Podcasts about feed the world

On July 13, 1985 the world experienced a television super concert that has never been replicated. Live Aid was a famine relief effort for Africa, which began with a Bob Geldof song and a "Feed The World" mantra that returns every Christmas. On the 40th Anniversary of a day made famous by so many bands and artists over the years, Nestor gathered his two brotherly pals, Richard and David Abrahams, who traveled to London to see the show at Wembley Stadium while he was in Philadelphia at JFK Stadium, writing a long-forgotten review of the concert that was unearthed. Let them share memories and show and tell pictures and mementos of their experiences four decades later... The post On the 40th Anniversary of Live Aid, lifer Nestor pals David and Richard Abrahams compare Wembley and JFK Philly notes and memories first appeared on Baltimore Positive WNST.

Brazil's Zebu cattle, or “supercows” are bred for size, strength, and meat quality. Every year the animals are showcased at ExpoZebu, Brazil's premier cattle fair. These animals are preened, pampered, and prized, before being sold for millions for their genetic material. Zebu cattle were not always part of Brazil's landscape. After being imported from India in the late 19th century, farmers found their resilience to heat, pests, and poor pasture made them ideal for Brazil's expanding cattle frontier. Thanks to decades of selective breeding and low-cost pasture-based farming, Brazil is now the world's largest beef exporter, and demand is only rising. Despite its economic success and domestic popularity, Brazil's beef has a significant environmental cost due to its emissions and links to deforestation. However, their genetic material has the potential to be used around the world to make cattle more resilient to climate change.

Bailey Van Tassel interviews Steven Hoffen, a high-schooler who started a hydroponics non-profit that feeds over 33,000 people yearly in underserved populations. Steven went to Isreal in seventh grade and was inspired to make a film about women coming together to grow their own food with hydroponics. That quickly turned into his pursuit of using hydroponic systems to help people who are incarcerated, the elderly, and asylum seekers. Steven was named a CNN Hero and is on his way to creating something immensely dynamic, all with the power of food. He shares about what his towers do, how they work, and what his mission is.

Since 2020, over 120 million tonnes of nitrogen fertilizer have been produced annually—a number set to rise by 50% by 2050. It's easy to assume this is non-negotiable, that without it, we'd face a food crisis. But do we really need all this fossil-based input? As it turns out, there are many ways we can reverse this trend - from curbing overuse and adopting alternative technologies to rethinking our diets and transforming farming practices. We explore a range of options to ease our dependency on fossil fueled agrochemicals.

This week Nicola and Di chat with the genuine and inspiring Ronni Kahn AO. Ronni is a social entrepreneur who founded the food rescue charity, OzHarvest. She is a passionate advocate and activist and her mission to fight food waste and feed hungry people is supported by some of the world's finest chefs. Ronni is an Officer of the Order of Australia (AO) and was named Australian Local Hero of the Year in 2010. Her journey is the subject of a feature film,  Food Fighter and her memoir, A Repurposed Life, has recently been published. In this conversation, Ronni tells us the remarkable story of a trip back to South Africa to visit an old friend that uncovered Ronni's purpose and changed the course of her life forever. She shares how it all began with OzHarvest, and how her passion is fuelled by purpose and Ronni considers it a privilege to be able to do the work she does in the world and make an incredible impact.  As well as Ronni's passion to feed the hungry, we also talk about her activism around food waste and the little-known fact that food waste is the second biggest contributor to global warming, and costs the Australian economy $36.6 billion dollars a year. Ronni shares with us some simple ways that we can all reduce our food waste and help her achieve her mission for Australia to halve their food waste by 2030.  Ronni is a great storyteller and we hear all about some of the incredible people she's collaborated with - from top international chefs to the patron of UK Harvest, none other than Queen Camilla herself.  To celebrate the 20 year anniversary of OzHarvest and bring awareness to the fact that 10 million Australians on any given day are in need of food, Ronni and her team are holding a Unite To Feed Australia concert on the 7th of November in Sydney, and she'd love for you all to be thaere! You can buy your tickets here.  We absolutely loved chatting to Ronni in the studio and hearing her uplifting message about the power each and every one of us has to make a difference in the world, no matter how big or small. We hope you love it too and that we can sing along with you Back Fencers at the concert in November.  Follow Ronni on IG here  Follow OzHarvest on IG here Buy Tickets to the OzHarvest - Unite To Feed Australia Concert here Buy Ronni's Memoir - A Repurposed Life here  Find Out More about OzHarvest here Follow Nicola and Di on IG hereSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Pastor Rob shares our heart for One Day To Feed The World. When we give our one day's wage, we are helping bring smiles to people all over the world. Through our generosity, lives are changed!

