It was a great pleasure to be joined by Patrick Holden for a conversation exploring the challenges and paths to creating food and farming systems that work in closer harmony with nature.Patrick is the founder and CEO of 'The Sustainable Food Trust' and he has a great range of insights to offer around this topic.We discuss what our diets would need to look like if we were to achieve a transition to sustainable and regenerative farming across the whole of the UK, along with the problem of dishonest pricing within our food system.We also touch on why Patrick is optimistic that change is possible due to a trend of more and more people taking an interest in the story of their food.Learn more about The Sustainable Food Trust here: https://sustainablefoodtrust.org/See the video version of this episode along with additional references mentioned here: https://www.wearecarbon.earth/patrick-holden-sustainable-food-trust----------------------More Formats from We Are Carbon: [Shorter Video Format] - From Healthy Soil Comes Healthy Food.

Kaffee oder Müsli - zwei so alltägliche wie scheinbar einfache Produkte. Wer aber von der Kaffeepflanze bis zur Tasse oder vom Haferbauern bis zum Birchermüsli alles nachhaltig gestalten will, trifft auf die absurdesten Herausforderungen. In dieser Folge hörst Du, wie Du Lieferketten ganzheitlich transformieren kannst. ✅ So verkürzt Du die globale Logistik. ✅ So wirkst Du partnerschaftlich auf soziale Nachhaltigkeit ein. ✅ Das braucht es für eine regenerative Landwirtschaft bei Deinen Lieferanten. Meine zwei Podcast-Gäste dieser Folge - Philipp und Sabine - berichten allerlei Anekdoten aus ihren nachhaltigen Unternehmen. Warum z.B. ging der Decaf-Kaffee der Kaffeemacher ursprünglich von Brasilien erst nach Kanada, um entkoffeiniert zu werden, bevor er in Wien geröstet wurde? Wieso konnte Sabine für das Birchermüsli von Regionique zunächst keine getrockneten Erdbeeren aus Deutschland beziehen? Besonders spannend: Philipp und Sabine erzählen auch, wie sich der Aufwand für mehr Nachhaltigkeit im Preis niederschlägt und warum es sich für beide Unternehmen trotzdem rechnet. Beide geben transparente Einblicke in ihre Nachhaltigkeitsstrategie und die Grundlagenarbeit, die es braucht, um Alltagsprodukte nachhaltig anbieten zu können. ⏰ Agenda (00:03:39) Darum gibt es bis 2050 fast keinen Kaffee mehr. (00:07:00) Darum reist Müsli 40.000km um die Welt. (00:13:56) Logistik, Prozesse oder Anbau? Den Kaffee-Footprint senken. (00:20:54) Müslierdbeeren aus China? Globale Logistik schrumpfen. (00:27:00) So werden Lieferanten regenerativ. (00:29:44) Postkoloniale Fettnäpfchen & Armut vs Dekarbonisierung. (00:31:13) Wenn Logistik den nachhaltigen Anbau negiert. (00:39:04) Oft ungesehen: soziale Nachhaltigkeit in Deutschland. (00:45:01) Den Aufpreis für Nachhaltigkeit wieder reinholen. (00:57:26) Das braucht man als Nachhaltigkeitsmanager*in, um loszulegen. Philipp Schallberger ist Managing Director bei Die Kaffeemacher GmbH. Das Schweizer Unternehmen vertreibt Spezialitätenkaffee, führt eigene Cafés, bildet Baristas aus, berät Supermärkte und betreibt den größten, deutschsprachigen Youtube-Channel zum Thema Kaffee. Das Team arbeitet ständig daran Hebel, für mehr Nachhaltigkeit zu finden.

In this simple series episode, the common nutrition struggle targeted is a lack of foot trust. Examples include a lack of trust with indulgences, social meals, portion sizes, or self-regulated eating. You might (or might not) realise the effect on your life. Perhaps you're missing out on things because the lack of trust you have in yourself with food is holding you back. This episode covers the main, generic go-to "thing" you want to have in place when it comes to addressing these food trust issues. 

