PLANETA TERRA: Nosso Amado Lar
 
Promovendo escolhas responsáveis para um planeta saudável: Laure Waridel (em Francês)   

HOST: Greetings, dedicated viewers, to this week’s episode of Planet Earth: Our Loving Home featuring Canadian eco-sociologist, author, and fair trade pioneer Laure Waridel, who works to raise awareness about consumer power and how our purchases can affect the food industry, our health and our planet.

She has long been committed to promoting responsible consumption in her home province of Quebec and beyond through public awareness campaigns and has authored or co-written several books on sustainable living including 『The Other Side of the Plate,』 (L’enVers de l’assiette),』 『Buying is Voting,』 and (Acheter, c'est voter)』 『Coffee with Pleasure.』

The HEC Business School, France and La Presse newspaper recognized the excellence of the former two titles with the Business Book Audience Award and the Communication and Society Award.
In honor of her tireless efforts, Maclean’s Magazine, a prominent Canadian current affairs publication, named her one of the 25 Canadian personalities who are changing our world.

In 2005, the Honorable Thomas Mulcair, Quebec's former Minister of Sustainable Development, Environment and Parks, awarded Ms. Waridel the "Circle of the Phoenix" prize, a tribute to the province's most prominent environmentalists.

Past recipients include such outstanding individuals as Hubert Reeves and Frédéric Back. Laure Waridel is currently a professor at McGill University’s Desautels Faculty of Management in Canada and teaches courses on sustainable investments.

She is also a columnist for two magazines: one produced by the University of Sherbrooke, Canada and the other being Reader's Digest.

Laure Waridel emphasizes the importance of making eco-friendly and socially responsible consumer choices to help surmount the many challenges Earth now faces.

Books by Laure Waridel are available at
