Healthy People, Healthy Planet
The Healthy People, Healthy Planet Podcast explores a simple question with complicated answers: What should we eat if we want to be healthy without harming the planet?
In each episode, researchers and experts unpack the science behind sustainable diets and explain why food choices are rarely as simple as “good” or “bad”.
You will learn how diet connects to health, climate, food systems and the cultural habits that shape what we eat, from what defines a sustainable diet to why changing our behaviour is so difficult.
If you want a clearer and more nuanced understanding of sustainable diets and the trade-offs behind them, this podcast will help you make sense of the science.
