"investors in the sector are now admitting they got several things wrong, incl. overestimating consumer demand for alternative meat [..] The lack of a clear route to profitability for the business in the short term is keeping investors away, with gross margins deeply negative"

Ordinary trees without added genes already store carbon. “There’s 80k species of trees in the world. Maybe you don’t have to #CRISPR them,” said McMahon, of the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute. “Maybe just find the ones that actually grow fast & store carbon a long time”

Satisfaction is characterized by inner peace. It arises from generosity, honesty and what I call ethical conduct, a way of behaving that respects others’ right to be happy.

The #righttofood matters! As Australia gets ready to vote, we call upon candidates and sitting MP's to pledge healthy food access for all. With rates of #FoodInsecurity rising following COVID and environmental events, the time to act is now!
