About this event

We will explore global banks’ significant funding of the largest meat, dairy, and feed corporations, which is resulting in their outsized climate impacts, and the investment opportunities through blended capital as a pathway toward a more resilient, efficient, diversified, and sustainable global food supply system. We will dive into the startling environmental ramifactions of finacnial flows from the top global and U.S. banks to the largest global meat, dairy, and feed corporations, uncovered by Friends of the Earth U.S.' report, “Bull in the Climate Shop”. The report analyzes the financial flows from the top global and U.S. banks to the largest meat, dairy, and feed corporations and demonstrates how small shifts in finance could have outsized climate impacts. Meanwhile, the World Bank has declared that Food Tech is Climate Tech, and that climate funding should include food systems transformation through innovation and investments in low-emission agriculture, replacements and diversified proteins, and healthy diets. Learn about innovative financing solutions that can help feed the world without harming the planet. From tackling destruction to building resilience to uncovering impact investing strategies, this event will explore key strategies for a more sustainable future.
