Carbon on Your Plate

Thursday, December 03, 2020 | 11:00 a.m. – 11:45 a.m. MST | [email protected]

Do you want to reduce the carbon footprint of your dinner? As Peter Drucker said, “You can’t manage what you can’t measure.” The carbon footprint of various foods is becoming a topic of sometimes heated debate. Join us for a preview of a soon-to-be-released Simpson Centre paper by Drs. Ymène Fouli, Margot Hurlbert, and Roland Kroebel in which we search for GHG emissions estimates for Canada’s major agriculture products, and review the global context for these figures. You will not want to miss this introduction to carbon on your plate.

Speaker:

• Ymène Fouli, Environmental Soil Scientist, Independent Consultant
• Margot Hurlbert, Professor, Canada Research Chair, Tier I
• Roland Kroebel, Research Scientist, Agriculture, and Agri-Food Canada

Moderator:

• Kara Oosterhuis, Western Canadian Field Editor, RealAgriculture

There is no cost to register. The webinar will be hosted via Zoom. Please share this with those who might be interested.