In dieser Folge verrät Dir der Pionier und Unternehmer Jan Bredack seine Strategie und die Learnings, die Veganz zum innovativsten FoodTech Unternehmen Deutschlands gemacht haben. ✅ Darum ist vegan nicht automatisch nachhaltig. ✅ So entstehen durch die ganze Lieferkette hinweg nachhaltige Produkte. ✅ Diesen Unterschied macht sein preisgekröntes Scoring. ✅ So gewinnst Du mit maximaler Transparenz das Vertrauen Deiner Kund*innen und entscheidest die wenigen Sekunden vor dem Supermarktregal für Dich. Als Sustainability Professional weißt Du: Nachhaltigkeit ist hochkomplex. Und Nachhaltigkeit richtig zu kommunizieren, extrem anspruchsvoll. Die Krux: Verbraucher*innen fordern zwar von Unternehmen Nachhaltigkeit, berücksichtigen diese aber selten - nur zu 3% - als Kaufkriterium. ❓ Wie schaffst Du es also nicht nur Deine Produkte nachhaltiger zu entwickeln, sondern dann auch die Konsument*innen mit auf die Reise zu nehmen? Eine großartige Podcast-Folge für alle, die gerade dabei sind nachhaltige Produkte zu entwickeln, mit Siegeln und Zertifizierungen Transparenz herstellen wollen und sich dabei trauen, Konsument*innen aufzuklären und in der Kommunikation mitzunehmen. ⏱️ Agenda: (00:02:45) - Vom Sales Executive bei Daimler zum Veganz Gründer.

In this interview with Moira Dean, Professor in consumer psychology and food security at Queens University in Belfast, Northern Ireland (UK) we talk about her research into consumer food choices, food safety, food fraud, risk perceptions, and food supply chain management and food labeling. Consumers developed different food habits during the pandemic and lockdowns. We talk about the “head, heart, and hands” or the perceptions, attitudes, and behaviors of consumers and producers along the food supply chain to explore food security challenges and create trust in food. She explores the challenges in global food integrity and how the world's growing population will get food in a sustainable, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly way. In the interview, we cover the 2020 Deloitte survey into consumer attitudes on ethical and environmentally produced food. How can labeling products enlarge the trust of consumers? What is the role of all players in the food production chain, the farmers, food producers, and retail?

In this episode of 3PL Live host, Jeremy Thone speaks with Rak-Joon Choi, VP of Business Development at Torqata, an analytics arm of American Tire Distributors (ATD). Choi built blockchain products for IBM called Food Trust, which helped with food recalls from Salmonella or removed bad lots of products. Recalls would take weeks before Blockchain; now, it's done instantly with products like IBM Food Trust. Choi is now working on using Blockchain in the Supply Chain with ATD. The goal is to build a Blockchain to ingest data from multiple sources in the industry to provide analytics for the entire tire ecosystem. We hope you enjoy this episode. 3PL Live

Patrick Holden is the Founding Director and Chief Executive of the Sustainable Food Trust.After studying biodynamic agriculture at Emerson College, he established a mixed community farm in Wales in 1973, producing at various times: wheat for flour production sold locally, carrots and milk from an 85 cow Ayrshire dairy herd, now made into a single farm cheddar style cheese.He was the founding chairman of British Organic Farmers in 1982, before joining the Soil Association, where he worked for nearly 20 years and during which time the organisation led the development of organic standards and the market for organic foods.His advocacy for a major global transition to more sustainable food systems now entails international travel and regular broadcasts and talks at public events.He is Patron of the UK Biodynamic Association and was awarded the CBE for services to organic farming in 2005.Patrick is passionate about the application of Nature's principles of Harmony to food and farming, which is explored in the SFT's latest initiative, The Harmony Project.In this episode, Patrick talks about the work of the Sustainable Food Trust in building a commons-based trust network which can co-create a global farm metric to assess farms around the world for their environmental impact in all ways.  With this, farms can really begin to assess their own impact, and political institutions across the world can begin to rewards farms and farmers for restoring our land to the extraordinary fertility and abundance that we used to take for granted.  Links Sustainable Food Trust https://sustainablefoodtrust.org/Patrick's Farm: https://holdenfarmdairy.co.uk/Patrick's Farm on social media:  https://www.instagram.com/hafodcheese/https://www.facebook.com/Holden-Farm-Dairy-100227754976198/https://twitter.com/hafodcheese

