More than half of us globally now live in cities. The United Nations estimates that by 2050, that number will be closer to seven out of ten of us. How can growing cities feed their populations? In this programme Ruth Alexander finds out about the history of how cities grew to their current scale, and some potential solutions to meeting their food needs. Carolyn Steel, architect and author of ‘Hungry City' meets Ruth in London, United Kingdom, to talk about the role of transport and markets in making London the city it is today. Ruth hears about Tokyo, Japan, a city that has spread around ancient farmland rather than build on it. She speaks to Yu Tominaga and Mayumi Kawaguchi who own Hasune farm in central Tokyo, and Professor Makoto Yokohari who studies urban farming at the University of Tokyo. In Namibia, our reporter Frauke Jensen Röschlau reports on the role of informal food vendors on the streets of Windhoek, she interviews Professor Ndeyapo Nickanor, an expert in food security at the University of Namibia. If you'd like to contact the programme you can email thefoodchain@bbc.co.uk. Presented by Ruth Alexander. Produced by Beatrice Pickup. Additional reporting by Frauke Jensen Röschlau.

What is a sitopia, and why does it matter? The term was coined by Carolyn Steel in Hungry City, referencing a utopia which ideologically pivots around food in some way. How has farming been wielded by creatives' in their visions of the future? How have architects and artists imagined sitopias which bring human systems back into harmony with ecology in experimental societies through food? We visit Arcosanti, an architectural and social experimental community in the Arizona desert, and Biosphere 2, the world's largest analog earth system, to examine the role of food in futurist speculation and utopia projects. We look back at food ecologies in sci-fi and NASA's 1970s space farming projections, and hear insight from David Tollas, the general manager of Arcosanti Agriculture, and John Adams, the Deputy Director of Biosphere 2.

Carolyn Steel, the author of Sitopia: How Food Can Change The World and Hungry City was our guest on today's show. I first came across Carolyn's writing when her book Sitopia jumped out at me in a book store in Utrecht and it proceeded to blow my mind. The way she has made me rethink our entire relationship with food has been a revelation and I highly recommend it to anyone who is listening. In the show we get into why Britain has lost it's food culture, reimagining our relationship with food as people and as a society, and why understanding what a good life entails always leads to food.

The coronavirus pandemic has triggered record unemployment and financial strain, and with those challenges comes hunger. Across the country, Americans who've never visited food pantries are seeking help. Here in Dane County, food banks and pantries faced a spike in demand just as grocery shortages made many basics hard to come by. On today's show, we talk to the Cap Times' David Maraniss Fellow Emily Shetler, who spent months visiting food distribution sites to understand how the pandemic has reshaped hunger in Dane County and how these agencies are teaming up with restaurants and farmers to ensure no one goes without.

There simply can be no topic of more significance today than how food shapes our lives and is an integral part of who we are….indeed we are literally what we eat and we live in world moulded and dominated by food. Who can forget in the early days of Covid 19 lockdown—the pathetic sight of people scrambling for the last bag of pasta, and the aisles of empty shelves where once was your favourite fruit and vegetable? Carolyn Steel is a leading thinker on food and cities and her first book Hungry City received international acclaim, establishing her as an influential voice in academia, industry, and the arts. Her Ted Talk ‘How Food Shapes Our Cities’ and has been downloaded 1.25 million times. We first spoke to Carolyn in her London flat nearly a year ago, and today I am delighted to welcome her back, to chat about her stunning new book ‘Sitopia’ – How food can save the world. Carolyn asks possibly the biggest question of all: ’’What makes a good life?’’ A question most of us would say, we haven’t had time to answer. That is of course until now, when time for many is pretty much all we have. Sitopia is Greek for food place and in her deeply researched and wide ranging book, Carolyn assesses why we fail to value food which in turn has led to ‘’climate change, mass extinction, deforestation, soil erosion, water depletion, declining fish stocks, pollution, anti-biotic resistance, diet related disease’ and dare I say it—Covid 19. If there ever was a time to build a fairer more resilient society, now is probably the best time to start, so that we can all lead happier healthier lives. This is Your London Legacy. “I often say to people the food you eat is the future you.” 6:30 Carolyn admits that she is not some serial book writer churning out pages for the sake of cash—her book Hungry City took 7 years for her to write. This attests to her dedication to the thought and research she puts into each line she pens. And on the surface—feeding cities and people seems like an easy thing, fast food is cheap after all, isn’t it? Carolyn argues adamantly that no food is cheap, it simply has the illusion of being monetarily cheap while it is actually eroding the planet and the way we view life, work, and the systems that govern them all. “What would the world look like if we internalized the true cost of food—if we actually valued food again. And it’s revolutionary—it’s a revolutionary idea.” 35:20 Carolyn was one of those people who refused to use Skype before Covid—but she’s adjusted and learned, and it has opened her eye to the opportunity Covid has opened up. Time. Time to think and value things again like baking, pickling, making healthy food yourself. Time to contemplate what food is: food is living things we kill so we can live. It’s a shocking way of looking at, but completely true. Time to contemplate the bonds between where we live in cities and where food comes from the country, and our access to that country to understand our food. This could be one of our last chances to lean into the truth about our survival and the planet's survival. Understanding our economic systems and what work really means in a capitalist society (trying to reduce the labour cost to zero) we have to look to what is actually going to sustain us; relationships, connection, and the planet itself and that which comes from it. I applaud Carolyn for her bold critical thought about some of the most basic necessities civilization needs and how to progress our society coming out of crisis.

