A Sustainable Future for Food in NYC

  • Gerald D. Fischbach Auditorium 160 5th Avenue New York, NY, 10010 United States (map)

THE SIMONS FOUNDATION PRESENTS:

Our connection with the foods we eat has become increasingly distant over the last few decades, influenced largely by the complex systems that bring sustenance to our plates. This issue is especially apparent in large cities such as New York.

Such a disconnect raises challenges as we work to improve public health, combat climate change and protect the environment. What are we missing out on by not being more aware and involved in our food systems? And how can communities in metropolitan areas restore those connections?

Join panelists as they sit down with Kelsa Trom, the Simons Foundation’s community network manager, for a discussion that examines the food system challenges we face and sheds light on some of the innovative ways in which scientists, community members and local governments are planning for the future of food.
