One of the things I get asked about a lot is plant milks, how they compare to dairy and how they compare to each other. The best person to discuss this with is Professor Rosie Green, Chair in Environment, Food and Health at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine. Rosie is a world leading researcher on the link between diets, the environment and human health. In this episode we discuss: The rise of plant based alternative foodsHow their environmental impact compares to meat and dairy productsThe role of plant-based alternatives in transitioning to more sustainable dietsThe challenges and barriers that prevent more people adopting these alternatives You can find a full transcription of the podcast on YouTube.
