Food industry whistleblowers alert investors on climate risks
"A number of structural and cultural issues are preventing the severity of this challenge being fully accepted by industry."
A group of food industry professionals in the UK have written an anonymous memo to alert investors of the commercial risks the sector faces as a result of climate change and urge them to demand greater action from CEOs and boards.
Stating that they work within âsome of the UKâs biggest food producers, manufacturers and retailersâ and acknowledging that the note puts them at âpersonal riskâ, the group warns that the world has reached a moment of threat to food security âlike none other we have seenâ.
