Episode 2: Feeding the Future The Hot Potato Podcast
-
- Nutrition
The UN has predicted that 2050 will see the global population surpass nine billion. Global food production needs to increase significantly in order to feed us all.
To keep everyone fed in this changing climate, and to make sure food production can be part of slowing and even reversing temperature rise, we have to produce food in a different way.
Of course farmers and food businesses are key to this, so it was a real privilege to talk to a panel that represented both!
The Panel…
Charlie Angelakos, Vice President of Global External Affairs and Sustainability at McCain Foods
Grant F Reid, Chair of the Sustainable Markets Initiative Agribusiness Taskforce; Private Equity Partner; Board Member of Marriott International and Vanguard; and former CEO, Mars Incorporated
Susan Ainsworth, Agrologist and General Manager of the Keystone Potato Producers Association
