28. How can Europe's industrial strategy integrate agricultural innovation and sustainability? ft. David Zilberman
Description
Reaching Europe’s sustainability and industrial goals requires a stronger bioeconomy. Agriculture is evolving beyond food production, contributing to biofuels, pharmaceuticals, and materials that could replace traditional industrial inputs like cement. However, Europe’s strict regulations, particularly on GMOs, are seen as barriers to innovation. How can Europe remain competitive while maintaining strict environmental regulations?
Our host, Tom Parker, is joined by David Zilbermann, Professor at the University of California, Berkeley, to explore these challenges and opportunities. They discuss the role of genetic engineering in European agriculture and the need for regulatory reform to balance risk with innovation.
