ESG360 – How AgTech is Revolutionising the Food Chain
In this podcast, we explore how factors such as climate change, a population explosion and food security are driving AgTech solutions like insect protein and lab-grown meat.
- Extreme heatwaves and drought are threatening our food systems
- Insect protein is being backed as a sustainable form of plant and animal nutrition that can reduce emissions
- Lab-grown meat is a new frontier that's already available in Singapore and other countries are likely to follow suit
In this episode of ESG360, we explore how factors such as climate change, a population explosion and food security are driving AgTech solutions like insect protein and lab-grown meat. Food and agriculture represents 25% of global greenhouse gas emissions and farming is responsible for about 70% of global water use making innovation in this area critical if the world stands a chance of reaching Net Zero by 2050.
