Food Evolution

This evening we hosted the film screening of Food Evolution. This is a film that takes a look at how our food is produced and the debate over GMO's (genetically modified organisms). This film provides ample knowledge and points to get you thinking. Linked below is the trailer for the film. We encourage you to watch the trailer and utilize the discussion points to guide your conversations around the globe.

If interested in viewing the film in full length refer to the Food Evolution website for proper purchasing and licensing rights.

Discussion Points

  • After watching the trailer what statement or clip got you thinking the most and why?
  • There is a farmer from Uganda that states, "If you don't have food, then you are going to steal. You are going to kill someone." Explain what this statement means. 
  • At one point the statement is made, "You are going to be either GMO or organic. They cannot coexist." What is your take on this statement? Do you agree or disagree? Explain your reasoning.
  • How might this film be perceived differently around the world? How might different cultures and regions of the world react to this video?
