The future of food? Ask neuroscience | Golnoosh Mahdavi, Mario Ubiali Dhyana Menon | TEDxUdineStudio

Why is cultural neuroscience relevant to the debate on the future of food? Follow three members of an international team dedicated to neuroscience and food, as they explore the deep implications of food on brain functioning, emotions and human identity. An evolutionary journey which has now come to a crucial stage in history: can we save human cultural and emotional identity while revolutionising the way we eat? Future food systems can save the planet, but how to make them Human appears to be a challenge that ultimately can make the difference between erasing our memory as a species… and erasing the species all together. Cultural neuroscience will have a growing influence on this dilemma, ultimately offering an unprecedented deep dive in our relationship with Nature through Food. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx Perché la neuroscienza culturale giocherà un ruolo importante nel futuro dell’alimentazione? Tre voci di un team internazionale che si occupa di neuroscienze e cibo ci guidano alla scoperta dell’influenza del cibo sul funzionamento del cervello, le nostre emozioni e la nostra identità di umani. Un viaggio evolutivo che è giunto ad un bivio fondamentale: possiamo salvare l’identità culturale ed emotiva degli umani mentre rivoluzioniamo completamente i nostri sistemi alimentari? I futuri food system possono salvare il Pianeta, ma la sfida è quella di di renderli davvero umani, a rischio di dover scegliere tra cancellare la nostra memoria di specie … o cancellare l’intera specie! La neuroscienza culturale avrà una enorme influenza su questo dilemma, offrendo una possibilità senza precedenti di esplorare in profondità la relazione che abbiamo con la Natura per il tramite del Cibo. Questo intervento è stato presentato a un evento TEDx che utilizza il format della conferenza TED, ma è stato organizzato in maniera indipendente da una comunità locale. Dhyana Menon is passionate about understanding the interplay between conscious and unconscious processing during multisensory food experiences. As the Technical Account Manager, she strives towards extracting credible Neuro-scientific findings about human behaviour by designing research protocols that provide meaningful insights within the F&B industry. Golnoosh Mahdavi is Director of Innovation, she applies her prior experience as a behavioral neuroscience researcher and professional cook to guiding the team’s overarching research directions on the physiological intersections of food, emotions, and culture. A rather interesting hybrid creature, part philosophy graduate and part entrepreneur, Mario Ubiali has successfully created and run small innovative global companies since 2002. Today he is the happy CEO of Thimus, where he is heavily involved in mentoring a very talented pool of people, spearheading new visions and enjoying the thrill of a trip towards the unknown.

Women Leading Efforts to Uphold Indigenous Rights, Sovereignty, and Due Diligence with Financial Institutions and Corporations

From the frontlines of extractive projects, the boardrooms of financial institutions, to the halls of governments, Indigenous women are leading efforts to uphold Indigenous rights and sovereignty, including the right of Free Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC).

During the event, Indigenous women leaders and global advocates discussed how financial institutions and corporations perpetuate human and Indigenous rights violations in relation to extractive and other industries and the necessary steps these institutions must take to stop these egregious activities— and instead, implement FPIC, Indigenous rights and due diligence, while also investing in solutions within a climate justice framework centering Traditional Ecological Knowledge.

Additionally, given the severity of the climate crisis and existential threat to all of humanity, it is important to highlight that 80% of biodiversity remaining on Earth is in Indigenous lands and territories. Respecting Indigenous knowledge, ways of life, and FPIC, and the right to say “no” to continued extraction, is thus paramount to the discussion.

This was a formal side-event of the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues 2022.

Speakers included:
-- Michelle Cook (Dine’/Navajo), Human rights lawyer and founder of Divest Invest Protect and Indigenous Human Rights Defenders and Corporate Accountability Program

-- Summer Blaze Aubrey (Citizen of the Cherokee Nation and a Descendant of the Blackfeet Nation), Law Fellow, Indigenous Human Rights Defenders & Corporate Accountability Program and Staff Attorney for the International Indian Treaty Council

-- Leila Salazar-Lopez, Executive Director of Amazon Watch

-- Sônia Guajajara (Guajajara), Executive Coordinator for Articulação dos Povos Indígenas do Brasil (APIB)

-- Casey Camp-Horinek (Ponca Nation), Ponca Environmental Ambassador and WECAN Board Member

This richly moving, dynamic, wisdom-packed panel will shift your thinking about the role of business in creating a just, equitable, zero carbon future for humanity and all life on Earth. In commitment to justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion (JEDI) principles, the inaugural B Corp Global Climate Summit (June 29-30 & July 1, 2021), seeks to evolve the business sector’s collective understanding and practice of Climate Justice and its commitment to human-centered, justice-driven approaches to climate action. With the aim of centering those on the frontlines of climate justice work and those whose lived experiences are most proximate to the challenges at hand, Summit conveners invited a select group of climate justice leaders from around the world to share their views on several key issues about the role of business in taking concrete climate action centered in justice. Their conversation focused on four key questions: 1) What is the most important thing for the business community to understand about the impacts of climate change on your community? 2) Where should the business community be focusing its energy in working on climate justice? 3) What is the action businesses could take that would have the greatest positive impact for your community? (Around climate justice?) 4) What do you want to say to businesses that are working on climate justice?

Episode drops Jan 22 on Podbean here: https://ccl.podbean.com/e/ccr-56-tony-campolo-a-cristians-call-to-save-creation/ Last month we featured three Conservative Christians who told us how their faith compels them to promote creation care and climate change solutions. This month we feature one of America’s most widely known Progressive Evangelical Christian thought leaders. Rev. Tony Campolo is professor emeritus of sociology at Eastern University, and he led the Evangelical Association for the Promotion of Education for more than 40 years. Rev. Campolo has written over 50 books on topics that have educated and challenged his Evangelical Christian audience. He has been ahead of his time on a variety of social issues. In 1992 he published the book, How to Rescue the Earth Without Worshiping Nature, A Christian Call to Save Creation. In the book, he seeks to help believers see they have a role to play in caring for creation. Rev. Campolo, who is 85 and has never retired, suffered a stroke in 2020. He is at home recovering with the help of his wife Peggy. Before the Pandemic and his stroke, Citizens Climate Radio’s host, Peterson Toscano, was fortunate enough to sit down with Tony and ask him about his 1992 book. Rev. Campolo reveals his frustration with fellow ministers and accuses them of not listening to God’s voice in regard to the mandate to care for creation. The Art House Returning to the Art House is Jennie Carlisle, the curator and director of the Smith Gallery at Appalachian State University along with Laura England, a senior lecturer. They are two of three co-facilitators of ASU’s Climate Stories Collaborative. Both Jennie and Laura appeared in Episode 49 and told us about how in spring 2020 they quickly adapted to the Covid Global Pandemic by putting their annual Student Climate Stories Showcase onto Instagram. Some climate leaders see art straightforward communication tool. But art overloaded with messages about issues and politics can turn out clunky and preachy. How does an artists stay in a creative space? When producing climate arts, what is more important the process or the product? You can hear standalone version of The Art House at Artists and Climate Change. Good News Report This episode we begin a new feature, The Good News Report. Listeners share their climate successes with us. Good news this month comes from Cathy Orlando in Sudbury, Ontario, Canada. She is the International Outreach Manager for Citizens Climate Lobby and also the Canadian Director. Slow, steady, and relentless climate advocacy has paid off!
