La production de nourriture est à l’origine d’un quart des émissions de CO2 dans le monde. Le projet Open Food Facts permet de mieux choisir les produits alimentaires grâce à un Eco-Score présent sur les emballages.

Food production creates a quarter of global carbon emissions. Open Food Facts want to compute the environmental impact of millions of food products across Europe, and help consumers and producers take action to reduce their carbon footprint. By putting an Eco-Score on every label we can make smarter choices about the food we eat.

Normative want to help measure what matters in a sustainable world. Their automated carbon reporting identifies how businesses can reduce their environmental impact.

For years we’ve shaped our agriculture for high yields and food security. Climate Farmers think it’s time to reward a different and very important goal: soil health. By helping farmers measure their ecosystem health and diversity, their goal is to store even more carbon in the ground.

Events in the Atlantic Gulf Stream have a far-reaching impact on global weather systems. Understanding them is key to predicting global carbon emissions. Saildrone create and deploy uncrewed, wind and solar powered ocean vehicles to report this data in real time in one of Earth’s harshest ocean environments. Recorded remotely in March 2021.

For billions of years natural habitats have thrived by producing vast quantities of materials for growth without creating landfill or waste. Materiom have been taking notes. By turning the abundance of materials around us into the building blocks for new growth — and sharing that data open-source — they are helping us rethink our relationship with waste.

The sub-Arctic area stretching across Canada, Scandinavia and Russia stores as much carbon in its soil as the Amazon rainforest. In this episode Hannah Fry meets Snowchange Cooperative to understand how their work rewilding this habitat will help keep that carbon in the ground — and help ensure bio-security for the whole planet.
