LOS ANGELES, Oct. 15, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Avocado Green Brands, makers of award-winning organic and eco-luxury mattresses and bedding, has a new podcast. The focus? The climate crisis.

"A Little Green" is a new eight-part podcast series produced by the brand known for raising the bar for sustainability.

After all, protecting our planet will take all of us. "A Little Green" asks us to dig in ? together.

"Fighting the climate crisis is at the heart of Avocado's mission. We produced 'A Little Green' to connect with our community on a deeper, actionable way," says Thompson. "After working on this podcast, and speaking with those on the forefront of the climate movement, I've never been more hopeful for our future. We have the tools, and we have the solutions ? and there's so much opportunity out there. Our goal is for people to listen and become invigorated about the role we all play in fighting the climate crisis."

Listeners can tune in wherever they listen to podcasts. The first episode debuts on October 13, and Avocado will release subsequent episodes each Wednesday. Podcast guests include award-winning author and activist Katherine Wilkinson, Jade Begay, the climate justice campaign director for the Indigenous-led NDN Collective, and Raj Aggarwal, co-founder of the B Corp Climate Collective.

Their mattresses are also GREENGUARD Gold certified for low emissions, MADE SAFE® certified, and have achieved STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® for both human and ecological safety.
