Earth911 Podcast: Author Mark Easter Serves Up The Blue Plate

The global food system is a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, accounting for about 25% of annual anthropogenic CO2 emissions. This unfortunate reality has led to the planet-warming exhaust of our industrial society. However, what if we could combat the climate crisis through the food we eat? Author Mark J. Easter delves into this conversation, discussing regenerative farming and his latest book, “The Blue Plate: A Food Lover’s Guide to Climate Chaos.”

Mark Easter, an ecologist who has extensively studied the carbon footprint of food at Colorado State University, sheds light on how our diets can play a crucial role in restoring the environment. He identifies a fundamental flaw in industrial farming practices and explores how changing what we eat and how it’s produced can have a positive impact on the planet.

In “The Blue Plate,” Mark explores the concept of regenerative agriculture and carbon farming, showcasing how these methods can not only reduce the carbon footprint of food but also actively restore ecosystems. Whether it’s a small urban farm or vast agricultural lands, he emphasizes the potential for climate solutions in the way we grow, process, and distribute food.

One of the innovative practices highlighted in the book is the use of cover crops and perennial grains like Kernza, a perennial grain known for its ability to sequester carbon from the atmosphere and store it in the soil. By turning farming into a climate-positive practice, these methods offer hope for a more sustainable food system.

Mark’s journey from analyzing greenhouse gas emissions to advocating for low-carbon meals is filled with valuable insights into how our food choices impact the world around us. With the right approach, he believes that the food system can play a significant role in reversing the environmental damage caused by human activities.
