Alexandra Kjeld

Alexandra has many years of experience in a so-called life-cycle analysis in which the environmental impacts of a product or service are evaluated throughout their lifecycle. This analysis encompasses the environmental impacts of production and processing of resources, their transportation, operation or usage and finally their disposal or recycling.

Alexandra will cover the existing knowledge about the environmental impacts of different diets, especially in regards to greenhouse gasses or the carbon footprint of different foods.

Guðrún Sóley

Grænkerakrásir Guðrúnar Sóleyjar is the first book of the media person and gourmet Guðrún Sóley Gestsdóttir. The recipes are diverse, delicious and all-vegan. Guðrún will teach us how to make two simple courses from the book along with educating us about its ingredients, which are of course Icelandic.

The event will be on the ground floor. Automatic opening (electric button) at the entrance of the building.
