Environment and
Modern Agriculture
This presentation explores how the current global demand for animal products and related crops affect ecosystems and our health through global warming, the depletion of natural resources, the loss of wildlife, deforestation, ocean depletion, and the pollution of soil, water and air.

Future of Food: Cell-Based & Plant-Based Technologies
Viewers discover how food science innovations have the potential to revolutionize modern food production and consumption systems, as well as address health, sustainability and ethical concerns.
