Mia MacDonald Interviewed by Dr. Hope Ferdowsian

Executive Director Mia MacDonald was recently interviewed by Dr. Hope Ferdowsian about Brighter Green. You can read the piece here. Mia talks about why she decided to start Brighter Green “as someone who cares deeply for nonhuman animals and the environment, I didn’t see a lot of organizations working across these two sets of concerns.” She also talks about how “food and agriculture are still relatively marginal to the climate talks, despite the really strong scientific case for how these issues are crucial to meeting the Paris goals and, within this framework, meat and dairy and animal feed are the real drivers of greenhouse gas production, forest loss, and land-use change that’s also contributing to the climate crisis.”
