While diverse sustainability solutions have been proposed to address t hese challenges at different scales\, considerable uncertainty remains abo ut their scalability\, efficacy\, as well as their desirability for societ y. This talk will examine the current state of food systems and look to th e future with examples of key opportunities as well as key unknowns about the future of food and agriculture this century.\n\nDr. Graham MacDonald i s an assistant professor in the Department of Geography at ɬÀï·¬ Universi ty and the current director of ɬÀ﷬’s Sustainability\, Science\, and Soc iety (SSS) interfaculty Bachelor of Arts and Science program. His research explores agricultural sustainability and food systems\, with a particular focus on linking production and consumption activities. His research span s scales from local urban farming to global croplands.\n\nWatch the record ing Discover the Mini-Science series\n\n\n\n \n Mini-Science is brought to y ou with the generous support of the Trottier Family Foundation.\n\n\n\n \n M ini-Science has been certified a Virtual Sustainable Event by the ɬÀ﷬ O ffice of Sustainability.\n\n DTSTART:20210708T220000Z DTEND:20210708T230000Z SUMMARY:Bicentennial Mini-Science: Connecting the dots: Envisioning a susta inable future food system URL:/science/channels/event/bicentennial-mini-science- connecting-dots-envisioning-sustainable-future-food-system-326929 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
