Hi Mr. Monbiot, My name is Sofia Pineda Ochoa, I'm a physician in Houston and co-founder of the non-profit "Meat Your Future", which raises awareness about the detrimental impact of our society's use and consumption of animal foods. We are currently producing a sequel to our environmental documentary "Endgame 2050" (I have copied the trailer below). • Trailer: https://youtu.be/_PTtF6btAxU We would like to include an interview with you. We know you've been an outspoken advocate for many years on these issues, and would appreciate being able to speak with you about the environmental challenges the planet is facing. Would you have any availability for a remote Zoom interview over the next month or so? Please let me know, as well as any questions or further information that may be helpful. Thanks so much, Sofia www.MeatYourFuture.com
