From plate to planet: How our food choices impact the earth

A deep dive into the future of food, from regenerative farming to corporate giants - how can we be part of the solution?

How we produce food is one of the biggest factors shaping our health, environment, and climate. But what does a truly sustainable food system look like? Louis De Jaeger has traveled the world, speaking with farmers, activists, scientists, and policymakers - while also confronting agribusiness giants like Bayer and Monsanto - to uncover the future of food.


At TheMerode, De Jaeger will explore how agriculture influences climate and weather, the reality behind organic farming, GMOs, and the nitrogen crisis, and, most importantly, how we can all be part of the solution. 


This event marks the presentation of his latest book, SOS: Save Our Soils, a call to action on how regenerative food and farming practices can be transformative—not just for the environment, but for our own well-being.

Don’t miss this chance to hear from one of the leading voices in food sustainability.
