Digital Food DVD
Grades 7-12.
Modern food production is largely dependent on fossil fuels. Now that we are beginning to reach the end of the fossil fuel supplies, the main question remains: How will we feed a global population of nine billion people in 2050? In the Netherlands, Belgium, and Silicon Valley, numerous startups have sprung up that use smart technology, big data, and new distribution systems to find solutions. This program explores tomorrow’s food, which not only needs to be sustainable, tasty, and organic, but mainly nutritious and, above all, sufficient to feed the entire planet. Will the approach of this new generation of food startups help us to ensure the necessary quantity and quality of food in the future? 48 minutes. Closed captioned. Copyright 2015.
