Synopsis

An epic journey through space and time exploring one of the most pressing questions of our era: how can we feed the planet a healthy diet, with a global population projected to reach nearly 10 billion and natural resources already under strain from human activity?

From Ukraine to the Democratic Republic of the Congo, via Argentina, moving through food systems, diets, lobbying forces, and farming communities, How to Feed the Planet reveals how some of the greatest conflicts of our time are driven not only by the race for oil and rare earths, but also by the struggle to control land and food resources. A global journalistic investigation in search of answers - starting with the right questions.
