On today's episode, we talk to an amazing activist, Yarim Hinojosa, who has been involved in championing the Plant Based Treaty campaign at the University of Toronto. We'll hear about the initiatives that are taking place on campus to address how our current food systems are fuelling the climate crisis. We'll also learn how universities provide a unique opportunity to implement the Plant Based Treaty and how the benefits of switching to a plant-based food system extend far beyond climate change. It's an inspiring conversation you won't want to miss!
