Recently, we reported on De Beers and the poisoning of North Canadian soil by this iconic and legendary company who failed to report their toxic mercury levels and was eventually sentenced in territorial court to charges under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act.
We feel strongly that, as people make choices about theownership of their diamonds, they need to know the truth about what's going on.
We are deeply disappointed in De Beers for this action andbelieve they do much more good in the world than bad but this is Northern Canada; some of the most pristine wilderness in theworld and if De Beers is going to profit from being there we need to know they're going to protect it as well.
As we evolve and grow globally, we feel it's important to make changes to the benefit of our clients and viewers so starting next week, the podcast will be renamed "The Hard Truth Diamond Podcast" where Colin and GIA Judy become more and more audacious and provocative, taking listeners truly backstage into the diamond world and giving you the hard truth!
Gratefully,
The Global Diamond Broker Team
