Radical Responsibility Podcast with Fleet Maull Ph.D

In this episode of the Radical Responsibility podcast, I'm joined by Robert Cervelli, Executive Director of the Centre for Local Prosperity and a passionate advocate for community building and climate readiness for over 35 years. Robert's work spans innovative tools for economic resilience and climate readiness, with a particular focus on food production. Today, we discuss 'Climate Change & Climate Resilience,' highlighting how enhancing food security and sovereignty at the local level can combat the negative impacts of large-scale agricultural models and strengthen our resilience against threats to our food systems.
We Also Discuss:
-The definitions of food security and food sovereignty in relation to resilience
-The negative impacts of the big Ag model around food quality, food wastage, and inefficient distribution models that have a high carbon footprint Insight into how fragile these food systems are, how reliant we are on them, and how we need to be more resilient given the threats to these systems
