Importance of Nutrition Programs in Schools and Grassroots Movements for Food Education

The speakers discuss the importance of nutrition programs in schools and urge for grassroots movements to address the issue of food education, as the government is unlikely to take action due to lobbying from food companies. They emphasize the impact of early years' food education on individuals' relationships with food and suggest adopting a whole food, plant-based mentality from a young age could reduce weight and obesity problems.
