Episode summary
Big businesses hold the key to promoting action in building a regenerative future. When will we see this action though?
In this episode, Seb Egerton-Read takes us back to COP26 where he was in conversation with two key players in the business world. Our guests are Karrie Denniston, Senior Director of Sustainability at Walmart.org, and Jim Andrew, Chief Sustainability Officer at PepsiCo.
Karrie tells us why she chose to pursue a career with Walmart.org in order to achieve that opportunity for impact. We will also tackle that question you’re probably asking now; how can a company thriving in the linear economylinear economyAn economy in which finite resources are extracted to make products that are used - generally not to their full potential - and then thrown away ('take-make-waste'). possibly become regenerative?
Jim will run us through how PepsiCo is much more than a one-product brand. We’ll also hear about the Pepsi Positive and the NFL Trash Talk campaigns that PepsiCo is working on.
