 2030 gut 40 Millionen Euro in die Nachhaltigkeit seines Unternehmens zu investieren. Natürlich nicht zum Selbstzweck, da ist Rasch ganz Schwabe: es muss sich lohnen. Was es tut. Beispiele gefällig? Bereits im Jahr 2022 erfolgte die Installation einer Photovoltaikanlage mit einer Leistung von 1.560 Kilowatt-Peak auf den Dachflächen der Brauerei. Hierdurch seien laut Rasch im Jahr 2023 circa ein Fünftel der benötigten Energie durch regenerativen Eigenstrom erzeugt worden. Den darüber hinaus benötigten Strom bezieht die Brauerei bereits seit Jahren aus regional erzeugtem Ökostrom. Auch aus dem Betrieb der Kläranlage weiß der im südbadischen Lörrach geborene Hotelbetriebswirt Kapital zu schlagen. Durch die Erweiterung um eine anaerobe Stufe im Jahr 2023 erreicht diese eine Einsparung von 100.000 Liter Heizöl pro Jahr. Was einer CO2-Einsparung von 270 Tonnen im Jahr entspricht. Absolutes Highlight ist aber unbestritten die Umstellung des Flottenbetriebs von Pkw und Lkw auf E-Mobilität. Sind die Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter anfangs voller Skepsis gewesen, ist diese einer regelrechten Euphorie gewichen. Mittlerweile wird sich im positiven Sinne darum gekappelt, wer einen von den fünft eActros von Mercedes für die Bier-Auslieferung fahren darf. Raschs Ziel ist, vor Ort nachhaltig als Unternehmen zu agieren, ohne "Greenwashing" zu betreiben, wie er sagt. Zugegeben, das ist schon ein wenig kühn. Doch der Brauerei-Chef lässt Taten sprechen: So pflanze Rothaus weder Bäume im Urwald, noch nutze es Zertifikate als CO2-Kompensation, macht der ehemalige Radeberger-Manager deutlich. Wichtig sei ihm, so Rasch, die Qualität der Zäpfle-Bierrange trotz Klimawandel zu gewährleisten und aufrecht zu halten. Der Gerstensaft verteuere sich auch durch die mehr als 40-Umweltmaßnehmen nicht, verspricht Rasch. Im Gegenteil, auf dem Weg zur absoluten Energie-Autonomie spare man mittlerweile sogar Strom ein. Raschs Formel: Energie, die wir nicht verbrauchen, kostet nichts. Raschs Wunsch: Trinkt Rothaus-Bier für ein besseres Klima. Ganz nach dem Rothaus-Motto: Immer mit der Ruhe.
From 2009-2015 Volkswagen cheated on emissions tests to convince customers to buy 11 million VW cars they thought burned clean diesel. Kimberley Kinsley says “Dieselgate” was the largest ever case of corporate greenwashing. Also: Big tech companies often boast they're using technologies that can save the planet. But Jesse Goldstein argues that the allure of AI–which requires energy hungry data centers–will lead to more and more excuses for why they have to keep fossil fuels flowing. Later in the show: The can-do innovation that emerged after World War II came to define American identity. In his new book, Every American an Innovator, Matthew Wisnioski traces how that culture of innovation we once celebrated is facing a backlash. Plus: For decades, children have traveled with a wacky teacher named Miss Frizzle, who drives the Magic School Bus. Michael Meindl explains how The Magic School Bus became one of the most successful informal science education initiatives ever.

