In this episode Glenn Hurowitz speaks on his pathbreaking work in eliminating both
environmental and social injustices that pervade the world’s biggest, most entrenched agricultural
supply chains. Glenn is the managing director of Climate Advisors where he has taken the international
lead on ending deforestation for commodity agriculture. In the last year, Glenn has played a major role
in getting the world’s biggest agribusinesses, like Cargill, Wilmar International, and Kellogg, to adopt
policies that will eliminate deforestation in their entire global supply chain. We discuss his recent
headlines and success and what this means for forests around the world, and also about issues with the
industry’s use of the word “sustainability,” and how much we can trust their assurances for change.
