Here’s a wild stat: nearly one-third of the world’s food production goes to waste each year, a major contributor to the climate crisis. Farmer and UN climate champion Gonzalo Muñoz sheds light on the international negotiations aimed at turning the food system into a climate solution, rather than part of the problem — and shows the progress already underway.(Recorded at TED Countdown Dilemma Series: Food on June 5, 2024)

    Politics and government intervention that is what I heard meaning more control over the people, and guess who will be paying for it? The solution would be educating the youth by getting them to know where food comes from and to start growing gardens and field trips to farms that are using permaculture. etc. Climate is always changing that is a constant variable.

      Its not. Or at least not in its current state but I look forward to the day it does get there. Problem is that a lot of it still tastes like crap or is the same processed junk like chicken nuggets with often worse nutritional value

      As a newbie investor, it’s essential for you to have a mentor to keep you accountable.
      Ruth Ann Tsakonas is my trade analyst, she has guided me to identify key market trends, pinpointed strategic entry points, and provided risk assessments, ensuring my trades decisions align with market dynamics for optimal returns.

      I don’t really blame people who panic. Lack of
      information can be a big hurdle. I’ve been
      making more than $200k passively by just
      investing through an advisor, and I don’t have
      to do much work. Inflation or no inflation, my
      finances remain secure. So I really don’t blame
      people who panic.

    THE CLIMATE-CHANGER GOD-ROCK KNOWS WHEN WHERE AND WHY THE CLIMATE CHANGED
    AND WHEN YOU ACKNOWLEDGE IT ALL QUESTIONS ARE ANSWERED
    THE EARTH HAS TWO MAJOR SEISMIC SHIFTS AND TWO MAJOR 50 YEAR CYCLES
    1-CYCLE HAS THE EARTH CLOSED UP THE TECTONIC PLATES
    1985 TO 2011 FOR A 25 YEAR PEROID EVERY 50 YEARS
    2-CYCLE HAS THE EARTH OPENS UP AND CLOSES UP IN A 25 YEAR PEROID EVERY 50 YEARS

    Plant based diets are the future. Even just reducing beef intake will reduce human impact on the climats. Beef production is the number reason for deforestation. One pound of beef needs almost 2,000 gallons of water.
