REGENESIS
6 – 7pm Thursday 17 Nov Brewery Arts Theatre Tickets £12.50
In this much anticipated event, the author, Guardian columnist and environmental campaigner, George Monbiot asks ‘what if there were a way to stop climate change and end global hunger at the same time?’ and offers a breathtaking vision of a new future for food and for humanity. Drawing on his new book Regenesis, George shares his profoundly hopeful, appetising and exciting vision of food: of revolutionary cultivation and cuisine that could nourish us all and restore our world of wonders. George Monbiot will be in conversation with Lee Schofield.
“Fascinating and ultimately positive... a harmonic vision of how changing our relationship to land use, farming and the food that we eat could transform our lives.” Thom Yorke
