Feeding the future: How to change food production and diet to sustain the global population- NBC News

Experts discuss ways to promote sustainable agricultural practices and dietary habits.

With the world’s population projected to reach almost 10 billion by 2050, experts are looking for ways to make sure everyone will have enough to eat while promoting farming practices and dietary habits that will do a better job of protecting human health and that of the planet.

“We are not providing most people a healthy diet, our agricultural systems are degrading the natural resources needed for food production, and we will add more than 2 billion more people to feed,” Walter Willett, a professor of epidemiology and nutrition at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, told NBC News MACH in an email.
