   Dr.Christopher Golden on The Climate Crisis & Creating Change | Episode 7

   The pandemic has revealed how vulnerable the world population is to deadly viruses. Understanding how these viruses spread through human populations and where they come from is vital to prevent the next global public health crisis. Climate change is no longer that fuzzy concept that we can’t see. In the recent past there have been devastating fires in California, record floods in Europe and Africa, and even heatwaves and extreme drought here in India. Whether we choose to accept it or not – it’s here. While these changes are concerning for a huge number of reasons a big concern is how it affects the ability to grow food – which in turn affects climate change. If you’re sitting back and wondering what can one person do to tackle this monumental task – here’s a reminder that you have the power to create change. Today, we have Dr.Christopher Golden with us - who is a professor of nutrition and planetary health at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, where he investigates the nexus of trends in global environmental change and human health. He holds a B.A. from Harvard College and an M.P.H. in epidemiology and a Ph.D. in environmental science from the University of California, Berkeley. For the past 20 years, Dr. Golden has been conducting environmental and public health research in Madagascar, where he created the nonprofit Madagascar Health and Environmental Research (MAHERY). More recently, he has launched a similar research initiative in the South Pacific. His research has been published more than 10 times in Nature, Science, and the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

   Welcome To LifestyleRX

   Lifestyle RX – a new series that hosts leading global experts, Kripa's mentors from Harvard, inspirational leaders , and thought technicians from multiple fields. The series is aimed at separating health from havoc - in this day and age of misinformation. Our current healthcare paradigm – largely views chronic diseases from the treatment lens, but, these conditions are also preventable and to an extent, reversible. Given my nutrition background, I strongly believe that while food can be one of the causes of disease – it can also be the solution. It is evident that the answer to several of our troubles may lie in our lifestyles – the matrix that integrates sound nutrition, purposeful movement, environmental health, mental wellbeing, and psycho-spiritual needs. Welcome to Lifestyle RX, a beyond medicine approach by Burgers To Beasts. I’m super excited to have you here and I can’t wait to along this journey with you. Stay tuned for more!
