Kale It Quits: Going Plant-Based for the Planet

Nov 6, 2021 | 1:30 PM GMT - 2:00 PM GMT

Description

With scientific evidence piling up about the impact of food systems on the climate crisis, many young people are embracing more plant-based foods and including fewer animal products in their diets. However, this is not necessarily a novel practice: from India to Ethiopia, from Ghana to Jamaica, many cultures across the world have been eating heavily plant-based diets for centuries – long before ‘going vegan’ was a trend. Join this Youth Daily Show and take a culinary trip to Ghana and Malaysia to visit two aspiring young vegan chefs. Who knows, we might even learn a new recipe or two!
