2℃ #1: Food Security

2° Centigrade is a show where we talk about how climate change is affecting us today, why our everyday choices matter, and what we can do to mitigate those consequences. On this episode, we explore how climate change affects food security, and why it helps ourselves and the environment if we diversify the crops that we cultivate and eat. We speak with Professor Sayed Azam-Ali, CEO of Crops For the Future (CFF), and Chair of the Association of International Research & Development Centers for Agriculture (AIRCA).
