Journalist and producer Melanie Saltzman takes us behind-the-scenes of her Pulitzer Center supported project, PBS NewsHour Weekend's "Future of Food" series. The threats of a growing population, climate change, poverty, and conflict mean the world's food supply is under pressure like never before—and many experts agree the way we produce food is not sustainable. Saltzman's multi-part international series examines a central question: Can we create a nutritious and affordable food system in a way that's green and fair?
