#Food is highly personal and deeply cultural. Kudos to #Denmark for trying to shift diets to more #plantbased. It won’t be easy but it’s one of the best actions for #climate and #nature. For the majority who will probably still want #meat and #dairy, cultured / cellular #protein and precision fermented protein will need to take up the slack. How is it in your country?

I know John Elkington will talk about playing with dolphins as well as tickling sharks, and I expect I will also (besides thriving and a sprinkling of poetry) talk about my recent work on the 10x10x10 planet tech revolution - 10 technologies with factor 10 scaling that can set us on a regenerative pathway in 10 years Ioana Marin

The point a lot of people don’t get about climate change is that it means more weather extremes. In the Balkans over the past week, there has been a heat wave, causing electricity blackouts in Albania, Bosnia, Montenegro and Croatia, due to a surge in demand for air conditioning. Then, last night, in Pristina, the capital city of Kosovo, there were floods and at our cabin in the mountains of Rugova (near Peja), this happened - a violent hail storm. Let’s start calling it what it is: climate extremes.- with Indira Kartallozi

🐝 So happy to see this honeybee swarm in our beech hedge. Swarming is a natural process. It is the colony ensuring its continuity by the old queen leaving with some of the bees. They leave their hive and find somewhere to hang in a cluster until the scout bees decide on their new home. I wish them all the best in their search 💚
