Food Glorious Food - Professor Sarah Bridle

In this episode we chat to Professor Sarah Bridle who traded in her high profile career as an astrophysicist to focus on food and what we eat. She is now the Professor of Food, Climate and Society at the University of York. Sarah told us how the battle of food in the climate crisis is not about vegans versus farmers, but enabling better food choices to bring about change.

Sarah's book - ‘Food & Climate Change Without The Hot Air’ provides an invaluable perspective on the reality-versus-perception of the impact on climate change that our diet actually has.

Mum, Will the Planet Die Before I Do?
How to parent in a climate emergency
Journalists Katy Glassborow and Babita Sharma met 25 years ago and remain firm friends, sharing each others highs and lows. They spent their careers investigating news stories, including climate change, but when they both became mums the climate headlines left them in a state of fear. How do you parent in a climate emergency? Katy and Babita decided to consult some of the world’s leading climate thinkers on how to rip up 'parenting' and piece it back together to fit our planetary reality. In each episode you'll hear stark truths, honest conversation and advice to help others navigate this crazy time. Join us for more chat #MumWillThePlanetDie.
