Why a good story makes food more sustainable: Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall at TEDxExeter

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.

Connecting to our food and the food stories...that IS the KEY! Thank you for this!

I've been watching his shows with great relish since I first heard this man existed but it's really great to see him give a lecture. It's quite refreshing to see such an even headed judicial mind at work taking world information that seems overwhelming and distilling into something we can use in our daily lives.

Very moving and informative! Thank you so much. I will be adding this link to a blog post on 5/4/12- where I will begin to talk about Growing Healthy Kids- and the connection with food you talk about is exactly (albeit veggies) how I will address this concern. Thanks again!
