The Sustainable Mindset Ep.5 | Sustainable Infrastructure Linkages; Energy, Water, Land, Food and Environment |

Om kurset

In this episode, MIT alumni and Research Scientist Dr. Afreen Siddiqi of MIT Professional Education hosts a conversation with Claudia Ringler of the Institute of International Food Policy Research to help us better understand the connections between water, energy, food, and land. “Energy matters every time you are trying to get enough water to produce food,” explains Ringler. She also touches on another factor that is closely tied to the previous four; our environment. “Ecosystem health is essential for food security, food production, and obviously for all life on Earth”. Driven by a deep dedication to the field, Dr. Siddiqi inquires with all the right questions and supporting points to aid in uncovering synergies that exist among these interlinkages, as well as solutions to their less beneficial aspects. Tune into the conversation to learn more about these linkages and how they play out in the real world in today’s episode, from MIT Professional Education.
