Our current food system is a leading cause of biodiversity loss and global warming. It is also responsible for increasing the risk of diabetes, stroke, and heart disease, as well as public health threats such as antimicrobial resistance and pandemics emerging from industrial animal agriculture.Scientists agree we cannot reach our climate targets without significantly changing diets heavy in animal products. However, food choice can be complex and controversial, and it’s unclear how to move dietary change up the policy agenda, or where and when to intervene to ensure a ‘just transition’.Weaving together diverse but complementary perspectives and areas of focus around the common themes of sustainability, health, and wellbeing, this panel discussion will address the ethical, logistical, and technical challenges of transitioning to a more planet-friendly food system.Meet your speakersChris Bryant is the Founder and Executive Director of Bryant Research, a think tank which uses social science to help animal non-profits and alternative protein companies advance the protein transition. He has his PhD in Psychology, and has published dozens of scientific and policy papers on the social dimensions of alternative proteins and meat reduction.Tara Garnett is a researcher at the University of Oxford, and the Director of TABLE . TABLE explores visions for the future of food, and provides a platform for interdisciplinary knowledge and dialogue. Her work centres on the interactions among food, climate, health and broader sustainability issues; she has a particular interest in livestock as a sector where many of these converge. She is also interested in how knowledge is communicated to and interpreted by policy makers, civil society organisations and industry, and in the values that these different stakeholders bring to food problems and possible solutions.Natalia Lawrence is an Associate Professor of Psychology at the University of Exeter. Her research focuses on behaviour change for healthier and more sustainable diets. She studies how self-control, emotions and habits influence eating behaviour, aiming to develop effective interventions for dietary change and has published over 100 scientific papers. Her innovative Food Trainer app (with over 100,000 downloads) trains people to inhibit responding to unhealthy or unsustainable foods to reduce intake. She also studies the effects of meat-free challenges such as Veganuary and changing the defaults at catered events from meat to vegetarian food. She has worked with national and local food campaigns, such as Veganuary and Sugar Smart Devon and is a member of the University of Exeter’s Climate Advocate Taskforce, helping to shape and deliver sustainability action at the University.Dr Feiyang Wang is a Research Officer at the Jeremy Coller Centre for Animal Sentience, where she leads research projects under the Centre’s Changing Human Behaviour priority area.
