In this programme, ffinlo Costain discusses corporate sustainability and green wash, with Benet Northcote and Ed Gillespie. Is it possible for large companies to become genuinely sustainable - or will greed always triumph over green?

Benet is a senior adviser at Seahorse Environmental and the deputy chair of the UK's Conservative Environment Network. Prior to that he was the director of corporate responsibility for the John Lewis Partnership, and worked as deputy private secretary to The Prince of Wales.

Ed Gillespie is a facilitator for the Forward Institute and co-founder of the sustainability agency, Futerra.  He is also a co-presenter of Jon Richardson and the Futurenauts and a director of Greenpeace UK.
Produced by Farmwel and the Food, Farming & Countryside Commission.
