Food is a $1 trillion industry. Of the 50 million square kilometres of our Earth dedicated to our food, 80% of this available land is dedicated to meat production. And the amount of water needed to produce 1 kg of protein – or 12 sirloin steaks – is equivalent to taking a six-hour shower.
This makes meat production hugely resource intensive. If we’re to reach climate targets, we need to act today to dramatically shift and re-establish food supply chains.
CPI in Teesside, UK, is supporting the development of an alternative protein market. Kris Wadrop is the General Manager of Commercial Operations at CPI. In this video he explores 5 types of alternative protein that are providing sustainable alternatives to traditional mass meat production:
1. Plant-based meat
2. Alternative livestock feed
3. Alternative animal proteins
4. Engineered animal proteins
5. Cultured meat
Alternative proteins are a healthy option for both personal and planetary health. It takes 3.5% of a population to drive a societal change – could that be you?
