The planet is in peril, and it’s clear that we cannot restore it without transforming our food system. We can all make changes to our diet to help us eat healthily and sustainably, in a way which is good both for us and for the environment. Many experts agree that it is essential that we change our eating habits to ensure we protect our planet while feeding the growing global population. In this episode we’re joined by two pioneers in the world of food sustainability: Grace Douglas, Ph.D., lead scientist of advanced food technology at NASA, and John Halsey, founder and president of the Peconic Land Trust. Also, George and Alex discuss one of the most universal foods cultivated since 2,000 BC.