Mario Jung (OMT GmbH) spricht heute mit Dr. Torsten Beyer (Dr. Beyer Internet-Beratung) über die überraschende Zusammenhänge zwischen Suchmaschinenoptimierung und Nachhaltigkeit. Obwohl bei SEO-Diskussionen Nachhaltigkeit nicht immer als erstes Thema in den Sinn kommt, zeigt das Gespräch, dass sich beide Bereiche durchaus ergänzen. Prinzipien wie Reduce, Reuse, Recycle – im Deutschen: vermeiden, wiederverwenden, recyceln – weisen nicht nur in puncto Umweltschutz den Weg, sondern lassen sich auch effektiv auf den digitalen Fußabdruck anwenden. Für Dich als Online-Marketer bietet das Interview wertvolle Einblicke, wie nachhaltige Ansätze zu einer ressourcenschonenden und zugleich leistungsstarken Webseitengestaltung führen können. Es wird deutlich, dass eine Strategie, die auf Nachhaltigkeit setzt, nicht nur ökologischen Mehrwert schafft, sondern auch das SEO-Potenzial Deiner Projekte hebt. Nachhaltigkeit wird somit als Qualitätsmerkmal und Wettbewerbsvorteil im digitalen Zeitalter positioniert. Zudem liefert das Gespräch praxisnahe Denkanstöße und Umsetzungstipps: Überdenke, auf welche Weise nachhaltige Prozesse in Design, Content-Management und technische Umsetzung integriert werden können. So trägst Du nicht nur zur Schonung der natürlichen Ressourcen bei, sondern verbesserst auch die Sichtbarkeit und Vertrauenswürdigkeit Deiner Webseiten in den Suchmaschinen. Nutze die Ansätze, um eine ganzheitliche Marketingstrategie zu entwickeln, die sowohl ökonomischen als auch ökologischen Erfolg fördert – für Dich, Deine Kunden und eine grünere digitale Zukunft.
Everything you've been told about saving the planet is a lie. The green energy movement isn't just failing—it's actively making environmental destruction worse while enriching the same corporate elites who caused the crisis in the first place. This explosive documentary investigation exposes how the environmental movement has been hijacked by forces that have no intention of saving anything except their own profits. We're talking about a massive deception operation that spans decades, involving fake science, manipulated data, and psychological warfare designed to make you feel good about solutions that are actually accelerating planetary destruction. The solar panels, wind farms, and electric vehicles being pushed as salvation are built using child labor, toxic materials, and manufacturing processes that create more environmental damage than the problems they claim to solve. Our comprehensive investigation reveals how environmental organizations have been co-opted by the same billionaires and corporations that profit from endless consumption, how green energy companies are connected to the most polluting industries on Earth, and how the climate movement has become a cover for the largest wealth transfer in human history. Mystery enthusiasts and truth-seekers know that some movements are controlled opposition—and this documentary proves the green energy scam is the ultimate example. From the rare earth mining operations that destroy entire ecosystems to the massive carbon footprints of renewable energy manufacturing, we expose how the environmental movement has become a tool for social control rather than planetary healing. The same forces pushing green energy are the ones suppressing real solutions, silencing genuine environmental scientists, and profiting from the destruction they claim to oppose. We'll reveal connections between environmental organizations and intelligence agencies, how climate data has been systematically manipulated to support predetermined conclusions, and how the green energy industry has become a front for some of the most environmentally destructive operations in human history. This isn't just about corporate greed—it's about using environmental fear to justify massive social and economic control systems. From biomass burning that destroys forests to lithium mining that poisons water supplies, from solar panel graveyards to wind turbine blade landfills, this documentary exposes how the planet of the humans is being systematically destroyed by the very people claiming to save it. The environmental movement didn't fail—it was designed to fail while enriching its controllers. Stream exclusively on Spreaker for uncensored bonus content about suppressed environmental research, or find us on Amazon Music (ask your Alexa about green energy conspiracies), Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeartRadio, and everywhere truth-seekers get their environmental reality checks. Some movements are designed to fail—this episode tells you why.

The European Commission announced it intends to withdraw the Green Claims Directive, a law proposed to stop companies from falsely marketing themselves or their products as environmentally friendly, unless those claims are backed by solid evidence. This directive had already made it through several rounds of negotiations between the European Parliament and national governments and it was close to being finalised. So, how did we get here and who is pushing the Commission to withdraw it?Join us on our journey through the events that shape the European continent and the European Union.Production: By Europod, in co production with Sphera Network.Follow us on:LinkedInInstagram Hosted on Acast.