Genetic Engineering and Society Center GES Colloquium - Tuesdays 12-1PM (via Zoom) NC State University | http://go.ncsu.edu/ges-colloquium GES Mediasite - See videos, full abstracts, speaker bios, and slides https://go.ncsu.edu/ges-mediasite Twitter - https://twitter.com/GESCenterNCSU Recent gene-editing technologies are heralded by proponents as a revolution for developing gene-edited foods (GEFs) while critics demand increased governance and scrutiny of potential societal impacts. Like other food and agriculture technologies, realizing GEF’s potential will depend on whether the public accepts it. Proponents want to ensure that GEF avoid the intense public controversy that GMOs faced, which they argue resulted in ‘burdensome’ regulations, trade restrictions, limited international production and trade of GMOs, and diminished opportunity to realize the benefits of GMOs. This history also uncovered that efforts aimed at educating the public about the science of food technologies does not necessarily diminish skepticism or mistrust. Instead, trust in GEF will be informed by factors that extend beyond technical risks and benefits where many proponents now acknowledge the importance of trust and the limitations of the information deficit model. Thus, proponents see an opportunity to shift priorities away from the obstinate risk and safety debates of the GMO era, and instead focus efforts to garner social license through alternative means to establish public trust and acceptance. However, consumer and environmental advocacy groups argue that GEF poses significant public acceptance challenges due to its association with GMOs, scientific complexity, and social, environmental, and ethical concerns. US government agencies including the USDA, FDA, and others are also reviewing and revising policy relevant to safety and labeling of GEF products. As this area continues to grow in attention, and more products arrive to market, proponents and critics will contend with one another to shape the future of the technology. Thus, early messaging about GEF represents a transformative symbolic and politicized locus where message attributes serve ideological mechanisms created by stakeholders in competition. The prioritized communication from proponents and critics may well be the mechanism that drives how GEF will come to be understood by the larger citizenry and will influence how it will be evaluated and governed. This presentation reviews recent data across two studies (still in review) in this domain. The first study reports findings from qualitative interviews and provides a typology of discordant priorities from proponents and critics related to trust and acceptance of GEFs. The second study is a content analysis that identifies and compares how media messages portray potential risks and benefits and regulation of GEFs across the US and EU. Together, these studies highlight contemporary shifts in proponent approaches to cultivating public trust, and acceptance of products in the commercial marketplace. Speaker Bio Dr. Christopher Cummings’ work focuses on advancing public engagement with science, developing risk communication theory, and improving public health decision making across the life span. An experienced social scientist and communication campaign scholar, Dr. Cummings uses a variety of quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods, and his work has been featured in more than 40 applied science and health venues, including the Journal of Risk Research; Regulation and Governance; Nanotoxicology; PLOS One; Science, Technology, & Human Values; and Climate Research, among others. Outside of academia, Dr. Cummings also consults with multiple government agencies across the Asia-Pacific on health risk communication issues, including dengue fever surveillance and response (Sri Lanka and Singapore), obesity and nutrition access (New Zealand), vaccine communication (Singapore, Australia, and United States), and public engagement with nanotechnology, synthetic biology, and geoengineering (Australia, United States, and Singapore). He also consults privately with various Fortune 500 companies on leadership training, strategic planning, and risk communication initiatives.

