When the AIDs epidemic began tearing its way through gay communities throughout the world, there was almost no effort made by governments to address the escalating health crisis whatsoever.  Even when heat-treated blood became available, pharmaceutical companies were strangely reluctant to offer these newer, safer products, particularly in South America and Asia, but no country was quite as ruthlessly self-defeating than in Japan, which created an extraordinary conspiracy to put corporate profits above the lives of their citizens Today's guest is Hannah Lane!

When Walmart launched their Project Gigaton program in 2017, the idea that the retailer could get their suppliers to cumulatively reduce 1 BILLION tons for carbon emissions by 2030 was hailed as incredibly ambitious.Last week, the company reported in their fourth quarter earnings call that they had not only surpassed that billion ton goal, but had done so 6 full years earlier than their target. In today's episode, Paul discusses how Walmart got here, what other companies can learn from Walmart's leadership, and what may be next in addressing supply chain (or Scope 3) emissions.For further reference:"Why Walmart's Project Gigaton is Corporate America's Moonshot" - Greenbiz (2017)"Walmart Hits Supplier Emissions Goal 6 Years Early" - Retail Dive"Walmart Suppliers Lead the Charge, Help Deliver Project Gigaton Goal More Than Six Years Early" - Kathleen McLaughlin, CSO Walmart, Blog Report 2/21/2024Follow Paul on LinkedIn.

Aux États-Unis, ce sont plusieurs millions de personnes qui vendent chaque année leur plasma. Un composant recherché car il sert à la fabrication de médicaments. Mais pour les Américains les plus pauvres, vendre son plasma c'est surtout un moyen de gagner un peu d'argent. Le pays est l'un des rares au monde à autoriser les prélèvements rémunérés de ce composant de notre sang. Et aux États-Unis, la vente de plasma permet à des millions d'Américains, parmi les plus démunis, de gagner un peu d'argent. Selon la journaliste Kathleen McLaughlin, qui a publié un livre-enquête consacré à ce phénomène, Blood Money (L'argent du Sang, éditions Atria/One Signal Publishers), ce sont trois catégories de personnes qui sont concernées : les étudiants, dans un pays où les études coûtent très cher, les travailleurs dont les revenus ne couvrent pas le coût de la vie, et des citoyens mexicains qui viennent aux États-Unis pour vendre leur plasma et gagner de l'argent. « Les tarifs sont fixés de manière très peu transparente, explique la journaliste : certains donneurs gagnent environ 400 dollars par mois en y allant deux fois par semaine. Mais les donneurs ne savent pas toujours exactement combien ils peuvent gagner par mois, le système est donc conçu pour que les gens reviennent le plus souvent possible. » Ceux qui tirent les plus gros profits de ce secteur sont les industries pharmaceutiques. « Elles ont entre leurs mains le plasma du début à la fin. Je veux dire par là qu'elles possèdent les centres de collecte et de traitement du plasma et qu'elles peuvent ensuite commercialiser les médicaments. La dernière estimation sur le poids économique du secteur s'élève à environ 20 milliards de dollars par an. On devrait dépasser les 50 milliards de dollars d'ici quelques années. Il s'agit donc là d'une industrie massive. » Mexique : l'armée incriminée dans l'affaire des « disparus d'Ayotzinapa » C'est un rapport accablant pour les autorités mexicaines, qui est rendu dans l'affaire des 43 étudiants d'Ayotzinapa. Rendu par les experts internationaux mandatés par la Commission interaméricaine des droits de l'homme, le rapport incrimine la police mais aussi l'armée mexicaine, dans l'enlèvement et la disparition des étudiants, en septembre 2014. Les rapporteurs accusent l'État mexicain de dissimuler des informations et se disent dans l'impossibilité de poursuivre leur enquête, comme l'explique la correspondante de RFI à Mexico, Gwendolina Duval.   Aux États-Unis, l'hommage à Emmett Till C'est un lynchage atroce dont a été victime un adolescent noir de 14 ans... les faits remontent à l'année 1955, dans le Mississippi, et la mise à mort d'Emmett Till avait contribué à relancer le mouvement des droits civiques aux États-Unis.

