Podcasts about sustainable food

Welcome to the Plant-Based Canada Podcast! In today's episode, we're joined by Dr. Amar Lalia to discuss the upcoming EAT-Lancet Commission 2.0 report on the planetary health diet. We'll explore key topics including food systems, justice, and environmental impacts, all set to be unveiled in Fall 2025.Dr. Laila is a postdoctoral fellow at the Stockholm Resilience Centre, Sweden, and the University of Guelph, Canada. Amar completed his PhD at the University of Guelph, where he explored the connection between food literacy and food waste among Canadian families with young children, utilizing both qualitative and quantitative methods. Amar is passionate about food systems justice and his goal is to contribute to just and sustainable food system transformation through improvements in food environments so that they are healthy and sustainable for everyone.Resources:EAT-Lancet CommissionA comment paper in the Lancet referring to the EL2 commission's focus on justiceHigh Level Panel of Experts on Food Security and Nutrition reportsFAO's State of food security and nutritionFood System Economics Commission (to provide exact numbers referred to in the episode discussion):The Food System Economics Commission estimates the hidden costs of global food systems at approximately $15 trillion USD per year. However, the net benefits of transforming the food system are valued between $5 to $10 trillion USD annually, which is equivalent to 4-8% of global GDP (2020).In contrast, the cost of transforming the global food system is only 0.2-0.4% of global GDP, making it clearly affordable compared to the substantial global benefits—roughly $20-40 trillion USD.For full details, check out the Executive Summary.Dr. Amar Laila's Socials:ResearchGateORCIDLinkedInPlant-Based Canada's Socials:Instagram  (@plantbasedcanadaorg)FacebookWebsite  (https://www.plantbasedcanada.org/)X / Twitter @PBC_orgBonus PromotionCheck out University of Guelph's online Plant-Based Nutrition Certificate.

Ocean conservation isn't always about what's happening in the water—it's also about the choices we make on land. In this episode, we speak with Maddie Hamann, a former oceanographer turned sustainable food entrepreneur. Maddie shares how her background in ocean science led her to co-found PACHA, a company that creates sourdough buckwheat bread using organic, regenerative practices. From nutrient cycles to sustainable packaging, Maddie explains how oceanography continues to inform her mission—even in the kitchen. Sustainable food systems play a major role in protecting marine environments. Maddie breaks down why she and her partner chose buckwheat, how they built an ocean-friendly food brand, and how consumers can support businesses that align with ocean values. This conversation goes beyond the surface, connecting science, health, and sustainability in a delicious way.

To coincide with the release of our new report, Grazing Livestock: It's not the cow but the how, the latest guest on the SFT Podcast this month is Nic Renison. Nic is a regenerative farmer based in Cumbria where she farms alongside her husband, Paul (Reno), at Cannerheugh Farm. The daughter of dairy farmers, Nic grew up within the conventional, high production agricultural environment, growing food with little thought of the environment. This all changed in 2012 when Nic and Reno had a 'light bulb' moment after visiting an organic farm in Northumberland, which inspired them to start employing more regenerative farming methods. In 2018, alongside Liz Genever, Nic co-founded Carbon Calling – a conference created for farmers, by farmers, to share ideas and exchange knowledge on all things farming and regenerative agriculture. During the episode Nic and Patrick discuss Nic's early farming influences, her and her husband's journey from conventional to regenerative farming methods and the origins of the Carbon Calling conference, and how it supports the wider farming community. To find out more about Nic and Cannerheugh Farm, follow their journey on Instagram and visit their website here.

