Food for Thought: Rethinking Meat for a Sustainable Future
from Meliora: a podcast from the Sustainability & Resilience Institute · host University of Southampton
In this episode of the Meliora podcast Student Takeover Season we are discussing “Food for Thought: Rethinking Meat for a Sustainable Future”. Globally, we consume around 350 million tons of meat a year. Problems concerned with the future of our planet, the welfare of animals, and our health all come to mind because of this. In 2015, the WHO categorised red meat as carcinogenic to humans (Marinova, 2019) but this is yet to act as the wake-up call it should be to encourage people to rethink their diet.Host: Lily Guest: Kenton
