Want to learn more about the state of research for disruption in the #FoodSystem and #infrastructure after #NuclearWar? Check out my recent talk: https://youtu.be/4NuAGH3TuII

“The #foodsystem is responsible for an estimated 1/3 of all greenhouse gas emissions while the industrial food chain and its ultra-processed foods are deeply dependent on fossil fuels.
Also, fossil fuels allow our food to be grown in far-flung places and wrapped in plastic to sit on shelves for months on end, adding further carbon emissions”.

Africa: Insight to Impact - CGIAR Inaugural Flagship Report for Decision Makers Navigating Food System Science: [IPS] Nairobi -- "To have impact, it was crucial to understand what impact was wanted," CGIAR's Executive Managing Director Dr. Ismahane Elouafi said at the launch of the organization's flagship report, Insight to Impact: A decision-maker's guide to navigating food system science. http://newsfeed.facilit8.network/TK5Hmr #FoodSystem #SustainableAgriculture #ImpactStudy #CGIAR #FoodSecurity

This change has been going on for decades and as we lock ourselves into a farming system based on large scale farming, our agriculture becomes more specialised.

Leaving the #foodsystem more dependent on a few large and specialised farms, rather than many small and diverse farms. [🧵5/7]

Funding stops at #USAID, the largest #donor of international #aid, devastates the global #foodsystem & the #foodsecurity of millions, but also hurts US manufacturers & #farmers supplying food worth $2 billion.

I’m happy to share that I will be part of S+T+ARTS Hungry EcoCities’ 2nd Open Call, working with Protiberia to develop Quiet Storm: Music for Insects, raising awareness on the future of food through art-science experimentation!
Next week I will visit Protiberia in Villamalea, Spain and also meet the Studio Other Spaces team

Retailers hold the key to making sustainable and healthy food choices easier. In a new interview, Mike Barry, co-founder of The Planeatry Alliance, discusses why retailers must integrate sustainability at the basket level and how data and AI can help.

Intertwining physical limitations with human-made limitations of social, political, policy & economic dynamics of the wider #foodsystem resulted in a simplistic narrative that #grasslands are only fit for grazing #livestock, marginalizing their possible contribution to a transition to healthier & more #sustainable societies thru diversified food production and the provision of #nature restoration & environmental goods: https://doi.org/10.1017/S0956793324000219 #grazing