In this conversation, Dr. Aaron T. Dossey discusses the surprising amount of land clearing around the globe for agriculture and its detrimental effects on the environment, including biodiversity loss and climate change. The solution, according to our guest, is insect protein as a sustainable alternative to traditional livestock because of the efficiency and nutritional benefits of growing insects for food. Dr. Dossey shares his journey into the field of entomophagy, detailing how he transitioned from a passion for insects to founding All Things Bugs LLC where he focuses on the commercialization of insect-based food products. In this conversation, Dr. Aaron T. Dossey discusses the challenges of the insect protein market, the processing techniques he developed, the hurdles faced in scaling production, and the importance of consumer acceptance. Dr. Dossey emphasizes the need for collaboration within the industry and shares his vision for a sustainable future where insect protein becomes a mainstream food source.Key points from this episode:Land clearing contributes significantly to climate change.Deforestation leads to loss of biodiversity and ecosystem degradation.Insect protein is more sustainable than traditional livestock.Insects require less water and resources for production.Insects provide complete proteins and essential nutrients.Funding opportunities can drive innovation in sustainable food sources.Product development in insect protein is complex but necessary.Scaling insect farming can address food security issues.Serendipity plays a role in entrepreneurial success.Innovative processing techniques can enhance the quality of insect protein.Market challenges include competition from lower-quality products.Consumer acceptance is crucial for scaling insect protein products.Collaboration within the industry can lead to more efficient practices.Raising awareness about the benefits of insect protein is essential.Funding and investment are critical for growth in this sector.Sustainable practices can make insect protein a viable alternative.The ingredient price must be competitive for widespread adoption.Consumer products can help normalize insect protein in diets.A better world includes more wild spaces and equitable economic systems. Sound Bites“It appears that land clearing potentially is a bigger problem than climate change.""We're losing species faster than we can track.""Insects are really a no-brainer when you really look at their benefits, their efficiency, all the positive attributes and lack of negative – other than perception, there really aren't a lot of negative attributes.""Insects use very little water compared to livestock. For example I see usually around 1% water use compared to beef, or something in that range.”"Insects are complete proteins, unlike many plants.""We need to scale up sustainable technologies quickly.""We need to reduce beef and dairy consumption.""We are the R&D labs for major food manufacturers." LinksDr Aaron T Dossey on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/aarontdossey/All Things Bugs - https://allthingsbugs.com/All Things Bugs on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/allthingsbugs/All Things Bugs on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/AllthingsbugsAll Things Bugs on X - https://x.com/AllThingsBugsAll Things Bugs on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/user/AllThingsBugsAll Things Bugs on TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@allthingsbugsAll Things Bugs: Leader in Insects as a Sustainable Bioresource - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CgGWStYQC_YBugs In Space: Biomimicry Solution for Sustainable Food on the Moon, Mars and Earth - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vp0S-Gfk_tAInsects as Sustainable Food Ingredients (Book) - https://shop.elsevier.com/books/insects-as-sustainable-food-ingredients/dossey/978-0-12-802856-8Invertebrate Studies Institute - https://isibugs.org/Invertebrate Studies Institute on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/isibugs/Invertebrate Studies Institute on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/InvertebrateStudiesInstitute/Invertebrate Studies Institute on X - https://x.com/ISIBugsInvertebrate Studies Institute Research Video - https://vimeo.com/user48219928Griopro (Ingredient) - https://griopro.com/Some videos:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CgGWStYQC_Yhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vp0S-Gfk_tAhttps://vimeo.com/user48219928…Brands for a Better World Episode Archive - http://brandsforabetterworld.com/Brands for a Better World on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/brand-for-a-better-world/Modern Species - https://modernspecies.com/Modern Species on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/modern-species/Gage Mitchell on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/gagemitchell/…Print Magazine Design Podcasts - https://www.printmag.com/categories/printcast/…Heritage Radio Network - https://heritageradionetwork.org/Heritage Radio Network on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/heritage-radio-network/posts/Heritage Radio Network on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/HeritageRadioNetworkHeritage Radio Network on X - https://x.com/Heritage_RadioHeritage Radio Network on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/heritage_radio/Heritage Radio Network on Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@heritage_radio

We reframe the “egg crisis” (high prices and low supply of commercial hen's eggs in a bird flu outbreak) as a crisis of mass farming of animals, proposing sustainable alternative food solutions that can replace eggs and reduce the spread of zoonotic diseases, pollution, and the killing and harm of millions of wild and domesticated animals. Jennifer and Carrie discuss this in the context of the bird flu outbreak, as avian influenza is spreading and mutating in a variety of animal species (including cows used for dairy and human farm workers) – this infectious pathogen is an increasingly alarming issue for wild animals, farmed animals, and human health. The existence of factory farms keeps viruses circulating, making everyone less safe. We discuss how institutions can help us shift toward safer more humane, plant-based food systems. We end by discussing alternatives to eggs in your baking and cooking.

