More Than Meats The Eye: A Talk and Q&A with Björn Ólafsson
📅 Tuesday 18 November, 18:00–19:30
📍 UPF Campus Ciutadella (room 13.001)
👥 Open to everyone!
🌐 Talk and Q&A in English
Join us for a conversation with Björn Ólafsson, a science writer and data journalist who explores the environmental footprint of the meat industry, the rise of alternative proteins, and the ethics of our food systems.
Through his work and newsletter More Than Meats the Eye, Björn combines data and storytelling to understand how we can reduce animal suffering and build a more compassionate world.
He'll share insights from his research, reflect on how students from different backgrounds can contribute to animal welfare, and answer your questions in an open Q&A and social session afterwards.
Whether you’re interested in data, ethics, sustainability, or animal advocacy, this is a great chance to explore one of the most impactful global issues — and meet others who care about making a difference.
