Introduction

All of a sudden, it seems that cows are the enemy.

They're destroying the Amazon rainforest, polluting ecosystems, and every time one passes wind, we edge closer to the apocalypse. But cows look so harmless! Can it be true?

As our climate and ecological crisis worsens and calls for sustainability become louder, we're being bombarded with oversimplified messages regarding our problematic eating habits.

Clear, detailed, and accurate information is desperately needed.

Stanford University's Introduction to Food and Our Environment delivers fundamental information on the links between what we eat and the destruction of our environments.

The course is delivered by Dr. Maya Adam, Director of Health Media Innovation at Stanford School of Medicine.

Here, Adam explores the environmental impact of food production and the solutions on the table, both for our present and future.
