Description

Why is it important to be activists? Why shall we raise our voices before COP28? How can we live in a more climate friendly way? Does it make sense to talk about the climate crises now, while so many horrors are happening around the world? 
In this episode I will have a conversation with Elena Lucchiari, the Flash COP campaign manager at Slow Food Youth Network. Elena is a young Italian activist with a background in international development studies. The second guest of today is Shane Holland, Executive Chairman of Slow Food in the UK. Shane is a food writer, a university lecturer, he has a broad knowledge on the COP and he was also actively involved in COP26 in Glasgow. Please stick until the end because in the last part of the podcast we collected a few inputs from our podcast community with practical tips on how to live in a more climate friendly way…

Our food chain is full of surprises and our food is handled by people you will most likely never meet. Where did your coffee come from? Who grew your cocoa for your chocolate? Who made your bread? We are about to start a journey together, finding our way through the food systems. We want to give a stage to the people, whose voices are often not taken into consideration, or who are simply overlooked in the debate around food. We want to demonstrate that we all contribute to a more sustainable food system, that everyone has a story to tell and that there’s a lesson in every single one of them. — Production by Slow Food Youth Network Hosted by Valentina Gritti Music by Leonardo Prieto Dorantes