Policy Dialogue/Series/Special Event Against the grain: Could farmers feed the world and heal the planet? Co-organized by IFPRI and The CGIAR Initiative on Nature-Positive Solutions Virtual Event August 27, 2024 Humanity relies on agriculture to provide nourishment, yet there is an urgent need to reduce the agricultural sector's environmental footprint. Meeting these two goals is crucial for both people and the planet to thrive. Please join us for a conversation featuring Roger Thurow, award-winning author and journalist, whose recently released book argues it is possible for farmers to meet these two critical objectives. This seminar will discuss the importance of heeding the wisdom and experiences of the world's smallholder, Indigenous, and family farmers, who are facing the effects of climate change and environmental degradation firsthand as they endeavor to earn a living and feed their families and communities. Perspectives from farmers will highlight how the practices of agroforestry, agroecology, and regenerative agriculture can provide food to nourish humanity while also protecting the environment. The seminar will also discuss how science and research, including the work of CGIAR, and investment and financing has contributed to enhancing the work of these farmers and transforming food systems for people and the planet. Welcome Remarks Charlotte Hebebrand, Director of Communications and Public Affairs, IFPRI Speakers Roger Thurow, Award-winning author and journalist; Former Senior Fellow, The Chicago Council on Global Affairs Jackson Kinyanjui Koimbori, Senior Circular Economy and Climate Change Coordinator, Kenya Private Sector Alliance (KEPSA) Wei Zhang, Senior Research Fellow, Natural Resources and Resilience Unit, IFPRI; Co-lead of the CGIAR Research Initiative on Low-Emission Food Systems (Mitigate+) Evalyne Okoth, Farmer, The CGIAR Initiative on Nature-Positive Solutions, Nyando, Kenya Jonathan Mockshell, Senior Agricultural Economist, Alliance of Bioversity and CIAT Closing Remarks Carlo Fadda, Director, Agrobiodiversity, Biodiversity for Food and Agriculture, Alliance of Bioversity & CIAT; Lead, Nature-Positive Solutions Research Initiative Moderator Charlotte Hebebrand, Director of Communications and Public Affairs, IFPRI Links: Purchase the book:https://www.amazon.com/Against-Grain-Farmers-Transforming-Agriculture/dp/1572843403 More about this Event: https://www.ifpri.org/event/against-the-grain-could-farmers-feed-the-world-and-heal-the-planet/ Subscribe IFPRI Insights newsletter and event announcements at www.ifpri.org/content/newsletter-subscription

In this episode, Pastor Maritza and Pastor Scott join Andrew to discuss the significance of the "One Day to Feed the World" initiative, emphasizing the Christian duty to feed, love, and change the world through both compassionate action and sharing the gospel. They also highlight the responsibility of every believer to actively participate in the mission of God and not be passive spectators, drawing from scriptures such as Matthew 9 and the Great Commission in Matthew 28.

In this powerful message, Pastor Maritza reminds us of our calling to be world-changers through Christ. We're challenged to feed the world, love the world, and change the world as we clothe ourselves with compassion and act as the hands and feet of Jesus. The message reminds us that true life is found in obeying God's word and living for His kingdom, not in worldly possessions or comfort.

Welcome to State of Seed, a four-part series about how seeds feed and sustain the planet in surprising and complicated ways. On this first episode, host Laura Rosbrow-Telem visits a Rijk Zwaan lettuce plant breeding facility in the Netherlands, watching seeds pollinate in real-time. She then goes to Rotterdam to attend the centennial World Seed Congress, an annual gathering of seed leaders. Here, she interviews Beth Bechdol, Deputy Director-General of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. Bechdol comes from a grain farming family, going back seven generations. She reflects on what the policy world misunderstands about agriculture and the key barriers farmers face in accessing quality seed.  State of Seed is a show from the International Seed Federation, with production services by FP Studios.

Transforming the global food system is vital in the fight against climate change. Currently, food production accounts for a third of all greenhouse gas emissions. At the same time, the food system also fails to properly nourish billions of people worldwide.In this edition of People Fixing The World we're looking at high and low tech solutions to transform the ways we produce and consume food to make it greener and more equitable.In London, we visit a startup company making cheese from genetically modified microbes rather than cattle, in a bid to make dairy production better for the planet.And in Philadelphia we look at how planting fruit and nut trees in ‘food forests' is tackling hunger by providing access to healthy, nutritious food for low-income communities across the city.Presenter: Myra Anubi Reporter/producer: Zoe Gelber Series producer: Jon Bithrey Editor: Tom Bigwood Sound mix: Frank McWeeny

The Field Notes podcast series from Koch Agronomic Services (KAS) breaks down the science and technology behind agronomy to help growers do more with less. In this episode, we'll discuss the importance of research in agronomic inputs. Two scientists with KAS, Stacey Wertz and Harjot Dhaliwal will talk about the challenges and rewards of working behind the scenes to maximize yields. They'll tell us what grower feedback has meant to two products, CENTURO and PROTIVATE, as they are out in the fields actively helping growers feed the world.

