Online Event

Join The Climate Museum for Talking Climate: Food a conversation at the intersection of climate, inequality, and food on Friday, May 21 at 1pm EST.  RSVP now!

Every aspect of our food systems is affected by climate. How we get our food, where it comes from, what we eat, whose work ensures that food is available in the first place—are all also issues of justice. In this conversation, panelists will discuss food at the intersection of climate and inequality, including food access and sustainability; farmworkers’ rights; prospects for agricultural regeneration; and more. Like all of the Climate Museum’s programs, Talking Climate: Food aims to create ground for community-building, democratic engagement, and civic action on the climate crisis.

The distinguished panel, moderated by Climate Museum director Miranda Massie, includes: 

  • Tony Hillery, Founder and Executive Director of Harlem Grown

  • Cynthia Rosenzweig, Senior Research Scientist at The Earth Institute at Columbia University and at the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies.

With a reading by the celebrated poet Craig Santos Perez

ASL interpretation will be provided at Food. To request additional accommodations or for inquiries about accessibility, please contact Dilshanie Perera at [email protected] or (215) 820-4294.