As restaurants have shuttered, the rats who depend on an eternal garbage buffet are becoming more bold and competitive—and looking for new homes.
In 2019 scientists warned that our civilisation is in crisis and that we can no longer feed our population a healthy diet while balancing planetary resources. Food is threatening our future. In this episode of AKQA Insight Miriam Plon Sauer, Strategy Director at AKQA Copenhagen welcomes Carolyn Steel; architect and author of Sitopia, and 2013’s Hungry City. Carolyn is an established influential voice on food and cities across academia, industry and the arts; her 2009 TED talk has received over 1.2 million views, and she’s lectured at leading institutions such as The University of Cambridge and the London School of Economics. Together they discuss her provocative and exhilarating vision for how food can save the world.
In our 3rd bonus episode, Christian and Lynsey catch-up with Jane (aka Cardiff food and travel blogger 'Hungry City Hippy') to chat about her wedding, and desire to make it as eco friendly / zero waste as possible. From the venue and booze, to save the dates and flowers, we find out how Jane got on. And for anyone planning their own big day, Jane shares some of her top tips.
Carolyn Steels’ Ted Global talk has been heard over 1 million times and for very good reason. “How Food Shapes Our Cities” is as complex as it is fascinating. Every day, in a city the size of London, 30 million meals are served. But where does all the food come from? Architect Carolyn Steel discusses the daily miracle of feeding a city, and shows how ancient food routes shaped the modern world. Her superb award winning, provocative book ‘Hungry City’ is the backdrop for probably our most relevant conversation to date. “Even in my first year I started to realize that what excited me about architecture wasn’t necessarily buildings, which sounds kind of odd.” [] It didn’t take long for Carolyn to find out that architecture was more than just buildings to her. In her first year of study she started to realize that people’s relationship with buildings and spaces was what drew her to the discipline in the first place. This kicked off a 20 year exploration and searching of this idea all while teaching and practicing architecture with a goal of interjecting real life into the discourse around architecture, since the human element seemed to have taken a backseat throughout her own studies. “Well I often say that the railways were the moment when cities were emancipated from geography.” [] Cities don’t feed themselves. Grain, cows, sheep and chickens all have to be brought into cities—today as well as a thousand years ago. It’s no coincidence street names like Cow Street and Corn Lane persist to this day, as they were the avenues those kinds of food were carted into the city. The geography of transporting food has shaped London, as markets tend to stay in the same place for centuries. Food and the need to eat it is quite literally the sculptor of cities. “A very important thing to say actually is that cheap food doesn’t exist…if you cheapen food you cheapen life.” [] With further advancements in food transportation came great changes in society. It used to be that only the extremely rich didn’t have to think about food of where it came from—something that the lower classes don’t deal with on nearly the same level today, which is quite extraordinary. But with the ease of access to food came a decrease in the quality of that food, and the life that provided it—an epidemic that is not only killing us, but the planet as well. It’s no stretch to say that the global fate of civilization and the world as a whole are all tied up in our practices and ideologies behind our food. Carolyn is still hard at work getting people to think about their food and how it entwines with our life and culture, and her new book “Citopoia” will be push this conversation even further when it releases in March 2020.

This week on Beer Sessions Jimmy and Ray sat down with Seth Wright and Mike Winn of BeerNation.com, a weekly video-based beer blog packed with interviews and a general visual chronicling of the craft beer movement. They were joined by David Urbanos of the iconic “The Ginger Man” beer bar where, from the birth of the American craft beer movement through present day, many a Beer Sessions host or guest has explored the “monster” 70 draught lines. The group was joined by Carolyn Steel, author of “Hungry City” and an expert on food and architecture whose lauded “Food and the City” class at Cambridge combines both. Carolyn, a central London native, expounded on the role of the pub in England today and 200+ years ago, and explained why “small beer” was more popular than water.

TED has become an incredibly popular series of conferences featuring inspiring speakers from around the world. TED is a small non-profit devoted to what they call - "Ideas Worth Spreading." Starting out in 1984 as a conference bringing together people from three worlds: Technology, Entertainment & Design, TED has since broadened its scope to include two annual conferences in California, a global conference in the UK and many on-line resources where more than 700 TEDTalks are now available. TED believes in the power of ideas to change attitudes, lives and ultimately, the world. With a number of the talks delivered at their annual conferences involving food, on this episode, we hear three of those talks including one delivered by well-known television personality Jamie Oliver who speaks passionately about teaching children about food. We hear architect and author Carolyn Steel speaking about the history of how cities fed themselves and we hear author/artist Christien Meindertsma speak about the astonishing afterlife of the ordinay pig, parts of which make their way into at least 185 non-pork products! Voices Jamie Oliver, chef/author, JamieOliver.com (London/Essex, UK) - Jamie Oliver has been drawn to the kitchen since he was a child working in his father's pub-restaurant. As the host of the BBC2 television show Naked Chef launched in the late 90s, Jamie Oliver has built a worldwide network of TV shows, books, cookware and magazines, all based on a formula of simple food. Today, Jamie's focus has been on bringing attention to the changes he believes are needed to the diets of Brits and Americans and has launched campaigns such as Jamie's School Dinner, Ministry of Food and Food Revolution USA. Carolyn Steel, architect/author, Hungry City - (London, UK) Carolyn uses food as a medium to read cities and understand how they work. In her book Hungry City, she traces and puts into historical context food's journey from land to urban table and thence to sewer. Christien Meindertsma, author/artist, PIG 05049 (Rotterdam, Netherlands) - Christien is a dutch artist who explores raw materials in thoughtful ways, making simple books and products to better showcase once-hidden processes. Her second book, titled PIG 05049, documents the astounding array of products that different parts of a pig named 05049 could support -- revealing the lines that link raw materials with producers, products and consumers that have become so invisible in an increasingly globalized world. PIG 05049 was acquired by New York's Museum of Modern Art this past winter.