Gary Storr, General Manager of Trust Your Supplier by ChainYard, explained to us some of the challenges that the supplier information management industry is facing with disparate sources of information and the role blockchain can help to mitigate them. In this podcast you will hear how Trust Your Supplier creates a trusted source of supplier information and digital identity that simplifies and accelerates supplier onboarding, lifecycle management and the seamless exchange of information.   What is blockchain? For Gary the best way to explain what is blockchain is what it isn’t. Blockchain is not a cryptocurrency, it’s a technology. It isn’t a programming language. Blockchain is a ledger that is organised in a sequence of blocks that are chained together. It is  distributed and it’s immutable. Blockchain is highly secure and decentralised, thus allowing for a multitude of participants to store information on the blockchain within the ledger. Security is assured by encryption and hashing technology making it impenetrable from current day hacking.   What is ChainYard? ChainYard is a subsidiary of IT People Company, founded by Sai Nidamarty, its CEO. IT People Company is essentially an IT staffing business that was started in 1999. IBM is a close partner to IT People Company, so when Sai noticed that blockchain was taking off he decided to spun off a new organisation called ChainYard with the intent for it to be a service organisation providing IT consulting services in and around blockchain. Within a few years of launching ChainYard, Sai recognised there was an opportunity to create commercial applications on blockchain to address serious needs within the enterprise, such as Trust Your Supplier. ChainYard is now a 5 years old organisation with 80 staff providing blockchain services and products.   Challenges of the supplier information management industry Supplier information management is about getting information on a supplier. It is essentially an identity question which blockchain is particularly good at with regards to establishing an identity and to protecting it. Traditional enterprises have traditional systems where identities are very segmented. It isn’t unusual for large supplier to have hundreds of identities within the system architecture. This is highly unmanageable. Systems could be storing, for a single identity, multiple versions of the truth for a contact with varying degrees of accuracy. Questions regarding data privacy are another issue. Coming out of an enterprise and looking at the market a supplier would want to have a single identity as it deals with a number of customers. Similarly to a driver’s license or to a passport you want a single identity to be used across the value chain. Consequently, there is an opportunity for efficiency, for speed, for reduction of cost, for reduction of risk and for compliance.   Trust Your Supplier (TYP) IBM, a partner of ChainYard, recognised that there were some pain points within its supplier information. Both IBM and ChainYard expressed the desire to leverage their respective blockchain expertise to tackle those challenges. Trust Your Supplier was thus born to tackle not just IBM’s supplier identity issues, its supplier qualification and lifecycle management issues but also those of enterprises across industries in a decentralised manner. Within its capacity as a partner IBM teams from TradeLens and Food Trust have contributed to the expertise and development of Trust Your Supplier. With Trust Your Supplier, every supplier is provided with an identity on a blockchain platform. Provide them with easy tools and applications for them to access and process that identity in a meaningful way. It allows organisation to discover, identify, qualify, on board and manage relationships with suppliers in a decentralised manner with a single version of the truth. Trust Your Supplier application is in production for the last 18 mon...

In the past few weeks, the resilience and agility of the food and drink industry has touched people everywhere. Those working across the industry around the globe are rightly recognised as the ‘hidden heroes’ in the battle against COVID-19.  At the same time, the connections between health, nutrition and diet are rarely out of the media spotlight currently with public health voices joining industry providing advice on nutrition, key vitamins and the role of supplements in maintaining general health and immunity during these unprecedented times. The food and nutrition sectors are key to a sustainable future but they are also facing a significant skills shortage with an estimated 140,000 new recruits needed in food manufacturing alone by 2024 according to the UK Food and Drink Federation.

Join me as I speak to Dairy farmer, cheesemaker and activist Patrick Holden.  We discuss the Covid-19 crisis in the context of his business and how the food systems we have now need to be future proofed with a greater focus on and support for sustainable practices.

