Episode Synopsis "Sustainable Food Systems with Sandra Murray"

Have you ever had to chose between buying food and buying a textbook?  Surviving on a diet of mainly two-minute noodles, coffee, and plain pasta is a point of pride for many university students. But food insecurity is linked to a whole host of negative outcomes, including poor mental and physical health and – gasp! - bad grades.  This week on Sustainability @ UTAS, we look at the intersection between food and sustainability with lecturer Sandy Murray. We discuss designing sustainable food systems, the impact of food insecurity on students, and creating a new sustainable food culture at UTAS.  If you’re interested in getting involved with the Sustainable Food on Campus strategy, feel free to send Sandy an email at [email protected].  The UTAS Gardening Society can be found on Facebook at facebook.com/utasgardening.  Got a story you think would be great for the podcast?
