RimbaWatch on State Elections, Deforestation & Greenwashing

With state elections just around the corner, we catch up with Adam Farhan, the co-founder and director of environmental watchdog RimbaWatch, to suss out how the six states that are heading to the polls have been doing on the environment-front - with a special focus on deforestation - and what voters should consider when choosing their state representatives. Adam also sheds light on a recent report RimbaWatch released that highlighted gaps in PETRONAS's Net Zero Carbon Emissions by 2050 (NZCE 2050) pathway towards achieving net zero future ambitions.
