About the Course

The UN predicts we will be 9-10 billion people on Earth in 2050. Providing so many people with nutritious foods is a massive challenge and one
that cannot be met by simply upscaling current practices regarding food production and consumption. Providing humanity with nutritional food
is at the center of all decisions related to sustainable development. Agriculture is responsible for 80% of global deforestation. The food systems

They were all nicely introduced but repetitive patterns established boredom. However, the topic itself was very enriching and very high quality resource. I wonder if discussion session can be more effective by including commenting/questioning criterion.
