At the American Cancer Society, we are grateful for partners like Beyond Meat and are proud to be a part of their 2022 ESG report. Do yourself a favor and read through this content, familiarize yourself with the mission of this incredible company and their commitment to changing our world for the better. Maybe think about making a conscious effort, even if just a few times a month, to swap your typical red meat consumption with a plant-based meat product. I've seen firsthand how committed Beyond is to advancing solutions across four global problems - human health, climate change, natural resource conservation and animal welfare. This work is more critical now than ever before. With folks like Ethan Brown, Shira Zackai, Allison Trager and Akerho Oghoghomeh leading the charge, I have no doubt the future is BEYOND bright. We also look forward to understanding in the coming years, how a plant-based diet and plant-based meat alternatives can contribute to cancer prevention. Exciting things to come.
At Beyond, advancing our ESG and sustainability objectives is central to our mission and at the core of our DNA. Our North Star is based on the conviction that embracing plant-based protein more universally can combat climate change and natural resource depletion while positively impacting human health and animal welfare. Our ESG report highlights how we're working to achieve that goal.

Our recently launched ESG feed risk assessment tool, developed in collaboration with World Wildlife Fund (WWF), addresses a key challenge in agricultural sustainability: the current lack of transparency in feed supply chains. By fostering greater transparency, this tool helps companies identify and mitigate possible ESG risks, leading to more ethical and environmentally friendly practices. This represents a significant advancement in responsible sourcing within the animal feed industry, serving as a blueprint for other animal protein sectors to follow. For a deeper dive into how this tool is driving industry-wide accountability, we encourage you to explore the WWF case study below. https://lnkd.in/gu6jXK9t

Start following FAIRR. Leading on nature/animal based investing risks. Isn’t our ag system the most important and foundational infrastructure system we need?

Leading investors are already stepping up to get ahead of risk across land and oceans and seize potential opportunities. With action on #nature becoming a fiduciary responsibility, the briefing pack highlights a range of collaborative and increasingly aligned investor initiatives which are working to accelerate action in this area.

Focused on Financing a Sustainable Food Future, CEO & Food/Climate Entrepreneur, Global Food Systems Speaker: United Nations, Bloomberg, Ameritrade TV, NYSE Podcast Host
I love this sound advice from Jeffrey Harris, former CEO of Plant Power Fast Food. When you participate in impact investing, you are able to see not only a financial return on investing over time, but also the progress and positive change associated with the subject that is meaningful to you. As the saying goes, be the change you want to see in the world and impact investing in food systems transformation is a great way to move the needle on deforestation, human health, healthcare costs, natural resources protection, lowering pandemic risk, animal welfare and food insecurity. #impactinvesting #investing #foodsystemstransformation #change #quote #quoteoftheday #ceo

Thanks to the team at Farmers for Climate Action for sharing this link in light of National Reconciliation week. Farmers for Climate Action started when about 10 farmers signed a public petition seeking acknowledgment of climate change impacting our farms almost 10 years ago, now telling much the same stories and successes we set out to do with the initial Farmer Letter. Here’s to those that saw the change and acted boldly. And in the spirit of Reconciliation Week- Now More Than Ever do we need mob sharing stories as part of these yarns. #climatechange #NRW2024 #reconciliation #change #environment #sustainability
One of FCA's founding farmers, Joshua Gilbert, is a fourth-generation First Nations grazier on Worimi Country, around the mid-north coast of NSW. Joshua is proud of his family farm's history, but still hears stories of Indigenous families receiving less for their livestock than their non-Indigenous counterparts. Indigenous knowledge is rich with insight and a deeply entrenched understanding of the land, and Australian agriculture can only benefit from working hard towards reconciliation through consultation, collaboration and understanding. We at FCA are eager to embark on our reconciliation journey, under the guidance of First Nations farmers and communities, to bring about equality of opportunity in Australian agriculture. Watch Joshua's story below, filmed in 2023 for ABC, and you can read the artice here: https://lnkd.in/gC5-mTvM #NationalReconciliationWeek #NowMoreThanEver #FarmersForClimateAction

We’re pleased to announce our latest research is now available to be viewed online. In this innovative study, funded by Eurogroup for Animals, the HBCL team presents the business case for transporting carcasses instead of live animals from the European Union (EU) to Third Countries. Using advanced modelling, case studies and evidence-based approaches, this ground-breaking research revealed a compelling finding: exporting live animals was nearly 2.5 times more costly, and had nearly six times the CO2 emissions (CO2e) per kilo than transporting carcasses. “As we navigate a changing world and the challenges of creating a sustainable food system for a growing population, these insights shine a light on a path that harmonises economic progress with environmental and ethical considerations. Namely, transitioning from a trade in live animals for slaughter to that of carcasses is better for people, animals and the planet” said Jo White, HBCL Co-Director. Read the full press release here: https://lnkd.in/eDNG2x6d The report can be downloaded from the Eurogroup for Animals website here: https://lnkd.in/e_JA_HGq...

Sheep struggle in the heat and our climate is changing so we need to adapt with it. Working with the Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) and FOCUS GENETICS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, we're looking at how we can create sheep with finer wool (or none at all), a greater tolerance for hot weather and lower methane emissions. What does that mean? Sheep that shed their wool in spring – no need for shearing, crutching or tail docking! As well as increased animal welfare and disease tolerance. The future of agriculture in Aotearoa is important to us – this is one way we're contributing. 👉Read more about the Sheep of the Future programme: https://lnkd.in/gdX6VdCN Pāmu™ and FOCUS GENETICS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP acknowledges the Co-funding of this project by the Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) Sustainable Food and Fibre Futures fund. #SheepOfTheFuture #GeneticResearch #PāmuFarmsofNZ
