For What It’s Earth

Nuts: Superfood, climate problem, or sustainable solution?


Listen Later

Shell we go a little bit nuts together? This food group is having a bit of a *moment*; equally at home in our diets and social media feeds. We're told they're fantastic for our health, but they can also cause environmental damage. It's only natural that Emma and Sophie should investigate.

Plus, squirrel season is in full swing: Many tasty morsels are in season right now in the UK (think hazel nuts, walnuts), and some inedible nuts that still have brilliant natural uses, like horse chestnut (also known as a conker). Yes, there will be foraging tips in this episode.
