Is COP29 more about greenwashing than groundbreaking climate solutions? Join me, EcoVoice, as we navigate the murky waters of this year's global climate summit held in Azerbaijan. With over 50,000 attendees, one would expect COP29 to set a shining example of sustainable practices. Instead, we're faced with a venue rife with contradictions—carbon-heavy menus dominated by beef, a dearth of affordable plant-based options, and widespread use of single-use plastics. Discover the unsettling realities behind an event that should be leading the charge against climate change but instead raises questions of credibility and accountability.
Exposing the discrepancies between the summit's mission and its execution, this episode uncovers how COP29 might be one of the world’s least sustainable sustainability events. From mislabeled vegetarian dishes to the exorbitant cost of eco-friendly meal options, the summit seems to have veered off course. Through shared stories and social media buzz, attendees express their frustration and disappointment. As we explore these issues, I invite you to reflect on the lessons we must learn to truly push for a greener future—one transparent and meaningful dialogue at a time.

What if traditional business ethics focused solely on shareholder value are insufficient?
Join us for an enlightening conversation with Alison Taylor, clinical professor at NYU Stern School of Business, as we explore the need for businesses to embrace broader ethical frameworks. Alison shares her insights on tackling pressing contemporary issues like climate change, inequality, and human rights, as well as why younger generations are demanding greater corporate accountability.
We discuss the shifting landscape of value creation from tangible assets to increasingly crucial intangibles such as branding, IP, and stakeholder trust. Historical incidents like the Exxon Valdez and BP Deepwater Horizon oil spills serve as case studies highlighting the evolving impact on stock prices and corporate reputation. We also delve into the blurred lines between internal and external corporate culture, emphasizing the importance of transparency in the age of social media, where younger employees are quick to expose unethical practices.
Navigating social and political issues is another significant challenge for today's CEOs. Authenticity over PR-driven efforts is crucial, as is focusing strategically on core issues without overpromising. Alison uses her book "Higher Ground" to provide real-world examples, including Starbucks' sustainability efforts.

Today, we’re discussing a topic close to our hearts and, unfortunately, our oceans - plastic pollution. A recent groundbreaking study titled “On the Vertical Structure of Non-Buoyant Plastics in Turbulent Transport” provides new insights into how rivers, the arteries of our planet, are aiding in this crisis.
Rivers, particularly urban ones, are significant contributors to plastic pollution in our oceans, with around 1000 of them accounting for a staggering 80% of river-borne plastic emissions. These emissions aren’t just floating on the surface; they’re sinking, infiltrating river ecosystems in ways we have yet to understand fully.