Send me a messageFactory farming isn't just an animal welfare issue—it's a major driver of climate change, biodiversity loss, and public health risks. In this episode of Climate Confident, I speak with Thom Norman, co-founder of FarmKind, to break down the true environmental costs of industrial animal agriculture and explore solutions.We discuss:✅ How factory farming contributes up to 19% of global greenhouse gas emissions, primarily through methane, deforestation, and fertiliser use.✅ The inefficiencies of animal agriculture—80% of cropland is used to feed livestock, yet it provides only 17% of global calorie intake.✅ The role of antibiotic overuse in factory farming and its link to rising antimicrobial resistance.✅ Why shifting to alternative proteins—such as plant-based and cultivated meat—could significantly reduce emissions and land use.✅ The effectiveness of corporate campaigns in driving industry-wide change, such as the transition away from caged eggs.We also discuss consumer choices and why the focus shouldn't just be on individuals but on systemic change—better policies, clear food labelling, and investment in sustainable food innovation.If you're interested in supporting impactful organisations tackling factory farming, Thom shares how FarmKind helps direct funding to the most effective charities.

The holiday season is a time to gather around the table for meals with family and friends. In today's episode of the ESG Insider podcast, we're exploring how to make food systems more sustainable with Alexander Gillett, Co-founder and CEO of HowGood, a food and personal care product research and data company.  Alexander discusses challenges in measuring the emissions footprint of food products and describes how factors like climate change and regulation are driving changes in the sector. He also talks about how the current food labeling system is confusing for consumers trying to make sustainable purchasing decisions.  Alexander says that making food systems more sustainable requires a holistic approach that goes beyond just tackling carbon emissions.   "If we create a collapse within the food system because of loss of biodiversity or soil health, but we've solved carbon, we're still going to have massive problems feeding the planet," he says.   This piece was published by S&P Global Sustainable1, a part of S&P Global.      Copyright ©2024 by S&P Global   DISCLAIMER   By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that S&P GLOBAL makes no warranty, guarantee, or representation as to the accuracy or sufficiency of the information featured in this Podcast.

Though it certainly wouldn't go down as the biggest acquisition, totally overlooking last week's PROMIX Nutrition deal will prove detrimental for any founder building within the supplement industry. In 2011, Albert Matheny founded PROMIX after being unable to find products that matched his standards for ingredient quality, science-backed performance, and product safety. PROMIX lives by the simple mantra “no artificial anything.” To control the product (and ingredient) quality, PROMIX develops its formulas in-house, controls its own supply chain (with 94% of ingredients sourced from North America), and independent lab testing on finished products is available transparently online. Moreover, PROMIX made a packaging update several years ago that eliminated 97% of the plastic…becoming one of the earliest supplement brands to pioneer paperboard packaging. And that bold strategic narrative of “simplicity is the ultimate form of sophistication” was a fundamental reason why PROMIX was just acquired. But if you haven't noticed over the last probably year, there have been A LOT of Big CPG portfolio architecture shifts. And these actions have mostly centered around deploying a “growth by subtraction” M&A strategic approach that seeks to create a more streamlined, focused company. But for those Big CPG portfolios that already had clarity on “competitive strengths,” you are seeing prioritization of acquisitions that can (1) fit focused parameters but (2) move the needle from a revenue perspective. And if we're talking Big CPG…that means “deal size” preference recently have been billion dollars (or more). So, with Big CPG currently M&A “whale hunting,” why would Paine Schwartz (the largest private equity firm dedicated to sustainable food chain investing) acquire a “smaller supplement brand?” Over the last decade, the performance nutrition segment of the supplement industry has undergone an enormous shift in marketplace dynamics. Imagine this huge pot that's melding together macro shifts in demand drivers and trending supplement industry dimensions like format/occasion expansion, brand strategy, consumer segmentation, and/or ingredients/benefits. The result has been this overall mainstreaming effect that disseminated the supplement subcategories across the entire retail landscape. Yet, it's that intense market expansion that has caused chaos...and opportunities for those that can put together this new puzzle. After Big CPG streamlines (and focuses) their portfolios around competitive strengths, the next logical step should be towards investing in smaller growth brands that have strategic alignment. Though this won't happen overnight, even if mega nutrition trends like “Age of Ozempic,” the protein-ification of grocery, “Make America Healthy Again,” and gut wellness…are driving Big CPG crazy modeling out every strategic if/then gameplan right now. But that's fine if you're Paine Schwartz…because selecting PROMIX means the private equity firm already built conviction around “what/who they believe will win” within that shifting marketplace. Paine Schwartz sees PROMIX as that important puzzle piece. And now it must prioritize deliberate depth over breadth actions that create an even more distinct strategic narrative to fully take advantage of this opportunity…which is a lesson any founder building within the supplement industry should apply to their own business.