We're past the point of simply saying you're committed to sustainability, it's time for tangible and verified action. This is what many are calling for in response to the recent rise in Greenwashing and subsequent erosion of trust from consumers and other stakeholders regarding any green claims. As a result, a number of voluntary disclosure schemes have been created to help benchmark and verify organisation's claims, should they choose to participate. One example being the focus of today's episode: EcoVadis. In this episode Mel Blackmore continues with our voluntary disclosure's series, discussing the ESG rating scheme EcoVadis, what is required to earn a Platinum rating and provides some tips on how to get that Platinum rating. You'll learn · What is EcoVadis? · What are the requirements to achieve a Platinum rating? · Top tips for earning an Platinum rating for EcoVadis · What are the advantages of earning a Platinum rating? · What are the disadvantages of getting involved with EcoVadis? Resources · EcoVadis · Carbonology · Contribute to Mel's carbon verification commitment research by taking her Survey In this episode, we talk about: [02:05] Episode Summary – Mel discusses the voluntary disclosure scheme: EcoVadis, including what's involved with taking part, how to achieve a Platinum rating and the pros and cons of being benchmarked. [03:00] Why is there a need for EcoVadis? An increased number of investors and financial institutions, in addition to clients are demanding more than just financial reports. They want to know what a company's environmental footprint is, and at this point, it's time to move on beyond simply making pledges. This extends to other elements of governance as EcoVadis doubles as a crucial ESG rating scheme. [04:30] What is EcoVadis? EcoVadis is a globally recognised provider of business sustainability ratings. They assess companies' environmental, social, and ethical performance across 21 indicators and four main themes: Environment, Labor & Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement. EcoVadis aims to help organisations manage their supply chain sustainability risks and opportunities. If you're a supplier, you've likely received a request from a customer to complete an EcoVadis assessment. The assessment process involves completing a detailed questionnaire, submitting supporting documentation, and then EcoVadis analysts review your submission and assign a scorecard. This scorecard provides a detailed breakdown of your performance across the four themes and assigns an overall score and a medal status: Bronze, Silver, Gold, or Platinum. It's this medal status that's crucial, especially those coveted Gold and Platinum badges, which signal to your customers that you are a top-tier performer in sustainability. [05:40] We want to hear from you: Mel is currently running some research around CDP and the key drivers behind carbon emission verification, and would appreciate your feedback if you have a few minutes to spare. The results are completely anonymous, and it should only take 5 – 10 minutes. You can take the survey here. Thank you in advance to any contributors! [06:05] What is required to achieve an Platinum Rating? – While EcoVadis assesses across four themes, the 'Environment' theme often carries significant weight, and within that, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions management is paramount for the higher ratings. To earn an EcoVadis Platinum rating, you'll generally need to achieve an overall score between 78-100 out of 100. Key areas that you need to excel in include:- 1) Comprehensive Environmental Management System: This includes policies, actions, and reporting on a wide range of environmental issues. For Platinum, EcoVadis expects to see highly structured and systematic approaches to environmental management. 2) Robust GHG Emissions Management: For this you need to: · Measure your GHG Emissions: Accurately calculate your Scope 1, Scope 2, and significant Scope 3 emissions. EcoVadis places increasing emphasis on Scope 3, as it often represents the largest portion of a company's footprint. · Set Ambitious Targets: Have clear, quantitative targets for GHG emission reduction. Aligning these with a science-based target (SBTi) is highly advantageous and often a de facto requirement for Platinum. · Implement Reduction Initiatives: Demonstrate concrete actions you are taking to reduce emissions, such as investing in renewable energy, improving energy efficiency, optimizing logistics, or engaging your supply chain. 3) Independent Verification of GHG Emissions Data: This is a non-negotiable for Platinum and often for Gold. EcoVadis awards significant points for having your Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions (and increasingly, relevant Scope 3 categories) independently verified by a third-party accredited body. This provides assurance that your reported data is accurate and reliable. As a CDP accredited verification body, we routinely help companies through this process, and it makes a profound difference in their EcoVadis and overall ESG scores. 4) Strong Policies and Actions Across All Themes: While we're focusing on environment, remember Platinum requires excellence across all four EcoVadis themes: · Labor & Human Rights · Ethics · Sustainable Procurement Implementing Standards such as ISO 37001 (Anti-Bribery and Corruption), ISO 27001 (Information Security), ISO 20400 (Sustainable Procurement) can help put some of these in place. 5) Effective Reporting and Transparency: You need to clearly articulate your policies, actions, and performance data within the EcoVadis questionnaire. This includes providing high-quality, relevant supporting documentation. To get the best result, don't just tick boxes; provide evidence! 6) Continuous Improvement: EcoVadis looks for evidence of ongoing improvement. It's not a one-off assessment; it's about demonstrating a commitment to continually raising your standards. [14:20] How to get an EcoVadis Platinum Rating with verified data? – Here's a few tips: · Start Early and Plan Strategically: Don't wait until the last minute. The EcoVadis assessment requires significant time and effort. Plan your data collection, policy development, and verification process well in advance. · Understand the EcoVadis Methodology: Download the EcoVadis methodology and scoring criteria. These double as guidance documents that explain what they're looking for in each section. Tailor your responses and documentation accordingly. · Invest in carbon accounting software: Accurate and consistent data is paramount. Implement systems (whether software or well-organized spreadsheets) to track your energy consumption, waste, water use, and especially your GHG emissions. · Prioritize GHG Emissions Verification: Engage a reputable, accredited third-party verification body (like Carbonology

