Is cheap food really cheap? Carolyn Steel, author of Hungry City and Sitopia, explains why our food system is built on hidden costs—from environmental destruction to declining nutrition and social inequality.
She dives into how industrialized farming has depleted our soils, reduced the diversity of our diets, and severed our connection to food. While mass production has made food more affordable, it has also externalized costs—on the planet, on public health, and on the people producing it.
If we truly valued food, we would need to redesign our food systems and rethink how we live.
In just 13 min, we uncover the price we are really paying for "cheap" food.
