Every week, I say how excited I am about the guest. And I mean it every week but maybe I mean it just a little bit more this week - Melina Shannon-DiPietro is the Executive Director of MAD.
MAD was started by Rene Redzepi of restaurant noma in 2011 to empower the global hospitality industry to create sustainable change and transform food systems for the future. However, Melina’s relationship with the food and environment space actually starts prior to that when she was the co-founder and executive director of the Yale Sustainable Food Project.
She’s a true pioneer when it comes to exploring the relationship people have with both the planet and the food they eat. This episode covers a lot of ground from the MAD Academy that trains hospitality industry professionals in leadership and environmental sustainability to MAD’s foraging app and how we can create a more diverse and inclusive conversation around environmental responsibility and food.
