Dr. Peter Johnston, a lifestyle medicine practitioner advocating for plant-based diets and environmental activism, shares his journey from his New Zealand roots as a sheep shearer to his personal and professional mission of shedding light on the impact of food systems on climate, health, and animal welfare.

Here’s the sobering truth: We can't feed the whole world today on a Western style diet. There just isn't enough land or resources. It will be even more impossible with the forecast of 10 billion people by mid century.

Dr. Johnston discusses the urgent need for sustainable practices and the consequences of biodiversity loss, deforestation, and antibiotic resistance. He also proposes solutions for each of us to embrace plant-based alternatives and practices for a healthier planet and sustainable future
