Letās finish discussing our book āMeals to Come- The History of the Future of Food.āĀ
If you havenāt listened to the previous episode, no, But itās not required; I will summarise the key points.
Ā You will hear aboutĀ
Ā - how modern solutions of cornucopias, Malthusian, and egalitarians look like
Ā - why it can be useful to add an ecological perspective
Ā - a tapestry of some of my favorite quotes from the book discussing how belief systems and rhetoric have shaped the future of food predictions. Super, super interesting.
Ā And after about 10 minutes of that, we will get into the summary of the entire season.
I am joined by my cohost if Frank Alexander Kuehne, the Chief of the Advisory Board of the herb and spice producer RAPS and the Managing director of the Adalbert Raps Foundation, funding research on sustainable food science. More on that later
Here is a quick reminder from last episode describing the three types of food futurists - cornucopias, Malthusians and Egalitarians.
1. Cornocopians believe "innovation will fix anything" and throw tech at any problem. We need to go better, faster, and stronger with new approaches.
Main theme -> Innovate (biotech in food, cell ag, novel fertilizers, etc.)
2. Modern Malthusians believe we need to reduce our consumption, respect the earth's limits and find ways to reduce, reuse and recycle.
Main theme -> Save (AI to reduce food waste, CSR)
3. Egalitarians believe we would have enough if we would share it better. Environmental issues are a reflection of social inequality. Local is beautiful.
Main theme -> Share (Local markets, local food production, foreign development)
4. Ecologists (a category I added) believe we must live in line with nature again. Get off the chemical, agricultural treadmill and think in ecosystems.
Main theme -> Restore (agroforests, regenerative agriculture)
Ultimately, the solution is not an either-or but an "and." It helps to be aware of one "default" view and recognize which other perspectives may be good to develop.
