In this episode Michael spoke with Brent Loken, a Global Food Lead Scientist at the World Wildlife Fund (WWF). Together they discussed Brent's realization that conservation ultimately needs to engage with how we meet peoples' needs, and that food is at the center of this. After describing the path he has taken leading up to his current position, Brent talked about his work at the WWF to promote a global transformation in our food system.
