There might be hope for the world after all.
It's the Plantbased Business Hour
with Elysabeth
Alfano.
Tune in to learn how mushrooms
can be used to create eco-friendly packaging materials, foam
leather, and whole cuts of meat.
Could leaning into biology create
solutions to the world's largest environmental
problems?
We discuss:
-Mycellium as the original
internet. (Yes, you'll want to hear this.)
-Mushroom are not plants or
animals
-Mushrooms are naturally
repellent and strong, able to withstand and create pressure, thus
making them building blocks
-Mushrooms as scaffolding for
cellular agriculture
-Solid State
Fermentation
-The efficiency of vertical
farming of mushrooms for 'meat' as compared to animal
agriculture.
-MyBacon, the Atlast Food Co's
company MyEats produces the first MyBacon products out this
year.
