Description
Planet Driven Brands Podcast Emeline Fellus. Emeline is a global leader in sustainable diets within WBCSD, who have for more than 2 decades been demonstrating leadership with its work on Climate, Energy, circular economies, food and nature and now in helping 'redefine capitalism'. Emeline makes a call for systemic change in our eating habits and describes how consumers need help in doing this - 'we shouldn't be scared of changing, but of NOT changing'! Our food systems need a re-balancing and Emeline describes her view on what actually constitutes a 'sustainable' diet. She points out that there is no one single answer due to the varying aspirational demands of cultures, but she believes that everyone needs to act! It is clear this movement needs leaders and Emeline mentions Paul Polman and Emmanuel Faber as such, alongside groups such as WHO and FAO. It is these people we need to turn to push us to make the steps to change and that this is urgent. As she says: "It's if we redirect the subsidies to actually support the better production practices and the better food, I think it would really be able to do a service to the planet and the people and as quickly as possible, because we're running out of time!" Emeline, like all our panellists, is passionate not only about her role but the role everyone is playing in creating a better future and here she spells out many of the steps we simply must be taking, before we run out of time. Here, in Planet Driven Brands Podcast Emeline Fellus shares this passion and her experiences with us. She also helpfully describes what FReSH actually is!
