In recent years, the personal care industry has struggled with balancing the need for natural ingredients with the danger of potentially destroying priceless natural resources. HBA and Lipo Chemicals, Inc. have invited Dr Birute Mary Galdikas, world-renowned protégé of the anthropologist Dr Louis Leakey, to discuss the sourcing of green resources in the industry today and the importance of protecting their renewability without damaging the environment.
Dr Galdikas will discuss the dangers of a non-sustainable approach, drawing on her work among the orangutans of Borneo in the forests where palm oil is found, in an inspiring call to action to the personal care industry to heighten awareness and strengthen the industry's resolve to solve the problems of sustainability and renewable resources.
