Now even policymakers are creating rules to govern this space. It’s hard to keep up and make sense of it all. So let us help you by sharing some of the most interesting views shaping this space. Join us as we talk to the people living and breathing sustainability – and a few critics too. (We can’t promise this will be a completely jargon-free space, but we shall try!)

Sustainable Views' Elizabeth Meager speaks with Florence Jones about what steps the UK government is taking after high temperatures and unpredictable weather exacerbated food prices, with staples like potatoes increasing 22 per cent between January and February 2024. Florence also looks back on Leon restaurant founder Henry Dimbleby's food strategy review in 2021 and what has changed since one of the more punchy reviews seen in Westminster in the past few years.
Editor Philippa Nuttall explains how the EU is facing the impact of climate change on farming, with the recently passed EU budget giving some sense of the direction of travel.
