Why aren’t restaurants part of the climate solution? This question inspired chef Anthony Myint to go from opening buzzy pop-ups to pushing for a shift to regenerative farming practices in the food system. He explains how it didn’t go the way he expected at first — and how restaurants are now teaming up with farmers and eaters alike to restore the climate while serving up delicious food. (Recorded at TED Countdown 2024 Dilemma Series on June 6, 2024 )

Things I’ve been wondering about;
Where do they find the nutrients to feed the cultured beef~chicken what have you?
What is the ratio between blowdown and feedstock?
Look I am all in on keeping Earth 100% it just seem like it is being gamed by bad actors.

I’m not sure if this answers your question, but with regenerative farming, when it comes to grazing animals, the animals aren’t “fed” at all. They eat and drink off the land as nature has intended. Regenerative methods memic nature; that’s how they repair the soil. Look into Alan Savory and the Savory Institute to learn more. Alan Savory did a Ted talk that is essential viewing for understanding the problems with our agricultural practices.

Soviet like propaganda. Tell your family why they should pay more taxes. We have had clean energy for 100 years. The government takes ownership of all the patents. They just want to tax the public for a problem already solved.

Excellent initiative. Our food system is broken – farmers live close to bankruptcy while food suppliers & manufacturers earn billions in profits. Farmers may not be in a financial position to transition even if they wanted to. Initiatives like this helps.
If 75 – 80 % of people will live in cities by 2050 cities need to become more food secure via green roofs, rooftop farms, community gardens etc. Also refer urban permaculture & edenicity.

We start working toward a healthy climate when mega-corporations aren’t poisoning our planet for profit. Don’t gaslight regular folks into thinking they’re the problem.

What a great concept! If we’re going to move the needle on climate change, we need absolutely everyone to get involved. I’ve been learning more about how impactful soil health can be in sequestering CO2, but didn’t know how to take action

Love this. “Collective Regeneration” is going to be my new go-to phrase when talking about solutions to the destruction of the topsoil (which, btw, is the actual culrpit concerning the climate crisis, not the emissions) . 👏 👏 👏
