Description

Today we have an important conversation on how to save the planet through battling deforestation and unsustainable businesses who are putting profit over preservation. Glenn Hurowitz is the CEO of Mighty Earth, and has led environmental campaigns around the world for many years. He is a globally recognised leader on forests, agriculture, and climate change, and running strategic campaigns. Glenn has also worked extensively in politics. He is the author of the critically-acclaimed book Fear and Courage in the Democratic Party, and his writing has appeared in The New York Times, The Atlantic, The Nation, Politico, The American Prospect. He’s appeared on many national media outlets, including CNN, MSNBC, FOX, CBS, and NPR. He is a graduate of the Green Corps fellowship and Yale University, and also holds posts as Managing Director at Waxman Strategies and a Senior Fellow at the Center for International Policy so needless to say we are thrilled to have him on today. 
Cora and Glenn discuss his battles against deforestation, why eating less meat is one of the best things we can all do to prevent climate catastrophe and biodiversity loss on a grand scale, as well as how any of us can campaign against big business even in our own small ways. Glenn's dedication and knowledge is incredible to hear, so we are thrilled to bring you this conversation today!