Aaron Felder was just named interim CEO for The Food Trust in January.This Friday we'll discuss how his daily duties have changed drastically since being named CEO and what the future looks like.Segment 1Jeremiah introduces the guest, Aaron Felder, the two going back and forth about their lives during the outbreak and Aaron discussing the mission of The Food Trust and their current situation. He discusses how their company does what they do and how they are funded, as well as where they operate and how the virus has affected the facets of their business and how it can actually be a benefit for them in the end. Segment 2Aaron discusses his career before he's ended up at The Food Trust, working with people with addiction, and speculates the futures of addiction centers through the crisis. They talk about the perceived scarcity of resources and their observations about people's rabid shopping habits, the social-distancing, the innovations of video technology, and how things are settling in as protocols are being taken more seriously, as well as the current situation with the education system in the cities. They compare the reaction to the pandemic to that of Superstorm Sandy and 9/11 and how those helped prepare New Yorkers in a way when high-scale disruptors like these come up.Segment 3The two talk about the thriving food supply industry but speculate when the stores begin to overstock, Aaron giving his perspective on farmer's markets and how some businesses will have to operate in these times from his line of work, and the current grounds for local businesses and restaurants as Jeremiah observes it, and interruptions in the supply chains with the surplus of food.Segment 4 The conversation continues from the last segment before the two talk about finding some peace of mind through all of the isolation, Aaron talking about working at his current position at his organization and how they work through meetings and such. Aaron ends the show talking about a funny little anecdote involving a coworker and their family during a virtual meeting.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-entrepreneurial-web/donations

Food insecurity is an issue gripping American families—including those in the Latino community—across the country. Dwayne Wharton, an Independent Consultant with Dwayne Wharton & Partners and the former Director Of External Affairs at The Food Trust, joins Salud Talks to discuss this issue and what progress is needed to ensure Latinos and all Americans have access to healthy foods.

This week we've got trust issues. Matt & Lukxmi are joined by Anthony Warner (The Angry Chef) and Liesbet Vranken (from the KU Leuven University in Belgium) to discuss who we can trust in the food system to give us reputable information about the food we're eating. From farmers to food packaging, social media influencers to health food shops – they shed some light on who to trust, and who to take with a pinch of salt.

The world is facing huge global challenges: Climate change, overpopulation, massive amounts of waste, worldwide pollution. We all know: something needs to change. And yet: We are all still too wrapped up in our own problems and goals. Companies are not yet ready to commit themselves completely to sustainability, because they also have to make a profit. Anthony Day of IBM says: We can change the world. Through networks that can ensure sustainability on the one hand and profits for companies on the other. So that our children can have a great world, too. And Blockchain can play an important role in this - how it can all happen, why it's important to him (and us), Anthony explains in this episode. Anthony is a Partner in IBM's UK & Ireland Blockchain team. He leads digital transformation and business network initiatives for IBM and its clients, where Blockchain is one of the underlying technologies. His passion is the intersection of emerging technology and projects that can have a meaningful social or climate impact. With an education in Supply Chain Management and a professional background in Digital Strategy, Anthony focuses on helping his clients achieve growth, define scalable ecosystem strategies and launch new businesses powered by exponential technologies.

Mange snakker om at blockchain vil revolusjonere hverdagen vår. For mange har blockchain vært ensbetydende med kryptovaluta, og da spesielt bitcoin, men denne teknologien har faktisk mye større potensiale enn det.Kvarøy Fiskeoppdrett er blant de aller første lakseoppdretterne som tar i bruk blockchain. Med blokkjede samler de all informasjon om laksen, til glede for både forbrukere, butikker, fiskeoppdrettere - og ikke minst fiskevelferden. Dette omfatter informasjon som hvor hvor laksen kommer fra, hvordan den har det, hva slags mat den fikk, om fisken er pakket riktig, holdbarhet og transport – for å nevne noe. På denne måten kan fiskeoppdrettere dokumentere en bærekraftig matkjede fra smolt til laksen ligger på middagsbordet. Sporbarhet er viktig for stadig flere forbrukere og matvarekjeder, som f.eks. Amazon-eide Whole Foods. Hva har Kvarøy Fiskeoppdrett lært? Hvilke utfordringer er det? Hvordan kan de utvide bruksområdene for denne teknologien? Og hvilke råd vil de gi til andre som “snuser” på Blockchain?Vi tok en prat med Alf-Gøran Knutsen, daglig leder i Kvarøy Fiskeoppdrett, og Espen Braathe, leder for satsingen på Food Trust i IBM Europa. I tillegg kommer det avsløringer om gjestenes digitale liv. Enjoy

