RE: Feeding the Masses... For Free!

in #food8 years ago (edited)

That's awesome, man! :) Change starts from within and it's always great to see people who are not only talking the talk but walking the walk. I read some articles recently about a restaurant in India that placed a couple of refrigerators outside their establishment and filled them with paper bags of leftover food for the homeless to take. One of my goals is to open a plant-based restaurant in the future with an emphasis on solar cooking, and I'd like to adopt this same sort of practice. Sustainability doesn't end with where our food comes from but where it's going, too.

Yeah, animal agriculture is one of the worst (if not the worst) culprits of environmental degradation and destruction. Cowspiracy is a wonderful documentary film that highlighted this key point. The way I see it, if it weren't for the billions of dollars in government subsidies that are given to the meat, dairy, and egg industries in the U.S. (maybe in the UK and other countries, too, I'm not sure), this wouldn't be as big of a problem as it is today. It'd be great to have those subsidies abolished and watch the rise of entrepreneurial advancements in cultured meat (such as SuperMeat) become widely adopted in the marketplace.
