What biodiversity do you care about?
from Feed: a food systems podcast · host TABLEdebates.org
Are food systems allies or enemies in the fight to save biodiversity? With our planet facing a biodiversity crisis, the answer depends on who you ask and what forms of life we prioritize. We speak with farmers, biophysical modelers, and biologists to explore whether producing food and conserving biodiversity can be achieved at the same time. We also discuss how our diets impact biodiversity, whether farming without soil can be better for biodiversity at large, and what it would take to effectively "shrink" the food system.For more info, transcript and resources, visit: https://tabledebates.org/podcast/episode71GuestsAnna Lappé, Global Alliance for the Future of FoodEls Hegger, AardighSilvia Quarta, La Junquera FarmBernd Blossey, Assoc Prof at Cornell UniversityAdrian Müller, Research Institute of Organic Agriculture (FiBL) Episode edited by Ylva Carlqvist Warnborg and Matthew Kessler.
