50 Years Vegan: One Man's Story of Health, Ethics, and Saving the Planet with Glen Merzer

In this powerful episode we dive deep into the intersection of food, health, and climate change with Glen Merzer, author of *Food is Climate* and passionate advocate for plant-based living. Glenn shares his personal journey from vegetarianism to veganism, driven by his family history of heart disease, and the unexpected health transformation that followed. He also discusses the urgent environmental impact of animal agriculture, which contributes significantly to greenhouse gases, deforestation, and water pollution.

Learn how giving up meat, even one day a week, can drastically reduce emissions—comparable to taking 25 million cars off the road. Glenn's compelling perspective reveals how the world’s overreliance on animal agriculture is a key factor in the climate emergency. From the critical role of trees in cooling the planet to the importance of shifting societal systems in healthcare, education, and prisons to plant-based options, Glenn advocates for a radical yet necessary shift in how we feed ourselves to ensure a healthier planet and population.

Tune in as we explore the urgent need for change, from health-conscious eating to rewilding the earth, and how you can make a real difference by embracing plant-based foods. Don't miss this insightful conversation on how our food choices can reshape the world! 🌱
