Sounds spectacular. 3 million acres which could be rewilded.
As someone who loves great french fries but hates climate change and chronic disease, I'm thrilled to join Zero Acre Farms as the Head of Business Development and Strategic Partnerships! I'm so excited to have the opportunity to partner with forward-thinking companies that are hungry to improve what we eat. Zero Acre's mission is to give the world an oil change. What we eat is so important for our health and the health of our planet's ecosystems. However, right now we get an average of nearly 20% of our calories from unhealthy vegetable oil. That same vegetable oil is also a leading driver of deforestation, which accelerates climate change. Instead of deforestation, Zero Acre uses fermentation to produce healthier, higher-performing, more sustainable cooking oil. If we could replace just 5% of the vegetable oil in the US with Zero Acre's oil, every year we could save 3.1 million acres of land (nearly the size of Connecticut), conserve 56.9 billion gallons of fresh water (more than 86,000 Olympic-sized swimming pools), and avoid 3.6 million tons of CO2-eq (equivalent to taking more than 780,000 passenger cars off the road).
