Molly Jahn: The Real Risks in the Food System

Ep. 65:  Dr. Molly Jahn - Prof. Univ. of Wisconsin-Madison - Dept. of Agronomy; the Nelson Institute; the Global Health Institute; and chairs the Scientific Advisory Council of Energy &amp; Environment @ DOE Oak Ridge Labs ||  Dr. Molly Jahn is a professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in the Department of Agronomy, the Nelson Institute, and the Global Health Institute, and chairs the Scientific Advisory Council of the Energy and Environmental Sciences Directorate at the US Department of Energy Oak Ridge National Laboratory.   Professor Jahn leads a global alliance of research organizations focused on building and testing modern knowledge systems for sustainability. An award-winning teacher and researcher, Jahn also consults globally for business, governments, philanthropic organizations and others. During our 45 minute conversation we gain Dr. Jahn's perspective on what it'll take to address climate change on a planet of 7.6 billion people. We also discuss how our current approach in producing food and using water are in fact one of the most pressing National security concerns. Dr. Jahn shares how the Government shutdown at the end of '18 / early '19 is impacting real science which so vital in dealing with climate issues in a timely fashion. And, how that science is now losing traction under current governance. Dr. Molly Jahn has previously served as dean of the University of Wisconsin’s College of Agricultural and Life Sciences, and Director of the Wisconsin Agricultural Experiment Station.  From 2009-10, she served as Deputy and Acting Under Secretary of Research, Education, and Economics at the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

ep. 65: Dr. Molly Jahn  - Univ. of Wisconsin

Dr. Molly Jahn is professor of genetics at University of Wisconsin - Madison. Her work in traditional plant breeding has contributed to crop varieties that are grown on six continents, and she has worked extensively in developing countries to link crop breeding with improved human nutrition and welfare. She's leading a global alliance of research groups focused on "making the consequences of our failures to change visible to us." Systemic risks that originate from shortcomings in the food system are Molly's forte. "Can we, together, find ways of existing that steward our resources adequately?" she wonders (and it's clear that "no" is not an acceptable answer).
