Eat This Podcast: The Man Who Tried to Feed the World
Hello
The Man Who Tried to Feed the World is the title of a new TV documentary about Norman Borlaug, the plant breeder credited with launching the Green Revolution. I chatted to Rob Rapley — writer, director and producer of the film — about Borlaug’s unshakeable belief in technology and some of the more complex origins and consequences of Borlaug’s revolutionary mission.
Take a listen, and let me what you think of the idea that we might have wasted the time Borlaug and the Green Revolution bought us.
Stay healthy.
Jeremy