"We may think that we're just eating our dinner tonight, but when you multiply it by all of that food every day, every day of the year, everyone in the country, everybody in the world, it's a tremendous production. Just to give you a sense, in the US, we slaughter about 18,000 animals every minute for food just in the United States." - Peter Lehner  Agriculture and our food system are responsible for about a third of greenhouse gas emissions. Yet the food system gets left out of too many climate conversations and the industry is rarely held accountable. I asked Peter Lehner to come on the show and explain what agriculture's role is in climate, and how and why they are so often left off the hook. Peter is one of the leading experts on the impact of agriculture and climate change. He directs Earth Justice's Sustainable Food and Farming program, developing litigation, administrative and legislative strategies to promote a more just and environmentally sound agriculture system and to reduce health, environmental and climate harms from the production of our food. He is also the author of farming for Our Future The Science, Law and Policy of Climate Neutral Agriculture. He also teaches at Columbia and Yale Law schools. Please listen and share.

Dive into Corin Bell's inspiring journey! In this episode, we explore her path from studying Politics and Philosophy in Stockport to tackling food sustainability through her innovative catering business. Corin shares insights on food waste, community impact, and her mission for fairness in food systems. Tune in to discover how she's driving change for a more sustainable future! Corin Bell's Background Corin grew up in Stockport before moving to Manchester for university, where she studied Politics and Philosophy. This academic path was driven by her interest in understanding how systems work. As the first in her family to attend university, she felt nervous but ultimately valued the freedom and opportunities her experience provided, despite studying a subject she considered vocationally useless. Career Journey After university, Corin worked in the public sector, primarily with Manchester City Council, focusing on homelessness and environmental projects. However, she left her job following significant budget cuts after the 2010 election, which greatly affected local authority funding. Exploration of Food Systems Corin's transition into food-related projects stemmed from personal interest rather than a specific career plan. Her work has involved addressing food poverty and sustainability, ultimately leading her to explore the interconnectedness of food systems. Real Junk Food Project Inspired by the Real Junk Food Project in Leeds, Corin and friends launched a similar initiative in Manchester in 2015, aiming to utilise surplus food. They began with pop-up supper clubs offering meals on a pay-as-you-feel basis, though they soon encountered challenges. Challenges with the Pay-as-You-Feel Model Corin highlighted the complexities of the pay-as-you-feel model, including inconsistent income and sustainability issues. To stabilise finances, the decision was made to shift to a catering business with set prices while still supporting community initiatives. Current Work Today, Corin runs a catering business that prioritises reducing food waste and using locally sourced, sustainably produced ingredients. This venture supports community initiatives by providing meals and grocery parcels to those in need, including refugees and low-income families. The catering business, including a café and bar at the People's History Museum, aims to balance commercial activities with community support, demonstrating viable solutions to food system problems while ensuring stable employment for staff. Food Waste Issues Corin emphasised that food waste often occurs not due to spoilage but because it's economically unfeasible to keep surplus food. Businesses may find it cheaper to dispose of excess than to sell it, especially when the food is still edible. Additionally, significant waste happens pre-farm gate, as many farmers opt not to harvest produce that won't sell, contributing to nutritional waste. Retailers often prefer produce with longer shelf lives, leading to the discarding of fresh items that are perfectly ripe but can't be guaranteed to sell. Corin also noted that best before dates are often arbitrary, citing examples