Food Sovereignty - Episode 2522
Episode 2522 - On this Friday's show Vinnie Tortorich speaks with farmers Natalie Kovarik and Tara Vander Dussen to discuss agriculture, climate, food sovereignty, raw milk, and more.
Managing the Landscape
The political landscape has been on fire lately, but knowing that there is a steadiness between the extremes is comforting. (2:00)
Natalie is a cattle rancher and Tara is a dairy farmer and have been involved with agriculture for decades.
They are co-hosts of a podcast called “Discover Ag” discussing agriculture and where your food comes from. (9:00)
They discuss some of the challenges they encounter, such as animal activists. (11:00)
The fringe sides can drum up a lot of attention.
Regarding food, science and emotions are put on the same level. (25:00)
They discuss the conversation over the decades about fat, cholesterol, and the health of meat. (29:00)
Food Sovereignty and the Climate
The discussion about carbon footprints is also a challenge. (34:00)
Carbon emissions for farming are nuanced; there are many factors to consider.
It’s not just “carbon in, carbon out.”
Ruminants keep soil healthy enough to grow food.
The truth is nature is harsh, but society has been molded by “the Disney effect.” (38:00)
They discuss the climate over 100 years ago. (43:30)
Lab-grown or cultured meat is gives a false sense of being better for the environment, yet it takes all kinds of energy to make it. (45:00)
There is not enough data available to explain the implications, let alone make claims of “benefits.”
Vinnie shares his inspiration for “Beyond Impossible.”
Countries having food sovereignty is important.
A “food patent” raises the question of who gets to own the source of food for others. (49:00)
A good example of what happens with this is how Big Pharma controls meds and their cost and availability.
They share an enthusiasm for rodeo and bull riding. (58:00)
Educated Food Choice
Raw milk vs. Homogenized milk. (58:00)
They are for food choice.
Pasteurization was crucial to food in history at one time.
