What’s for Dinner? Reconnecting Our Food with Our Climate
October 24 at 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
Our food systems have become increasingly fragile in the face of climate change, ongoing conflicts and the long-tail of the COVID-19 pandemic. More frequent—and more intense—extreme events challenge food production, storage and transportation. At the same time, how we grow, process, package and transport our food often harms the environment, further accelerating climate change and biodiversity loss. Fixing this requires bridging the gap between food policies and climate policies.
Speaker: Dr. Jessica Fanzo, Director of the Food For Humanity Initiative, Columbia University Climate School. The talk will be presented via Zoom.
