the Department of Environmental Health Sciences at the Johns Hopkins
Bloomberg School of Public Health with joint appointments as Professor of

Director of the Johns Hopkins Center for a Livable Future, which supports
research and develops policies related to the public health impacts of
industrial food animal production, improving food security, and adopting
healthier diets.

*Dr. Lawrence will provide an in depth look at the following:*

    - US meat consumption and the adverse effects this has on our health,
      the health of our environment, and the sustainability of a diverse food
      system.
      - The health impacts of a high meat diet and how this leads to the
      displacement from a diet of adequate quantities of whole grains, fruits,
      and vegetables.
      - Health hazards that have been introduced in the meat due to the
      industrialization of production methods for raising animals for food.