Send me a messageIn this episode of the Climate Confident podcast, I sit down with Sangeeta Waldron, a communications professional and author of What Will Your Legacy Be?, to explore how our personal choices and narratives shape the climate fight.We cover a lot of ground. Sangeeta shares how her time in the Himalayas revealed the harsh realities of climate change and sparked her lifelong commitment. We also dig into how indigenous knowledge can fill crucial gaps in scientific data, and how personal actions and systemic change go hand in hand.A standout point for me was Sangeeta's insistence that our climate legacy starts much earlier than we think – as soon as we're old enough to make informed decisions. She also challenges us to rethink the role of media in the climate debate, exposing the risks of misinformation and greenwashing.Another highlight? The idea that hope and optimism, not just grief, can drive climate action. I found this especially relevant in a world flooded with doomsday narratives.We wrap up with a powerful reminder: even small daily actions can add up. As Sangeeta puts it, reconnecting with nature - even briefly - is a simple but potent step.Tune in to hear how storytelling, personal responsibility and collective will can move the needle on climate. And let me know your thoughts, are you seeing the same challenges and solutions in your corner of the climate conversation?Connect with Sangeeta on:LinkedInBlueskyInstagramThreadsSupport the showPodcast supportersI'd like to sincerely thank this podcast's amazing supporters: Jerry Sweeney Andreas Werner Stephen Carroll Roger Arnold And remember you too can Support the Podcast - it is really easy and hugely important as it will enable me to continue to create more excellent Climate Confident episodes like this one.ContactIf you have any comments/suggestions or questions for the podcast - get in touch via direct message on Twitter/LinkedIn.

Title: Episode 78: Greenwashing and FSC: Is there a limit to what you can say? Author(s): Worm, Loa Dalgaard Description: Featuring: Trevor Armel, Marketing Director, FSC International and Ana-Maria Băban, Acting Commercial Director, FSC International In this episode of Forest for the Future, we get real about greenwashing—and about how even well-intentioned sustainability claims can fall into murky territory. Loa Worm is joined by Trevor Armel, Marketing Director, FSC International and Ana-Maria Băban, Acting Commercial Director, FSC International, for a candid discussion on what companies can —and can't—say when promoting their work on sustainability in general and on FSC in particural. And then we dive deep into how upcoming EU legislation could shape the rules for everyone. We explore: • What counts as greenwashing vs. honest communication • Why communicating FSC's value can be tricky – even for us • Examples of what companies can and cannot claim publicly about their FSC products • How partnerships with high-impact brands are evaluated • The potential effects of the EU Green Claims Directive and the Empowering Consumers Directive • How FSC is preparing to support certificate holders in navigating this evolving space Whether you're in sustainability, marketing, or certification, this episode provides practical insights on the risks and responsibilities of talking about impact.

Guest: Pamela James, CEO & Founder of Paloma St. JamesIt's no mystery that industrialization has a negative impact on the environment; however, an unexpected contributor is the fashion industry. Recent studies have shown that the production of textiles contributes nearly to 8-10% of global carbon emissions, superseding emissions from the aviation and shipping industries combined. Designer and CEO, Pamela James, joins us today to discuss her take on sustainable fashion and the concept of modularity. We're a society of mass production and overconsumption, but today you'll see that less really is more.

This week, our guest is Dr. Heather Exner-Pirot, a Senior Fellow and Director of Energy, Natural Resources and Environment at the Macdonald-Laurier Institute in Ottawa, a Special Advisor to the Business Council of Canada, and a Research Advisor to the Indigenous Resource Network. Heather has twenty years of experience in Indigenous, Arctic and resource development and governance. She has published on Indigenous economic and resource development, energy security, and politics. Here are some of the questions that Peter and Jackie asked Heather: Does Canada have defense and security issues in the north? Politicians, including our Prime Minister, support Arctic export ports—do you expect to see new export corridors to the north? The Russians ship LNG from the Arctic, so why not Canada? What are your concerns about Prime Minister Mark Carney's climate policy, as outlined in his Liberal leadership and election platforms? What are the issues with Canada's greenwashing rules that were made law about one year ago? How would you recommend Canada move forward with speeding up the development of large projects—should the Impact Assessment Act (Bill C-69) be scrapped or just modified? What are the prospects for deploying small or micro nuclear reactors (SMRs) in the north? What does the future hold for Indigenous equity participation in major projects?