like Himalayan sea salt, which can last indefinitely. Community-Centric Business Corin believes in the importance of local businesses over scaling for growth, as local enterprises keep wealth within the community and promote sustainability. She advocates for replicating successful models instead of aggressive expansion to maintain community ties and reduce waste while fostering local entrepreneurship. Consumer Behaviour and Happiness The discussion highlighted the modern consumer culture's focus on constant consumption, which can lead to dissatisfaction. Corin emphasised the need for individuals to find ways to contribute to society meaningfully, especially as younger generations often feel disconnected. She pointed out that true happiness and fulfilment come from personal satisfaction rather than the relentless pursuit of growth or profit. Philosophy and Values Corin underscores the significance of having a philosophical foundation and strong values. Without this grounding, individuals risk becoming mindless consumers, lacking depth and perspective. She calls for systemic change, emphasising that current systems are not designed to support individual happiness and collective well-being. Social Media and Communication Corin discussed the challenges of communication in a visually dominated world, expressing a preference for deeper discussions over memes and quick visuals. Sustainable Living and Political Reform Passionate about sustainable food practices, Corin believes in the need for a fair society and the necessity of shifting agricultural policies towards sustainability, such as reducing red meat consumption. She critiques the government's inability to enact these changes due to political unpopularity, advocating for proportional representation and values-based governance. Balance of Love and Hard Work Corin recognises that success comes from a blend of love and hard work. She acknowledges that unexpected opportunities can alter one's career path. Resources for Learning To promote sustainable living, Corin recommends resources like ethicalconsumer.org for consumers interested in making informed choices. She also suggests staying updated through organisations like Sustain, which advocate for sustainable food systems and policies. Definition of Inspiration For Corin, inspiration is about "lighting a fire," creating energy and motivation within oneself. Looking to the future, she aspires to foster fairness and accountability in the world, advocating for corporate responsibility and empowerment for those who have faced adversity.  Resources:

When we sit down to enjoy a meal, at home or in a restaurant, we're rarely aware of the environmental toll our food choices may take. However, the reality is that the journey from farm to table carries a significant environmental cost, often unseen but deeply impactful. This episode of the EY Sustainability Matters podcast delves deeper into the impact the global food system has on climate change, biodiversity and land use. It also explores how digital innovation can be leveraged to make food production more sustainable without sacrificing quality or taste. Join host Bruno Sarda, EY Americas Climate Change and Sustainability Services Leader, and Hanne Thornam, EY Nordics Head of Climate Change and Sustainability Services, as they interview two leaders in the food sustainability sector to uncover the challenges facing this industry and how technology is playing a key role in addressing them. Stephen Nolan, CEO of Nutritics and the 2022 EY Sustainability Entrepreneur of the Year, shares his insights on integrating sustainable practices within the food and hospitality industry. He debunks myths that equate sustainability with compromised quality or financial viability. Alongside him, Pete Statham, Head of Sustainability and Government Relations at Sysco GB, the world's leading broadline food distributor, discusses the practical applications of Nutritics' software in making large-scale, impactful changes. He shares how even a slight change in one menu item can multiply its positive or negative environmental effect, when delivered to thousands of customers across the world. The discussion closes on a hopeful note, with the guests discussing the vast potential and opportunity that exists within the market to create a more sustainable and resilient food industry for the future. © 2024 Ernst & Young LLP

