The similarities of the names aren't coincidental.

All go back to an interrelated network of organizations, many of which were shaped by Maurice Strong in the '70-'90s. Strong was an oil businessman, New Ager, Rockefeller asset & UN protagonist. #TheGreatReset & its dietary part #TheGreatFoodTransformation are part of his legacy.
Today, the post-Strong Great Transition/Transformation network is being mobilized for the UN #FoodSystems Summit. The aim: to change dietary policies worldwide.
In addition, "vegan tech" (lab-grown foods) has joined the club, $$$-fueled by #SiliconValley investors (& others).
For details on the various actors within this network and their converging motives, check this @aleph2020 page.
It also sheds light on this completely justified reaction of outrage from @via_campesina, condemning the corporate takeover of the UN Food Systems Summit:
It has come to the following: a strategic partnership between the @UN and the transnational corporate elites of Davos' @wef. Maurice Strong would have loved it!
What could go wrong?
The "Big Plan for a Small Planet" (& its zillion versions of public-private partnerships) is ready to take off in 2021.
Get prepared to be Great-Transitioned towards the #Omegapoint of corporate bliss.
BILL GATES, big investor in synthetic meat & in the militant organizations lobbying for its implementation (eg. Good Food Institute) & media hailing its virtues (eg. Guardian), wants to use REGULATION to move ALL rich countries to ... 100% synthetic beef. technologyreview.com/2021/02/14/101…
Here's a thought:
- Gates is a WHO top donor
- WHO is the "anchoring agency" for Action Track 2 on sustainable diets (chaired by EAT's founder) in the upcoming UN Food Systems Summit
- The UN Summit will set the agenda for future dietary policy worldwide aleph-2020.blogspot.com/2020/08/ideolo…
- WHO's Branca (EAT-Lancet member) wants to "reset" the food system & work on the "consumer side"
- EAT's founder & Action Track 2 chair wishes to "to take full advantage of the Summit...to force" EAT's idea of change
- Good Food Institute also involved aleph-2020.blogspot.com/2020/08/ideolo…
If #SDGs are meant to save earth from industrial destruction, why was the ex-CEO of Unilever (producer of ultraprocessed foods) among its designers on the "UN High-Level Panel of eminent persons"? Not to mention sharks like Podesta & Cameron?
And WHY has the @UN signed a strategic partnership, to meet the #SDGs, with the greatest predators of them all: the elites of the corporate system represented by the @wef? Because they expect that the world's largest polluters can be "converted"? Or...🤔
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'
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.
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. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…
