Towards net-zero and restorative food systems. 

The food we eat is the greatest driver of biodiversity loss. Our food systems are responsible for a quarter of global greenhouse gas emissions. By 2050, we will struggle to feed a population of 9 billion people, unless we change the way we grow, produce and consume our food.

Join Lauren in conversation about how what’s on our plate affects our planet. Find out how we can build a future of food that is carbon neutral, circular and regenerative.
