As I reflect on learnings from the first few days of the Business Sustainability Management course, one of my key reflections is what can I start doing differently to make more conscious choices, and raise awareness to encourage others to do the same. Fresh water demands is a significant system pressure causing enormous impact on the planet's ability to sustain humanity. A simple, yet powerful read on the volume of water required to produce common food items we all consume. On top of the list is Chocolate requiring 17K litres for 1 kg of chocolate, followed by Beef (not so surprisingly). Many fruits and vegetables are also on the bottom of the list. Food for thought - literally. I hope this encourages you to make a more conscious choice next time you are in the supermarket. https://lnkd.in/dfzAruCD

The following diagram shows how beef is a major contributor to a retailer's carbon footprint and suggests that retailers should take steps to reduce this impact. However, retailers fail to mention beef in their sustainability reports and instead highlight their efforts to make seafood sustainable. This is even though beef has a more negative impact on the environment. Bion is aligning the interests of stakeholders to produce "Impact Beef," a product that delivers the taste and texture consumers expect while being truly sustainable. (Think plant-based protein that tastes good and is not processed) Bion’s purpose is to lower the carbon footprint of stuff that matters. Our mission is to dramatically lower the carbon footprint of beef, negate the environmental impact of cattle feeding, and make more money for all stakeholders.