Do you trust the food you eat? These days, more weight is being placed on conscious consumerism and people are beginning to really care about where they’re getting their food.   Blockchain, like so much technology, is generally agnostic. Its ultimate function is to make our lives easier, fuller, and richer. Food is also designed to make our lives easier, fuller, and richer — and trusting the food we eat is serious! People’s health is so often linked to the food they have access to, and when it’s not taken seriously, the results can be tragic. The global food supply chain needs to be made transparent and blockchain is the technology that can make this possible.    [CTA Button] [Explore food traceability with IBM Food Trust]   This week on IBM Blockchain Pulse, your host Matt Hooper’s guests are Dr. Nigel Gopie, the Head of Marketing for IBM Blockchain, and Alicia Noel, researcher of international food supply chain innovation, with a focus on blockchain applications, as well as the founder of Cultivati. Today, they’re going to be talking about issues that directly affect everyone listening! It’s about the food you eat — where it comes from, where it’s going, where it’s been — and of course, the many powerful ways blockchain is being used for food traceability and agriculture.    Tune in to learn about how blockchain is improving accountability and traceability when it comes to where we get our food from; how IBM Food Trust is creating a smarter, safer food supply; how blockchain is economically impacting the communities that are responsible for supplying the food that we eat, and some of the success stories of those who have embraced the quest for transparency in the food supply chain.   Financial fraud can be damaging but it can also be tracked down and corrected. Why shouldn’t the food we eat be held equally accountable?   Key Takeaways   [:01] About today’s episode and guests. [4:28] Matt Hooper welcomes on guests, Nigel Gopie and Alicia Noel. [5:00] Nigel and Alicia introduce themselves. [5:08] Alicia speaks about how she originally became interested in the supply chain of food. [10:50] Nigel shares how he became interested in this space (and in regard to his role at IBM). [12:54] How did Nigel and Alicia meet? [13:54] How are Nigel and Alicia meeting fellow Food Trust enthusiasts and those involved in food and agriculture blockchain online? [15:57] How do Nigel and Alicia get offline and travel the world to meet people in this space and see these different operations? [17:28] Is Nigel seeing people get excited about what blockchain can enable in the food and agriculture space? [18:24] Matt provides some context on IBM Food Trust and how it works. [19:18] Nigel continues his thought on what people get excited about what blockchain can enable. [21:57] Alicia explains how blockchain is helping to create accountability and traceability in terms of getting safe food. [25:43] Nigel shares how blockchain the solve the problem of people who are enslaved or being taken advantage of to make the things that we buy and eat beyond just shining a light on it. [27:41] Nigel and Alicia highlight some success stories that make that have embraced this quest for transparency and understand the global dilemma around food. [31:05] Nigel and Alicia explain how blockchain is economically impacting the communities that are responsible for growing/catching/making the food that we eat. [34:44] What does it mean to eat/drink/buy something that is ‘locally sourced?’ And how can you make informed choices as an average consumer to make sure your food is ethically sourced? [38:42] Nigel explains the role of IBM Food Trust in this whole process. [39:38] Alicia and Nigel highlight successful blockchain use cases where a sizeable waste reduction was achieved by changing up how a certain process was done. [41:36] What do Alicia and Nigel hope to see years from now with regard to how blockchain will help food and agriculture? [44:50] Matt thanks Alicia and Nigel for joining him this episode!

