Re-Thinking Food: Transforming Food Systems for People and Planet | Frank Eyhorn | TEDxIHEID

Climate change, biodiversity loss, poverty, health issues: what we eat and how we produce our food is shaping the face of our planet and of our societies like no other human activity. The hidden costs of cheap food are mind-blowing. At the same time, food is currently one of the most powerful levers for changing things for good. No need to be dogmatic or stop enjoying food. But re-thinking the way we look at food, and re-shaping the rules of the game that determine food systems, will have an enormous impact.
