Changing the Menu to Combat the Climate Crisis

The topic of climate change occurs frequently throughout the breadth of our studies, and always leads to the same conclusion: our food systems are in serious peril. The pandemic has spotlighted the crisis further, as weather disasters and food insecurity continue to rise at alarming rates around the world. In our eleventh podcast episode, host Neema Syovata talks with Erik Oberhotlzer, Co-Founder of Tender Greens Los Angeles, and an advocate for agro-biodiversity worldwide with the Food Forever Initiative run by The Crop Trust. Together they discuss how home cooks, chefs, and restaurateurs can combat climate change, starting from the kitchen.
