‼️Over 600 stakeholders have now united against the "Veggie Burger Ban"

From NGO's to companies, the message to the EU institutions is clear: consumers are not confused and we don't need costly restrictions that will harm consumers, businesses, and the shift to sustainable foods.

Let's be clear: government-controlled space lasers controlling our weather aren't real. But could solar geoengineering be a solution for managing dangerous climate change?

What do you know about Solar Radiation Management (SRM)?

The EAT-Lancet report shook things up in 2019 by putting food systems at the heart of climate and health. Now it’s back. The 2025 update sharpens the science, adjusts where needed, and adds a crucial layer: social justice.

Our breakdown of the report. 👇
EAT-Lancet 2025: solid science, but will we bite?
“Scientists say we need to eat less meat!” We’ve all seen headlines like this over the years. And if you saw one recently, it was likely based on the 2025 EAT-Lancet report.

The EU Parliament will vote tomorrow on whether it should be illegal to call this plant-based burger a 'burger.'

This is madness. Everyone can tell the difference between a plant-based burger and a meat one.

European consumers can tell the difference between meat & plant-based foods.

Yet members of the EU Parliament will vote on whether to ban the use of terms like sausage or burger for plant-based foods?

The EU wants to ban words like “burger” + “sausage” from plant-based foods. So get ready for “protein tubes” + “alternative discs.” 🙃 Nobody’s confused — except Brussels. Consumers + the planet deserve better. #NoConfusion

Will the EU now ban 'sausage' and 'burger' from plant-based alternatives?

Next week the European Parliament will vote on whether to ban the use of terms like “burger,” “sausage,” and “steak” for plant-based foods.

This would be nothing short of government engaging in cartel behaviour with the meat industry.

The Belgian government, despite reversing their disastrous nuclear phase-out law, is allowing ENGIE to shutdown this vital clean energy infrastructure!

I really enjoy the wide-ranging (and often provocative) conversations Mark Lynas has on his @weplanetint.bsky.social podcast.

So I was very happy to join him again to talk more about climate change and what we do to fix it.