Bob Riley, known to many as Doc Fat, has been innovating in Central Iowa since 1986 when the founders of Feed Energy passed suddenly and he purchased the company.  Bob stepped in and began his journey with Feed Energy - providing safe, energy-based nutrition solutions for the poultry, cattle and pork industries.  Growing the company from 11 to 124 in the last 37 years hasn't been easy, but it's been meaningful and brought critical products to the ag community in Iowa and around the world.  His recent milestone of hiring his own replacements has been one of his greatest accomplishments.

Norman Borlaug revolutionized wheat and all of food production. That was a moon shot of an idea. Raj Shah is looking for the next one from his role as president of the Rockefeller Foundation. The organization's risk capital can take chances with big thoughts he finds and inspires on his return trip to Iowa.

Tune in this week as we delve into the captivating journey of Laura Pauli, a tech-marketer turned chef and accidental activist. Laura, the heart and soul behind Cucina Testerossa and the non profit Feed the World, shares her riveting life story, from her early days in technology marketing to her remarkable transformation to chef and sommlier. Hear her recount how her passion for food and humanitarian efforts led to her making a significant impact on the lives of many with World Central Kitchen, raising funds through GoFundMe to deliver hope in the form of donations, supplies and warmth to Ukrianians.Laura's story serves as a beacon of resilience and determination as she dove deep into the world of humanitarian work that combined her love of food, service, and people. Her tenacity and will to make a difference, leveraged by her Silicon Valley leadership experience, led to her setting up Feed The World, providing a lifeline to the Ukrainian people through volunteerism.  She shares about  her initial ideas for her non profit  to help volunteers, citizens and soldiers with mental heath issues - and how her time in Ukraine helped her understand where she can really make a difference. To round off the episode, we explore the positive ripple effect of Laura's work at midlife, and how it led her to become an accidental activist. From starting with a single email during the early days of the pandemic she turned her weekly online community events into a movement that provided relief and hope and she merged her two passions into one cause - Feed the World.  Laura's journey is a testament to the power of purpose and the change one individual can bring about.

Pastor Rob and Hal Donaldson, President of Convoy of Hope, sat down and talked about the heart and vision for One Day to Feed the World. We are reminded that through our generosity, lives are changed.

Rob Holmes is the founder and co-owner of Eco-Cattle, a ranch in northeast Kansas that raises grass-fed meat using regenerative agricultural processes. Before founding Eco-Cattle, Rob was a biology professor at Hutchinson Community College. Rob earned a PhD in plant biology with a minor in biotechnology from North Carolina State and an undergraduate degree in botany from BYU.

Idaho may be known for its potatoes, but it's also known for its wheat, which is grown by local farmers and sent all over, including overseas. They often help feed the world; particularly countries hobbled by famine, a pandemic or the current war in Ukraine.

With rising temperatures and shifting climates imperilling our crops, the food chain – from planting to consumer – is under threat. This could lead to higher food prices, poor nutrition, hunger and migration. Alisha is in conversation with Professor Ruth Defries, a global expert in ecology and sustainable development, to discuss how the world has become reliant on a small number of crops such as corn and rice, leaving us in a vulnerable position if these staples do not grow well as the planet heats. So how can we encourage climate resilience through crop diversity? They hear from a multi-country research project which is exploring whether indigenous crops could hold the key to creating more sustainable food systems, and meet a South African farmer who is helping keep these old growing traditions alive.  When Science Finds a Way is brought to you by Wellcome, an independent global foundation that supports science to solve the urgent health challenges facing everyone.

What's the best way to produce affordable food, that's good for the planet, and can feed us all? Is it even possible to have all three? In this programme, Grace Livingstone visits small and large farms in England and Argentina. She hears the case made for organic farming, and asks if it's feasible for organic farms to produce enough food to feed a country. At a larger farm, she hears about why farmers rely on fertilisers and herbicides to produce large volumes of affordable food. Is it possible to farm in a way that increases biodiversity and protects the environment, whilst also remaining competitive? And what can we do as consumers to encourage and support greener farming?

A campaign called “ReBoot Food” was launched at the COP27 climate change conference in Egypt, to ask world governments to support a technology called precision fermentation. They claim it's possible to produce enough food to feed the whole world in an area the size of London. The process uses genetically-engineered microbes to make cheap, high quality fats and proteins, virtually identical to those produced by animal farming. Its proponents say it will free up huge tracts of farmland and could even help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. A technology research group is even projecting the collapse of dairy and cattle industries by 2030 with animal meat being replaced by food grown using precision fermentation. But what is it, what are the potential pitfalls, and can the public stomach the idea of protein grown in an a bioreactor rather than on a farm? On this week's Inquiry, we ask: can microbes feed the world?
