Joining us on the podcast this week is environmental scientist Nicholas Carter who focuses his academic research on the scientific links between food systems & planetary health.

In his work, Nicholas elaborates on the impact of animal farming on climate change, highlighting how our diet and food system are responsible for climate change issues on a global scale.

He’s published detailed research and articles on sustainable, plant-based farming practices that largely address a number of issues surrounding animal agriculture such as water pollution, land use, and greenhouse emissions. Nicholas is also a co-founder of PlantBasedData.org –an online library of peer-reviewed articles and summaries of the benefits of a plant-based lifestyle.

It contains a multitude of environmental and health research as well as reports, videos, and relevant podcast episodes that I am delighted to welcome Nicholas onto the Plant Based News podcast to discuss the hard scientific facts behind climate change as it pertains to food production and our diet.

The PBN Podcast is hosted and produced by Robbie Lockie, Edited by Phil Marriott.

The Importance Of Bearing Witness & The Plant Based Treaty With Nicola Harris And Anita Krajnc

Welcome back to another episode of the Plant Based News podcast! This week I am delighted to welcome to the podcast animal advocate and founder of Barn Sanctuary Dan McKernan.

Dan’s journey of animal advocacy goes back a few years to when he decided to leave a successful, high-paying job in the tech industry in Austin, Texas. He decided to return to his home in rural Michigan and was intent on transforming his family’s 140-year-old farm into a safe haven for farmed animals. This is how in 2016 Barn Sanctuary was formed. 

Barn Sanctuary in Chelsea, Michigan is dedicated to rescuing and rehabilitating abused and neglected farmed animals in need. It is currently home to over 100 rescued farmed animals, which reside within the 70-acre property. Barn Sanctuary exemplifies Dan’s mission to change the way the world views farmed animals and help lead society towards a more compassionate and plant-based lifestyle.

The PBN Podcast is hosted and produced by Robbie Lockie, Edited by Phil Marriott.

Plant Based Mafia was founded by, Entrepreneur and Film and TV Producer Danny Costanzo, aka "The Plant Father". After a scare in 2014 finding out he had 3 clogged arteries, he set out to recapture his health. That's when he stumbled upon Dr. Esselstyn's book, Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease. In this book you are taught that through a major shift in your diet and adopting a Plant Based Lifestyle, you can stop and in many cases reverse heart disease. Not only can you reverse your heart disease, but you feel reborn. The Plant Based Healthstyle isn't just for those suffering from a disease, but it's for everyone. Our goal is to motivate those that desire Health, Wealth and Happiness, and through a Plant Based Healthstyle, all of those things are possible. This is science, this is real, this isn't some fad that will be gone tomorrow. This is a lifestyle and those that follow it will experience a physical, mental and spiritual awakening unlike you've ever thought possible.
