63: Lab Grown Diamonds Are A Girl’s Best Friend | MiaDonna + The Greener Diamond Foundation

The diamond industry is dirty, corrupt, and arguably super outdated. Diamonds are simply compressed carbon – and technology has caught up with nature to alleviate some of the adverse effects of mining. Today, we are sitting down with Anna-Mieke Anderson of MiaDonna & Co. and The Greener Diamond Foundation. We’re discussing how the technology of growing diamonds in a lab facility has actually surpassed the quality of stones we can find in nature, and how historically oppressed communities can be revitalized through sustainable investments.
