"Failure is part of the process. Failure is educational and interesting - and actually, sometimes, speeds things along." - @michaelpollan sharing personal reflections in tonight's final #EdibleEd101 of the semester. "All plans are up in the air right now."

"We're learning the Western Diet is making us more vulnerable to #Covid_19. If you look at the risk factors for being hospitalized for COVID, they are hypertension, obesity, Type-2 diabetes. What do those have in common? They're chronic diseases linked to #diet." - @michaelpollan

@LuminousFoods @michaelpollen Hi @LuminousFoods, here is the livestream of tonight's class: youtube.com/watch?v=kApoju…

In tomorrow's final #EdibleEd101 of the year, we examine connections, patterns, tensions & contradictions that have emerged from the diverse perspectives presented during the semester. In conversation with @michaelpollan we will reflect on our individual and collective journeys.

Join us for tonight's #EdibleEd101 Entrepreneur showcase ft. @cmoseleyfh founder + CEO of @FullHarvestTech, recently named one of the 2020 #FCWorldChangingIdeas for enabling farms to sell misshapen or excess produce to corporate clients #stopfoodwaste bit.ly/3bVrSiM

Food waste is a leading contributor to #climatechange. While it's not a new issue, there's more than meets the eye in your local grocery store. Have you ever thought about how much waste sits at the farm level? bit.ly/3cD0Z2P #FullHarvest @ReFED @ProjectDrawdown

4/29 #EdibleEd101 entrepreneurs Himanshu Gupta, Co-Founder + CEO of @climateai; @cmoseleyfh, Founder + CEO of @FullHarvestTech; and @kimi_le, Co-Founder + CEO of @primerootsfoods share their #innovativesolutions to some of the world's biggest problems: bit.ly/3eVKGQy

#COVID-19 has changed the #food landscape and is impacting farmers & ranchers, families, chefs, and nonprofit partners. Feeling inspired to help? @kitchtabladv offers suggestions on ways to support your local food community! 🥕🍴❤️ ow.ly/Dua650zirNw

“What we’ve been able to do,” says @chefjoseandres, “is weaponize empathy." And what can we do? "You have every opportunity to dream as crazy as you want. Now is a moment that anything is possible.” Grateful for tonight's inspiring conversation with @ideagardener #EdibleEd

We need to think #local first. If we aren’t able to solve the hunger problem in areas where food production and hunger occurs within miles of one another, we cannot begin to take it on at a bigger scale. #foodwaste #hunger @chefjoseandres @WCKitchen @EdibleEd101

So glad I was able to listen in to @EdibleEd101 tonight to hear @chefjoseandres talk about how to feed the world. Change has felt scary lately, but this was such a good reminder of the amazing power we all have to make positive change. Thanks to @UCBerkeley for broadcasting