Welcome to Grit Nation. I'm Joe Cadwell the writer, producer, and host of the show and on today's episode I have the pleasure of speaking with author Kathleen McLaughlin, about her new book titled; Blood Money – The Story of Life, Death and Profit Inside America's Blood Industry.In her book Kathleen turns the lights on a healthcare crisis hidden in plain sight and reveals a stunning example of economic inequality in action. Intertwined with her own story as a working-class American managing a chronic illness, she finds an industry that targets and exploits America's most marginalized communities to feed the hunger for human blood plasma.Over 20 million pay-for-extractions occur each year of American blood, which is then processed, and packaged for sale as part of a $30 billion-dollar global industry.Blood Money reveals the controversial and unbalanced power structures behind the blood industry. From China's blood black market to Silicon Valley tech startups, this electrifying expose demonstrates the shadowy overlap between big medicine and big business while painting a searing portrait of the extent to which American industry is eager to feed on the country's most vulnerable.The Show NotesKathleen McLaughlinhttps://www.simonandschuster.com/authors/Kathleen-McLaughlin/179283499Blood Moneyhttps://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Blood-Money/Kathleen-McLaughlin/9781982171964NW Carpenters Union United Brotherhood of Carpenters, Regional Council in the Pacific NorthwestUnion Home Plus Union Home Plus helps union members save money when they buy, sell, or finance their home.

Kathleen McLaughlin has a rare chronic illness and needs regular treatments using people's blood plasma. She started researching the US blood plasma industry a decade ago and has written a book, Blood Money, about what it says about class, race and inequality. This week, she speaks to Joan E Greve about what she's learned about the for-profit blood plasma industry • How to listen to podcasts: everything you need to know

Journalist Kathleen McLaughlin knew she'd found a treatment that worked on her rare autoimmune disorder. She had no idea it had been drawn from the veins of America's most vulnerable.  Blood Money shares McLaughlin's decade-long mission to learn the full story of where her medicine comes from. She travels the United States in search of the truth about human blood plasma and learns that twenty million Americans each year sell their plasma for profit — a human-derived commodity extracted inside our borders to be processed and packaged for retail across the globe. McLaughlin investigates the thin evidence that pharmaceutical companies have used to push plasma as a wonder drug for everything from COVID-19 to wrinkled skin. In the process, she unearths an American economic crisis hidden in plain sight: single mothers, college students, laid-off Rust Belt auto workers, and a booming blood market at America's southern border, where collection agencies target Mexican citizens willing to cross over and sell their plasma for substandard pay. McLaughlin's findings push her to ask difficult questions about her own complicity in this wheel of exploitation, as both a patient in need and a customer who stands to benefit from the suffering of others. Blood Money weaves together McLaughlin's personal battle to overcome illness as a working American, with revealing portrait of what happens when big business is allowed to feed, unchecked, on those least empowered to fight back.

Kathleen McLaughlin and Paul Krauss MA LPC discuss the physical, psychological, and economic costs of selling one's plasma in the USA, as well as how the blood industry's current business model impacts the greater health of our society. Kathleen shares the knowledge she has gained through her own personal experience as a recipient of plasma-based medications, and as a journalist who has interviewed people who supplement their income by selling their plasma, and investigated the business model both locally and internationally. While one may initially believe this topic to be unrelated to psychology and philosophy, this podcast discusses the intersections between the the health impacts, the psychological outcomes, and the entire notion of what type of country/world we want to live in--and how all of this can be shaped by Blood Money.

Millions of people across the world rely on life-saving medications made from blood plasma. And the U.S. is the leading exporter of that plasma. Here in the U.S. donating plasma is a legal and regulated process. It is also a paid exchange. Although you can't sell a kidney or even your blood, there are parts of you that you can sell to earn money. For example, donating eggs for assisted reproductive technology is legal and paid.  And the United States is one of only a few countries in the world that allows people to sell their blood plasma. And millions do so every year, as we learned from some of our listeners who called in. But the multi-billion dollar for-profit blood plasma industry, also relies on middle- and low-income donors.  We talk with Kathleen McLaughlin, a journalist and author of the new book, “BLOOD MONEY: The Story of Life, Death, and Profit Inside America's Blood Industry.” In the book, Kathleen explores the U.S. Blood Plasma market in this new book, but she begins her story in China and her own personal connection to the blood plasma industry.

Forget adrenochrome. There's a very real network of private companies extracting blood plasma from financially precarious Americans and selling it (and its derivatives) for piles of money on the global market. They target parts of the country in economic decline and incentivize plasma sellers to become repeat visitors to their centers, despite the physical downsides of the process.

Blood Money: The Story of Life, Death, and Profit Inside America's Blood Industry by Kathleen McLaughlin A “haunting” (Anne Helen Petersen, author of Can't Even) and deeply personal investigation of an underground for-profit medical industry and the American underclass it drains for blood and profit. Journalist Kathleen McLaughlin knew she'd found a treatment that worked on her rare autoimmune disorder. She had no idea it had been drawn from the veins of America's most vulnerable. So begins McLaughlin's ten-year investigation researching and reporting on the $20-billion-a year business she found at the other end of her medication, revealing an industry that targets America's most economically vulnerable for immense profit. Assigned to work in China, McLaughlin hesitated to utilize that country's scandal-plagued plasma supply—outbreaks throughout the 1990s and early 2000s struck thousands with blood-borne diseases as impoverished areas of the country were milked for blood with reckless abandon. Instead, McLaughlin becomes her own runner, hiding American plasma in her luggage during trips from the United States to China. She finishes the job, but never could get the plasma story out of her head. Suspicions become certainties when a source from the past, a visiting Chinese researcher, warns McLaughlin of troubling echoes between America's domestic plasma supply chain and the one she'd seen spin out into chaos in China. Blood Money shares McLaughlin's decade-long mission to learn the full story of where her medicine comes from. She travels the United States in search of the truth about human blood plasma and learns that twenty million Americans each year sell their plasma for profit—a human-derived commodity extracted inside our borders to be processed and packaged for retail across the globe. She investigates the thin evidence pharmaceutical companies have used to push plasma as a wonder drug for everything from COVID-19 to wrinkled skin.