Hello plant people and welcome back to Herbal Radio! This week will be the second and final episode of our 2-part series featuring the four esteemed organizations that were the recipients of the 2023 Grants 4 Plants Program. For those unfamiliar with Grants 4 Plants, Mountain Rose Herbs created the grant program back in 2018 to support nonprofits, small businesses, and home herbalists who are working towards making this planet a better place. Since its inception, we've proudly been able to fund many invaluable initiatives leading towards organic and sustainable agriculture, herbal education, protection of native and medicinal plants, and environmental stewardship. This week, we are featuring the Therapeutic Farm Assistant and the SUD Counselor of Carl E. Dahl House Community Garden, Breanna Murphy and Kelsey Cass, as well as the Founder of Cincinnati Birth Center | Safer Birth Foundation, Meghan Nowland. We hope each of you listening in today will be inspired by the commendable work these organizations are providing for their communities and beyond. Please be sure to check out the links included below to find out how you can support these invaluable initiatives. We'll see you next week when we hear from the other two organizations that won the 2023 Grants 4 Plants program. For now, we thank you for joining us on another botanical adventure!  Learn more about these organizations and the hard-working faces behind them: Carl E. Dahl House at Evergreen Grove is a residential treatment facility for me with co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders. Unlike traditional treatment facilities, the Carl E. Dahl house used a farm care modality as part of the resident's treatment plans. Working in the gardens and with our rescue animals allows for traditional treatment barriers to be dropped allowing for a more natural approach to self-healing and care. GAAMHA, the parent company of the Carl E. Dahl House, works to create a world where people can get help when they ask for it, no matter who they are. The gardening program allows for our residents to be hands on with nature. The clinical benefits of being able to say they took ownership of garden bed, planted, watered, weeded and cared for the growing plants that eventually will produce foods that naturally heal the body are priceless and cannot be duplicated in a traditional office style treatment model. Breanna Murphy helps manage the day-to-day operations of the animal care part of the program at the Carl E. Dahl House, where they have over 60 animals, many of which are rescues or special needs. Breanna has been working with Kelsey for two years to get the garden project to where it is today. She has her Bachelor's in Sustainable Food and Farming, is a certified Ayurvedic Health Counselor, and has completed 3 herbal apprenticeships. Breanna and her husband have a small homestead and permaculture nursery called Singing Kettle Botanicals, where they focus on perennial food sources and medicinal herbs hardy to zone 5. Kelsey Cass is the Substance Use Disorder (SUD) Counselor at the Carl E Dahl House, and is in recovery herself. Kelsey and Breanna have been working together to implement the garden project as part of their clinical curriculum and therapeutic farming. Kelsey has her Bachelor's in Human Development and Family Studies, is a certified yoga instructor, and certified in permaculture design. She first became connected with GAAMHA and the farm when she started teaching yoga at the farms pilot program a couple of towns over, and volunteered with the clients doing gardening and various nature related activities. “It's been an absolute blessing to work here where I can share all my passions and interests, while helping others, and with the most amazing team of people.” – Kelsey Learn more about Carl E.

Taking your first bite of Chef Jeremy Umansky's fried chicken or pastrami sandwich is one of those blissful food moments that is guaranteed to live in your head rent-free. His secret ingredients? Koji-culturing, foraged edibles, and sustainable food sourcing that earned him four James Beard Award nominations, including Best New Restaurant, Best Chef, and for his recent book Koji Alchemy. Jeremy and his wife Allie La Valle-Umansky opened Larder Delicatessen & Bakery in 2018 in Ohio City's Hingetown district. Larder's menus are constantly evolving and Umansky's innovative techniques remind us of what is possible right in our own backyards.rnrnTraditional knowledge of fermenting and foraging is a cornerstone for many cultures including Indigenous and African American communities. But centuries of colonization and modern urban sprawl decimated natural ecosystems. And the industrialization of our food supply forever shifted America's relationship with the food we eat. Across the country, efforts are underway to improve food sovereignty and reclaim traditional practices.rnrnJoin the City Club as Ideastream's Amy Eddings chats with Chef Jeremy Umansky, on the benefits of foraging, sustainable food sourcing, and the art of fermenting in his book Koji Alchemy.
