    EP102: Why eco-efficiency is a myth and the Business of Less - Dr. Roland Geyer

    For the last thirty years, corporate sustainability has meant the pursuit of ‘eco-efficiency’ and ‘win-win’ opportunities. But what if we have it all wrong — what if these are just myths that give us the illusion of progress, while the data suggests otherwise?

    Dr. Roland Geyer joins us to explore the hard truths, his groundbreaking research, and a new paradigm designed to (finally) reconcile business and the environment.

    EP101: Clean meat and the second domestication - The Better Meat Co

    EP101: Clean meat and the second domestication - The Better Meat Co

    Most plant-based meats are made with protein from soy, wheat or peas. The ingredients work, but the process of growing and harvesting the crop, milling it into a powder and isolating it to increase the protein content is time consuming, and making it mimic the texture of animal meat has been a big challenge.

    Enter Better Meat Co - the startup developing a new type of plant-based superfood that has more nutrition, meat-like texture, and efficiency than anything used in the industry today.
