Forget the peanut butter, this is actually worth spreading
Are you a bit baffled by the fact that we have enough food to feed all the world's population and yet a billiion of us are going to bed hungry? We know the system is broken, but why, how, and what can we do to attempt to mend it? The complexity of the issues can be enough to make your head throb, so we thought it was about time we created a little video that explained it all and hopefully makes you smile.
This video is for anyone that wants to understand what this term 'broken food system' really means and also what transformation is already underway to grow a better food future for us all.
The end of the video asks you a question... Let us know your answer by posting below.

I decided to use some colourful and fun animation with some funky riffs to get people thinking the issues without it being too yawn-inducing!
