Friday, August 2, 2024. Today’s episode is all about climate initiatives. The City of Toronto announced this June the winners of the fourth annual Women4ClimateTO pitch competition. Ten local entrepreneurs pitched their climate-related initiatives to a panel of judges for a chance to claim the first prize of twenty thousand dollars and two secondary prizes of five thousand dollars each. Katherine Festeryga is the winner of this year’s competition, with her project Edie Farming, which will happen right here in Toronto. The Final Word reporter Paula Zeballos spoke to Katherine about her win, Edie Farming and what got her started in climate activism.
