Committing to Conservation
Setup
Environmental stewardship has become as much a watchword in the business sector as it has among activists and advocates. When corporate executives start talking about the importance of ecosystems, regenerative agriculture, and responsible product sourcing, and NGOs promote innovative financing mechanisms that forgive national debt in exchange for funding conservation activities, a shared sense of urgency has clearly taken hold. The CEO of Whole Foods, the board chair of the Nature Conservancy, and the Michelin-starred chef of Blue Hill share the stage to talk about sustainability, biodiversity, and the payoff from measures to protect the health of the planet and its people.
