  • The “cold chain” that delivers our food is inconspicuous but vast. The US alone boasts around 5.5 billion cubic feet of refrigerated space; that’s 150 Empire State Buildings’ worth of freezers. Now, the developing world is catching up. On Zero, Nicola Twilley, author of Frostbite: How Refrigeration Changed Our Food, Our Planet, and Ourselves, discusses how refrigeration became so ubiquitous and what our reliance on it means for our palates and the planet.

    • Past episode with Stacey Abrams on how kitchen-table decisions can cut emissions
    • Past episode with journalist George Monbiot on how the world’s food system needs a radical rethink
    • Past episode with two vertical farming companies taking agriculture indoors
