Zoom: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/85796615336?pwd=Y3NwSEpPRVBiYlhLcmJwT3pkM3NPQT09

"Our Changing Menu: Climate Change and the Foods We Love and Need"

Dr. Mike Hoffmann, will give a presentation based on his new book, "Our Changing Menu: Climate Change and the Foods We Love and Need," and the companion website. Written by Hoffmann and Carrie Koplinka-Loehr and Danielle L. Eiseman, the authors “offer an eye-opening journey through a complete menu of before-dinner drinks and salads; main courses and sides; and coffee and dessert. Our Changing Menu is a celebration of food and a call to action―encouraging readers to join with others from the common ground of food to help tackle the greatest challenge of our time. Their story is rounded out with a primer on the global food system, the causes and impacts of climate change, and what we can all do.” Come prepared to consider how we can start a climate change social movement using food – we all eat.

Dr. Hoffmann is Professor Emeritus, College of Agriculture and Life Sciences and fellow at the Cornell Atkinson Center for Sustainability. Hoffmann dedicates all of his time to the grand challenge of climate change and helps people understand and appreciate what is happening through food. Melting glaciers are bad enough but the loss of coffee is downright terrifying.
