Let’s show young people that they have power to tackle one of the biggest threats to our planet: the food system!
Agriculture is one of the biggest drivers of climate change and biodiversity loss. But managed right, farming and fishing can feed people and even preserve habitats and species for the future! In this workshop, we’ll look past the packaging to investigate the environmental impact of meat, air transport and palm oil. On our journey from farm to fork, we’ll inspire students to become conscious consumers and explore creative solutions to one of humanity’s biggest dilemmas: how do we feed a growing population, while protecting the planet?
BIG QUESTIONS
Industrial farming: what are the problems and solutions?
How far does food travel to reach us?
How can we consciously consume palm oil?
