She soon realized that the fight for environmental protection was not just about protecting the planet, but also about fighting against the corporate greed that was driving the destruction of the environment.

In 1997, Horn co-founded the Center for Food Safety, a non-profit organization dedicated to protecting human health and the environment from the harmful effects of industrial agriculture.
