This week: Niamh McCarthy, director for climate-related risk at Climate Advisers, talks with Ian Welsh about the launch of a new report from the Orbitas initiative on the Brazilian cattle sector and the impact of climate transition. They discuss the sector’s risks and opportunities amid climate transitions, and the impacts of the incoming regulatory change.
And, Ian talks with Amanda Archila, executive director at Fairtrade America, and Anna Mann, assistant director of responsible business at the Fairtrade Foundation, about pricing pressures in food value chains. In particular, they discuss how to ensure that they don't always impact growers unfairly.
Plus: the European Court of Human Rights calls out the Swiss government for insufficient action on climate change; lack of government support and insufficient funding hinders SME companies to take climate action; and, UK retailer Waitrose partners with Tony's Chocolonely Open Chain initiative for responsibly sourced cocoa, in the news digest.
Host: Ian Welsh
