Something has to change in how we relate to food. Shifting to a plant-based diet is one of the most immediate steps we can take for human and planetary health. Plant-based foods reduce our dependence on animals as a source of protein, and lessen our footprint on the environment.

Join us next week as we discuss how banning factory farms can help prevent future pandemics, the current state of our food supply, GMO’s, the link between plant-based diets and the environment and more!

PANELISTS:

Dr. Sweta Chakraborty — Risk and Behavioral Scientist

Deanna Dahlinger — Registered Dietitian Nutritionist

Udi Lazimy — Global Director of Sourcing and Sustainability, Eat JUST

Jillian Semaan — Director of Food and Environment, Earth Day Network

Caroline Wimberly — Senior Campaign Manager, 50by40
