Food's planetary environmental impacts and an integrated solution.

Recently more and more research appears about the impact of our food on the environment. Join us in this talk exploring a solution to food's staggering toll on the earth. Based on data on 40,000 farms in 120 countries we will discuss mandatory environmental labels - displaying emissions, pesticide toxicity, water use, and impact on biodiversity. How can we make producers accountable for their impacts; support effective taxes and subsidies; and drive the essential transition away from meat and dairy?
