After discussing this, Dr Olivier Jolliet - senior author of the recent publication in the journal Nature Food (https://rdcu.be/cuVht) - will answer your questions about the wide choice and diversity of foods we can select from to make a substantial difference for the health of our planet and for our own health. We will also shortly present on the University of Michigan School of Public Health Department of Environmental Health Sciences’ interdisciplinary graduate programs that prepare students for meaningful careers to prevent harmful impacts on human health from the environment. Dr. Olivier Jolliet is Full Professor of Environmental Health Sciences at the School of Public Health, University of Michigan. Dr. Jolliet has pioneered the development of the life cycle assessment (LCA) method for agriculture and food production since the early 1990s, comparing nutritional and environmental impacts of food systems. He has recently determined minutes of healthy life gained and lost for 5800 individual foods (https://rdcu.be/cuVht), a high impact research paper reported on by more than 1000 news media with an estimated reach of 1.3 billion people.
