Webinar Description: Protein is fundamental to human nutrition. At the same time, protein provision – whether of plant or animal origin - contributes a large fraction of the overall resource demands and environmental pressures associated with human diets.  Looking forward, sustainability must be at the centre of how we think about and seek to manage protein production and consumption, balancing what will often be interconnected nutrition, health, environmental quality, and other sustainability objectives. This presentation will bring a systems-level perspective to describing the recent history, status quo and potential futures for sustainable plant and animal protein production in Canada, highlighting opportunities, constraints, and trade-offs.
