It's not GMO but science is involved: the food edited with CRISPR promises to be healthier and longer lasting, and according to its co-inventor it will be on the market within 5 years.
Soon we will be able to say goodbye to #plastic food packaging, which will be replaced by edible and biodegradable films produced from milk. This emerges from research by the United States Department of Agriculture presented at the meeting of the American Chemical Society in Philadelphia. Within three years the first "milk" packaging should already be ready. "The film produced with milk proteins is very effective in blocking oxygen, ensuring better food preservation... Read more
Carrefour has started to look around among its suppliers (651) to identify the "greenest" companies that are ahead in adopting environmental sustainability policies.

The fight against waste in an increasingly crowded world immersed in a dense network of economic exchanges is a fundamental direction. Add to this the shortage of energy resources and the scarcity of food and we will have a future scenario that is truly difficult to face, unless we come up with an important idea, or we decide together to work on a better way of producing, consuming, even eating. . Every year, for one thing, almost a billion and a half is wasted... Read more
There is nothing more devastating than drought for agriculture: hectares and hectares of cultivated land literally go up in smoke due to the prolonged absence of rain: a prototype developed by Edward Linnacre, a student at Swinburne University in Australia, promises to erase this problem in the future. His name is Airdrop. Here's how it works Despite its rather essential design, Airdrop is able to filter hot air from the environment through a turbine, filter it thanks to a complex system of pipes, … Read more
