Gene Baur is an author, activist and the President and Co-founder of Farm Sanctuary. Questions explored on this episode. Should we minimize harm within the dominant industrial food model or focus efforts to develop a decentralized, local/regional, community-oriented food system? Can plant-based foods truly be a solution to the problems with our current system, or will they get swept up by a model that thrives on extraction, exploitation, oppression, and appropriation of land? Is big meat getting involved in the plant-based space good or bad?
