Sustainability in seafood is a complicated topic. To help us sort it out, I am joined by two special guests. Jon Russel is the Food Justice Organizer for the North American Marine Alliance (NAMA), where he focuses on supporting the fights of BPOC food producers. NAMA is a fishermen-led organization that is building healthy fisheries and fishing communities. Also joining me is Shannon Eldredge. Her family has been in the fishing industry for generations, and Shannon was a shellfish harvester and weir fisherman in the Cape Cod area for years. She currently works for and is on the board of Chatham Harvesters, a fisherman-led seafood cooperative.

On this episode of the podcast, I am joined by Storm Baynes-Ryan, a New Zealand farmer and mother of four. Like many countries around the world, New Zealand has proposed short-sided government policies with the intent of decreasing emissions. And like other similar global policies, the science backing these policies is flawed and does not account for the impact it will have on farmers and rural communities. What is likely to happen is an increase in micronutrient deficiencies once meat is no longer available or affordable and the destruction of the rural way of life. What is often overlooked in these policy debates are the personal stories of farmers experiencing this firsthand. This short but impactful episode will give some insight into how New Zealand farmers are dealing with the new government policies.

Have you ever dreamed of leaving your office job to start a ranch? That’s what Matt Skoglund did. Matt started his career as a lawyer in Chicago, then moved to Montana to work for National Resources Defense Council (NRDC). Even though Matt found working for the NRDC to be interesting and fulfilling, he felt like something was missing. That “something” turned out to be bison. In 2018 Matt and his wife Sarah started North Bridger Bison Ranch and haven’t looked back since. Episode Credits: Thank you to all who’ve made this show possible.

Glen Burrows is the co-founder of The Ethical Butcher, a UK-based online marketplace for meat from regenerative farms. In 2020 Glen started Regenuary as a way to change the conversation around food and the environment. Instead of Veganuary, where the focus is solely on eating vegan for a month, Regenuary encourages everyone, regardless of diet preferences, to look at the sourcing of their food and to choose food from regenerative farming. Even if you aren’t in the UK and can’t access The Ethical Butcher’s delicious products, you can still participate in Regenuary by engaging in open conversations about where our food comes from.

Did you know that the health of your mouth is closely tied to the health of your body? It’s true. My guest today, health-based dentist Dr. Michelle Jorgensen, explains how many of today’s chronic diseases are associated with what’s going on in your mouth and teeth. Michelle’s story is a familiar one. After practicing conventional dentistry for 10 years, she began to develop symptoms that couldn’t be explained or treated. She discovered her condition was caused by mercury poisoning from performing standard dentistry procedures. Not only did her research into her own health resolve her issues, it completely changed the way she practiced. One thing Michelle makes clear is how critical nutrition is to a healthy mouth. If you are concerned with good oral care, this episode is a must-listen.
