Neither an advocate nor a critic of cultured meat, Benjamin Aldes Wurgaft spent five years researching the phenomenon. In Meat Planet, he reveals how debates about lab-grown meat reach beyond debates about food, examining the links between appetite, growth, and capitalism.

Why aren't we cleaning up the toxic messes and rolling back climate change? And why do so many Americans hate environmentalists?

How To Eat To Save The Planet is the podcast that takes a comprehensive look at sustainable food production from field to fork. Each week, food journalist Gilly Smith looks at how we can learn from the past to net-zero the way we eat by learning some of the traditional skills that have got lost in our shrink-wrapped, consumption-heavy, busy-brained lives, rolling back the years to a time when food came from around the corner, when living off the land meant living lightly on the planet - and to find out how to do it now.
