Introducing: Living Planet
Friday, 24 March, 2023
Hey, Heat of the Moment Listeners! We want to recommend another show for you. Living Planet is a podcast and radio program from Germany’s international broadcaster, Deutsche Welle (DW). Hosted by Charli Shield and Sam Baker, each week Living Planet reports on environmental stories from around the world. This episode of Living Planet looks at the specific portion of the global energy sector that is derived from crops like corn or wheat – exploring how they came to be, their promises and drawbacks, and why it is we're still using them. Traveling from Germany to the U.S. to Kenya, the Living Planet team asks if we still need to be using these fuels, or if there are more sustainable alternatives. In a world of high energy prices and high food prices, does it make sense to be growing crops for fuel that could otherwise be food?
