About this listen

Welcome to our podcast series called Food, Climate & the Pandemic

Though conversations with amazing thought leaders it drives fresh thinking and inspiration for regeneration of the food industry.


New models will be needed to combat climate change in a world that will emerge from the pandemic with record national, personal and corporate debt and with it, depreciated assets, declining consumption and disposable incomes.


But in the face of these challenges, we have witnessed unprecedented transformation. In the past months, human behaviour has modified around the world and a new level of collaboration between people, companies and nations has been forged to confront a problem facing all of humanity.


This podcast series will ask the hard questions of key thought-leaders from the world’s sustainability front-line. Coming from the food industry angle, it will provide a brutally honest and pragmatic dialogue to radically question the status quo and existing climate change strategies. It provides new thinking and solutions which can inspire and create new deployable strategies for the food industry and the world that depends on it.

  • REGENERATIVE LEADERSHIP

    REGENERATIVE LEADERSHIP
    Jul 2 2020

    During this series we have explored different aspects of our food industry and its web of largely destructive systems which are being scrutinised in the face of Climate Change and human health crisis like the Covid-19 pandemic. Our current operating systems are degenerative, destructive, extractive, wasteful, risky and fragile while regenerative systems promote connection, creativity, diversity, balance and resilience. In other words, we need transformational systems change.

    All of our podcast guests have shared hope for a continued awakening of corporate consciousness.

    With some great visionaries, we have discussed how to plan and navigate the future that want to see and what became apparent was the need for transformative change. It’s obvious to us that the conditioning and the mindset which has created the problem will not be able to provide the solution, so how do we go about this?


    How do we become leaders of regeneration?

    Jun 10 2020

    The global pandemic has arguably created a new consciousness about our consumption habits, in particular about how we are sourcing food and the mountain of packaging that comes with it. Households are at home for weeks literally following the accumulation of waste both food and packaging. The importance of reusing and recycling materials has never been more evident and may energise efforts around waste management and new business models that prevent waste in the first place.

  • HOW CAN WE USE THE PANDEMIC MODEL FOR GOOD?

    HOW CAN WE USE THE PANDEMIC MODEL FOR GOOD?
    May 27 2020

    In a time of unprecedented disruption to the usual dynamic of living and working, where time allows for reflection, contemplation and connection, we are even more fervently questioning the unsustainable growth model that has, until now, been driving the world. This new global paradigm has in many ways forced to re-purpose ourselves and our activities.


    This episode touches on our collective grief and its power to shape a more inclusive food system leading with heart and purpose.
