- Did you know that about a quarter of our climate change problem stems from agriculture? Yet a growing global population means we need to produce more food. Research shows we can’t do it just by agriculture-we also need to shift our diets and reduce food waste.
Dr. Navin Ramankutty, Director of the UBC Institute for Resources, Environment and Sustainability, looks at sustainable agriculture solutions. He explains the benefits and drawbacks of smaller farms and organic agriculture, and the effects on biodiversity. He looks at meat consumption and the environment, and how following a plant-based diet and eating vegetarian or vegan can help feed the world.

I challenge you to a real discussion on this issue. You are not being honest. I am a seed farmer. I grow only open pollinated heirloom seeds. I use no chemicals. And for the total year I use less than 300 litres of fuel. I am 100 percent carbon neutral farm.You are not discussing the real causes or issues, just talking points to make it sound like your making a impact.
Silence, after 4months still you do not want to have a real discussion or a debate with a real organic/ carbon neutral farmer. You are missing the mark completely.And telling half truths. Debate me…..
