Episode description
Agriculture has enabled the existence of civilization—today, approximately 40 percent of our planet is farmland. So it goes without saying there’s a LOT to cover when it comes to talking about modern food production. Dan starts small with something a little more digestible: which milk is best, for you and for the planet? He’ll teach us how to sip sustainably, then take us on a journey through a “perfect” sustainable farm of the future and what we can do to make it a reality.

Cunningham, with fact-checking by Joseph Isaac. And “Can we create the perfect farm?” was written by Brent Loken, with fact-checking by Eden Girma. Both pieces were produced with editorial support from Emma Bryce and Elizabeth Cox.
