To sum up: @BorisJohnson thinks that the poor should eat less meat and drink less milk. Stuff them with protein extract/oil/starch mixtures instead; microsize agriculture, while we're at it. What could go wrong? dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9…
"It suggests families should move away from meat and dairy, helping to reduce livestock numbers, by choosing 'plant-based options' – and one day even meat grown in a laboratory."

Enjoy your meal, Britain!
The idea was already "on the table" in 1969. A Rockefeller commission urging for a dietary shift 'away from consumption of animal livestock towards vegetables and synthetic meats' and 'a closed system of agriculture - food from factories'

Here we are!

Requiring an "international economic order, capable of dealing with natural resources & environmental conditions on a world scale", to be implemented by a body with "assigned central responsibility" & serving as a "lobby for the future" 🤔

Did I say #No to the #DavosAgenda yet?

I applaud the #EUCancerPlan *BUT* caution: putting #meat 🥩 (a nourishing, evolutionary food) in the same box as 🚬 to solve a contemporary health challenge, would be basing policy on assumptions rather than robust data.

#FollowTheScience yes, but not just part of it!

1/ Granted, some studies have pointed to ASSOCIATIONS of HIGH intake of red & processed meats with (slightly!) increased colorectal cancer incidence. Also, @WHO/IARC is often mentioned in support (usually hyperbolically so).

But, let’s have a closer look at all this! 🔍
2/ First, meat being “associated” with cancer is very different from stating that meat CAUSES cancer.

Unwarranted use of causal language is widespread in nutritional sciences, posing a systemic problem & undermining credibility.

Not "processed", but "ultraprocessed". Very different thing.

Nobody argues that processing is bad, on the contrary - it's pretty useful. The fact is that these "planty meats" are concoctions of protein extracts, refined oils, starches, additives, etc. No "plants" to be seen.
Ultra-processed foods are typically generated by transnational corporations 'to create branded, convenient (durable, ready-to-consume), attractive (hyper-palatable) and highly profitable (low-cost ingredients) food products often designed to displace all other food groups'

Calls for a 50-% reduction of beef and lamb consumption by 2030 and a phasing out (!!) of by 2050 in the UK FIRES report, written by a team from six British universities and funded (£5m) by the UK government to meet its legal 'net-zero' target by 2050.

Shadow banking is basically high-level financial gambling.

QUESTION: what is the world's largest shadow bank doing on the advisory board of #EAT - the foundation that wants to put the entire world on its #PlanetaryHealthDiet via a #DavosAgenda-backed #GreatFoodTransformation?

How to deal with ecosystems? Science can't really do that, we need 🦄🌈. Dixit Speth, founder of @WRI, and fellow of the @TellusInstitute. As a reminder, that's were the #GreatTransition yada yada comes from. Close to the Lindisfarne Association's New Agers too.
This is from Tellus' Great Transition Initiative, for instance, where we find Speth among the members.

"Action track 2" of the UN Food Systems Summit will be:
-Chaired by EAT's founder
-Have WHO as anchoring agency
-Have an "innovation pillar" led by the Good Food Institute (a lobby group for vegan lab-foods)

Now imagine the outcome of this triumvirate!🤔
gfi.org/blog-2020-top-…
Background here: aleph-2020.blogspot.com/2020/08/ideolo…
What is the GFI? An extremely well-funded lobby platform, representing producers of lab-generated foods that are meant to take over "outdated" animal foods.
