S3E4: The Environmental Cost of War & Food Security ft. Samer El Khoury

What happens to our food, water, and land when war becomes a constant reality?

In this episode of Beirut Talks, environmental activist and researcher Samer El Khoury joins us to discuss the hidden, devastating environmental impacts of the ongoing conflict in Lebanon. We explore the systematic targeting of agriculture in the South, from olive groves to beekeeping, and how these attacks are designed to sever people from their land and history.

Samer also unpacks the critical issue of food security during wartime, the lack of agricultural governance, and the terrifying long-term effects of chemicals like glyphosate on our soil and health.
