Exploring the Soul of 85,000 Food Opportunities
In a night full of reflection and ecological awareness, the collective defender of nature, Terra Viva, organized an unprecedented event at the Els Horts cultural space, in the heart of Sant Feliu. The atmosphere vibrated with the fervor of a conversation that reminded us that every meal is an opportunity: 85,000 opportunities in a lifetime to choose an Earth-respecting way of eating.
The Revealing Exhibition: Eat, Connect, Transform
The protagonist of the night, the committed environmentalist Oriol Vidal, led the immersion in the exhibition ‘Food for a Sustainable Future’. Vidal, linked to the Terra Nova initiative, revealed the urgent need to rethink our relationship with food and how it directly influences the global climate and ecological crisis.
The curator of the exhibition, the biodiversity enthusiast Laia Garcia, guided the attendees through a visual and informative journey that showed the impacts of our eating habits on the planet. ‘Each bite is an act of power’, remarked Garcia, highlighting the transformative capacity of everyday choices about the environment.
Deciphering the Anthropocene: A Critical Moment for Earth
Under the expert guidance of climate change researcher Marcel Bosch, the start of the Anthropocene and its ramifications in the present were explored. ‘Since the 1950s, we have taken the helm of a ship called Earth and steered it into unknown and dangerous territories,’ Bosch said, stressing humanity’s responsibility in transforming the planetary environment.
The exhibition forcefully showed the devastating effects of emissions, waste and mass production of food. Through shocking images and alarming statistics, the urgent need to adopt a new food mentality was highlighted.
Opportunities on the Table: Strategies for a Sustainable Future
The high point of the evening came with the intervention of nutritionist committed to the environment, Marta López. Lopez proposed a series of tangible measures to change the course of our relationship with food. ‘Every bite is a choice’, he stressed, encouraging to adopt a diet based on proximity, season and sustainability.
Reducing food waste and transitioning to a more plant-based diet emerged as fundamental pillars in the fight against climate change. ‘Each plate is a political and environmental statement’, López concluded, instilling hope and commitment in the transformation of the global food system.
An Invitation to Action
At the end of the evening, attendees committed to putting into practice the principles of sustainable food learned during the exhibition. ‘It’s time to act’, exclaimed Xavier Soler, an active member of Terra Viva. ‘Every meal is an opportunity to change the world’, he added, urging the collective to embrace a future where sustainability is the norm, not the exception.
