Summary

In Episode #116, I sat down with environmental researcher Nicholas Carter to talk more about grass-fed beef and planetary health. We started by discussing the results from a new, peer-reviewed study of White Oaks Pasture – a farm that for years has claimed their beef is carbon negative – before covering the importance of rewilding for cooling our planet. Find out how changing the foods we eat can help free up land to be rewilded and protect existing forests. We also talked about the UK’s ‘Regenuary’ movement and much more. For more from Nicholas Carter, see Episodes #104, #111, #136, #175, and #230. For more insights and reflections, visit The Proof website for the full show notes. Enjoy, friends.