Montana has long held a distinctive place within the mythos of America. Today, it's becoming an ever-more attractive destination for those in search of a stronger sense of community, or an escape, in response to a dizzying and hyper-digital world. In this honest conversation with award-winning, Butte-based journalist, Kathleen McLaughlin, Reframing Rural explores what an influx of wealthy newcomers means for housing access and affordability, open spaces and community cohesion, and how new and established residents of all class backgrounds can work together to create a place where all Montanans can thrive.

What do Walmart, one of the world's largest retailers, and big multinational power company Ørsted have in common? They're both taking steps to decarbonize their supply chains that could ultimately result in wide-ranging changes across sectors.  In this episode of the ESG Insider podcast, we're continuing with the theme we covered last week of decarbonizing supply chains. We speak with Walmart's Executive Vice President and Chief Sustainability Officer, Kathleen McLaughlin. She tells us that the company is engaging across all its supply chains to create systemic changes to production and consumption.   "Our ultimate goal is to make the everyday product that anybody might buy the sustainable choice. We're trying to make sustainability mainstream," Kathleen says.   We also speak to Virginia Dundas, Head of Strategic Environment Programmes at Ørsted. She explains how Denmark's largest energy company is teaming up with buyers in other sectors to drive supply chain decarbonization. She says collaboration is a key pillar of the company's net zero plan.   "It's not one company's problem," Virginia says. "Everyone has to chip in and play their part."   Listen to last week's episode on decarbonizing supply chains here: https://www.spglobal.com/esg/podcasts/why-collaboration-is-critical-to-cutting-supply-chain-emissions  We'd love to hear from you.

Americans take a free press for granted, but what's it like in countries where the news is government-controlled? Butte-based journalist and former foreign correspondent Kathleen McLaughlin joins Sally and Gwen to discuss this and what "news silos" in the U.S. may have in common with the press in totalitarian countries. Listen now on Parsing the Press.

Sustainability and climate are front and center among many corporations and U.S. manufacturers as they step up and adopt more sustainable practices around their supply chains across industries. Some are just getting started, hiring sustainability officers, switching to renewable energy, and taking other initial steps. Today, however, "do less harm," is not enough—companies need to operate as regenerative businesses that give back. Walmart, an early mover in this field, is moving into the sustainable and regenerative future. In this episode of SOCAP Leadership, SOCAP Global President Kate Bryne has a conversation with Walmart's Executive Vice President and Chief Sustainability Officer Kathleen McLaughlin.

The coronavirus has slammed the retail sector and caused many companies to go out of business. But the pandemic has been a catalyst for growth at Walmart Inc., one of the world's largest retailers. The company's e-commerce sales jumped 97% in the second quarter as consumers hibernated at home and relied increasingly on online shopping. That growth also means an expanding carbon footprint. In this special Climate Week episode of ESG Insider, an S&P Global podcast, we talk to Walmart’s chief sustainability officer, Kathleen McLaughlin. She says the company is making significant strides toward the goals of Project Gigaton, its initiative to eliminate 1 billion metric tons of greenhouse gases by 2030. Walmart has enlisted more than 2,300 of its suppliers, including Unilever, Johnson & Johnson and Fruit of the Loom, to cut greenhouse gas emissions. "Our goal is to rewire the way that supply chains function so that the production of the products that all of use every day is actually sustainable," McLaughlin tells ESG Insider.

