Our food system is very big, accounting for about one-third of global carbon emissions, and taking 38% of global land usage. In this session we focus on "the kitchen" - that is, our daily personal food choices and their implication on the above huge footprint (the next session will focus on the systemic aspects).
The presenter is Sally Eales, who has a BA in Human and Environmental Science and an MA in Education and Leadership with certification in Home Economics. After defining a few basic dietary paths and how we are all in different places , she shares, in her easy-going manner, the benefits of leaning into, or adding a little more, plant-based foods. It not only helps our personal health but also the planetary health issues, above. She also touches on personal food waste, etc., and how to reduce such tendencies.
