Who knew climate conferences had corporate sponsors? 183,295 people, that&#8217;s who, for they have signed a petition telling the UN suits to ditch the sponsor of this year&#8217;s jamboree in Egypt which is&#8230; Coca-Cola.
That&#8217;s Coca &#8220;oh hi! we&#8217;re the biggest plastic polluter in the world!&#8221; Cola. Producers of 200,000 plastic bottles EVERY MINUTE coca-cola. Corporate lobbyists supreme, Coca-Cola. Everyone&#8217;s favourite pilferer of scarce fresh water supplies and flogger of brown sugary fizz, Coca-Cola. 
WHAT. THE. ACTUAL.
We speak to Georgia Elliott-Smith, legal activist and originator of said petition, to find out what on earth is going on, and discover the astonishing extent to which climate conferences &#8211; meetings we naively assumed (SILLY US!) were about halting the destruction life on earth &#8211; are massive trade shows for polluters.
