Food For Thought

An updated version of one of our most popular original video presentations, "The Ethics of Eating."  Explore what "ethics" means and how they apply to our food choices in this multi-part presentation that can be shown in 1 or 2 days.  Examine the conditions and treatment of animals in modern agriculture, the occupational hazards for workers in the industry, and how these issues are driven by consumer demand for certain products. Viewers will learn how to apply this knowledge to reduce the negative impacts of our food systems and make food choices that better align with their own values. These materials are available in English and Spanish using global data, with captions in EN, ES, FR, DE, PL, PT, and PT-BR. The duration is 53 minutes.

“Food For Thought” is intended for viewers ages 12 and up. This content is currently offered in English using country-specific data for audiences in the United States and Canada.
