Food Choices for Our Health and Environment

Color Pittsford Green presents a panel discussion on the impacts of food production on the environment. The current system is a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions and climate change and is a major cause of biodiversity loss and pollution. However, changing our food choices can provide a meaningful way to both tackle climate change and to improve human health. Discussion will cover local initiatives that support resilient systems supporting human and planetary health. Registration recommended.
