About this listen

“For centuries, primitive hunter-gatherers lived precarious and uncertain lives. Still, they developed adaptive skills that allowed them to conquer all the continents and ecosystems on the planet. Domestication of plants and animals led to the establishment of great civilizations which are at the base of contemporary, highly globalized societies. Food security has been decisive for human progress. Paradoxically, the food systems that sustained that progress in the last few centuries have become a “sword of Damocles,” as food production today is the main cause of biodiversity loss and one of the largest sources of greenhouse gas emissions, thus contributing to climate change.
This wonderful book by Carlos Francisco Echeverria fully portrays that paradox. Either we change our food systems, or they will prevent us from reaching our goals of sustainability and global food security.”