This week, freelance journalist Kathleen McLaughlin published a story in the Washington Post detailing Butte, Montana’s collective anxiety about a long-awaited and finally forthcoming consent decree that will lay out the final phase of cleanup of Butte’s expansive Superfund site. Publication of the legally binding document has been repeatedly delayed with little explanation, but is currently set for Thursday, Feb. 13, pending final review by the U.S. Department of Justice. As McLaughlin tells Montana Free Press editor-in-chief John S. Adams, “I think the EPA and the city are going to have … a big job ahead of them selling [the consent decree] to the community when the community wasn’t publicly involved in the discussions.” For more than 20 years, Montana native McLaughlin has reported on inequality and marginalized communities in the American West and Asia. After more than a decade in China, McLaughlin recently moved back to her hometown of Butte, where the environmental consequences of decades of copper mining remain an ongoing issue. McLaughlin also talks about her career arc as a journalist, and the uncomfortable parallels between the Chinese government’s treatment of journalists and the way some American politicians undermine the free press for political purposes.  “Political leaders who jump on this bandwagon of yelling about ‘fake news’ are giving away one of the pillars of our [democratic] system,” McLaughin says.  She also talks about how her experience in China during the 2003 SARS epidemic informs her understanding of the Chinese government’s current reporting on the coronavirus. McLaughlin’s’ interview with Adams is featured on the latest installment of the Montana Lowdown podcast, a weekly publication of Montana Free Press.

Kathleen McLaughlin is Chief Sustainability Officer for Walmart Inc., and President of the Walmart Foundation. In this conversation, she talks about her upbringing and career path (0:45), Walmart's "Project Gigaton" initiative (8:37), efforts to prevent deforestation (16:22), and more. Plus: WWF's Kerry Cesareo breaks down a new approach to saving forests in Malaysia (20:03).

Today’s episode is a lovely chat with our very interesting and talented friends Erin Kidd, Assistant Professor of Theology and Religious Studies at St. John’s University (Queens, NY), and Jakob Karl Rinderknecht, Assistant Professor of Religious Studies and Director of the Pastoral Institute at University of the Incarnate Word (San Antonio, TX). After a lively discussion of Erin’s most recent culinary catastrophes and the wild/wonderful Riverwest neighborhood of Milwaukee, we learn about Erin and Jakob’s new edited volume: Putting God on the Map: Theology and Conceptual Mapping (Fortress Press, 2018). The volume is an interdisciplinary work in theology and cognitive science, and our conversation covers the basics of cognitive linguistics and conceptual mapping. We also introduce the wide-ranging implications of their intersections and applications in theological discourse. Jon shares his Treasures Old & New, and then we say goodbye.

Journalist Kathleen McLaughlin reports on fake drugs in Africa, focusing on malaria pills. Traveling through Tanzania and Uganda, McLaughlin reports on how the fake drugs are almost impossible to tell apart from the actual drugs — both the packaging and the ingredients are almost identical. Up to one third of the malaria pills are fake, leaving people in dangerous situations. Furthermore, the parasite continues to spread and since the fake drugs contain half-strength of partial active ingredients, the parasite could potentially become resistant to the current medication. This report is part of the Pulitzer Center sponsored project: "China's Angry Reaction Hides Some Real Concern Over Fakes"

On April 25th, 2013, for World Malaria Day, the Pulitzer Center hosted a Google Hangout on fake drugs around the world. Pulitzer Center grantee Kathleen McLaughlin spoke about her reporting project on fake drugs in east Africa, and her work tracking the origins of the drugs back to China and India. Cobus Van Staden of The China in Africa Podcast and Dr. Patrick Lukulay, program director for the Promoting the Quality of Medicines initiative at the US Pharmacopeial Convention, also spoke about their experiences.

China makes an about-face on Libya, we discuss a recent controversy in Beijing's arts community over independent filmmaker Zhao Liang. We also get an on-the-ground update on the state of China's South-North Water Diversion Project: a little-publicized infrastructure effort that already dwarfs the Three Gorges Dam in both its human and environmental impact. We're lucky to have an incredible lineup of guests. Joining Kaiser Kuo in our studio this week is Edward Wong from The New York Times, whose recent profile of independent filmmaker Zhao Liang sets the stage for our discussion today. Kathleen McLaughlin from the GlobalPost is also here, fresh back in Beijing from a trip to Shaanxi to investigate the state of China's plans to redirect southern water to the country's parched north. We are also lucky to be joined by Sinica-stalwart Will Moss of Imagethief fame.

A spate of suicides leaves ten dead at the Shenzhen campus of Foxconn, the giant electronics manufacturer that makes many of the world's most popular consumer electronics. A rare strike paralyzes production at Honda Motors, shutting down all of the company's manufacturing lines in the country. In response, both companies offer substantial concessions to workers, causing many to ask if this marks the end of China's reign as the low-cost "workshop to the world"? This week on Sinica, host Kaiser Kuo welcomes Kathleen McLaughlin, a prolific reporter for the Bureau of National Affairs and Global Post who has written extensively on electronics manufacturing trends in China. We're also joined by Jonathan Watts, Beijing-based correspondent for The Guardian, who is just back from a visit to the massive Foxconn facility in Shenzhen. Also with us is Danwei founder Jeremy Goldkorn. We look at the problems afflicting labor in China: are these simply the result of poor working conditions, or is there more at work here?
