If you are wondering what to think of veganism and vegeterianism, or if you are trying to reduce your carbon footprint, but don't know where to start - this is the read for you! Let's see what a truly sustainable diet can look like!

The yearly meat consumption in the EU is on average 70 kg, in the USA 100 kg and in Ethiopia 3 kg of meat per person. If all people on Earth would want to eat the same amount of meat as Americans do, we would need twice as much grain to feed all the animals. However, we need to look at the bigger picture for finding an answer to the question what a sustainable diet really is. "Land doesn't equal land, and one animal doesn't equal the other." I will explore this matter from multiple angles, including the issue of global warming, agronomic properties of the land, justice, health, history and sustainability.

Join me in this exciting episode as we are looking at practical ways in which we can change the world - on our plate!
