I’ve been to Mars and played with Elvis; I haven’t been interviewed by a real forage agronomist, until now…

Peter Ballerstedt, PhD (@Grassbased) has been a mentor to me since discovering the interconnectedness between our health, metabolic health, and the food that we produce to sustain it. The quote in the title comes from Peter, not from me, and has personally helped me frame the goals we are trying to reach when we think about sustainability, because

  • Climate change is a threat to human health
  • Metabolic disease is a threat to human health
  • We have to take steps to mitigate both
  • This is the decade of “data over dogma”

The podcast is a bit “world according to Ted.” In some circles this is entertaining 🙂 .

Or as it was once sung…

A great illustration of the challenge that environmental advocates seem to have in understanding the science of nutrition – nothing about this photograph says “health” OR “sustainability”