Sponsors CacheFly Panel Gregory McCubbin Bruno Duarte Brito Summary Gregory McCubbin and Bruno Duarte Brito answer the question “Which blockchain should I use?”. “It depends”’ is their answer. Their first advice is to ask yourself, “Why am I using a blockchain?”, “What are my goals?”, and “Do I even need a blockchain?”. Gregory begins with discussing Ethereum, being very familiar with Ethereum he teaches it on his website and in his Bootcamp. Ethereum, he describes as very versatile, with an active development community. Bruno explains the differences between public and private blockchains, the biggest one being who controls the blockchain. Using Hyperledger as his example blockchain, Bruno describes the benefits of controlling who sees what information while still maintaining security and transparency.   The idea of decentralization is considered and how this will sway your decision on the blockchain you might use for your app. Gregory explains what decentralization means and how some blockchains compromise on decentralization based on their goals. Bruno and Gregory share the most common and most influential use cases for both private and public blockchains. They are that most use cases are financial, but not all. Bruno shares a few use cases that are not all about transactions, including IBM’s Food Trust, supply chain problems and Dubai’s smart city initiative.

Albertsons has 2,300 stores across the U.S. with $57 B in sales in 2017. There are over 80 Brands including Walmart, Nestle, Dole Food, Tyson Foods, Kroger, and Unilever that are involved with IBMs Food Trust. With their blockchain, they have the ability to rapidly find the source of a bad batch of produce and specifically remove the goods from circulation. As early as 2016, IBM and Walmart did a proof of concept with China’s pork market, reducing tracking time from days to minutes. In 2018, Walmart mandated that all their leafy green produce supplier be integrated into the Food Trust blockchain by Sept 2019. https://www.coindesk.com/worlds-second-largest-grocer-joins-ibm-food-trust-blockchain https://corporate.walmart.com/media-library/document/leafy-greens-on-blockchain-press-release/_proxyDocument?id=00000166-0c4c-d96e-a3ff-8f7c09b50001 Health Unchained Info: Website: healthunchained.org Telegram: t.me/healthunchained Twitter: twitter.com/Healthunchaind Udemy Blockchain/Healthcare Course (75% off with DOGUM2019 coupon): https://www.udemy.com/blockchain-and-healthcare/?couponCode=DOGUM2019

"La tematica relativa al Food Trust ha portato le aziende del settore a certificarsi con sistemi di HACCP, per poter comunicare al consumatore in maniera trasparente che esistono procedure di tracciabilità che garantiscono la sicurezza dei propri prodotti.Ma proprio questa tracciabilità è di difficile gestione soprattutto a ritroso, cioè quando si verificano delle problematiche dal lato del consumatore, un percorso che impiega un effort non indifferente.E se la Blockchain fosse impiegata in questa direzione, potrebbe essere la soluzione per l’annoso problema della traccibilità dei prodotti alimentari del settore Food?Lo abbiamo chiesto a Marco Crotta, Blockchain Specialist e Advisor, fondatore di Blockchain Caffe ( https://www.blockchaincaffe.it ).Scopri il progetto, partecipa alla community e scopri i contenuti extra su http://fintech24.it"

In this episode, we explore the IBM Food Trust project, which aims to make the supply-chains of foods more transparent by leveraging blockchain tech. Carrefour & Walmart are 2 companies already on-board. IBM created the hard-drive, floppy disk and without them, we wouldn't have the computer so they're an incredibly progressive company that has a history of revolutionizing enterprise so we're really excited about what they can do with Blockchains/DLT systems. 0:48 - What is IBM Blockchain? 2:00 - Blockchain for Business 3:00 - The Food Trust Program 6:34 - How foods are tracked in the Food Trust program. 10:03 - Walmart's Blockchain Pilot 10:59 - Who benefits from IBM Food Trust? 13:27 - How is 'Trust' ensured? 17:49 - The Blockchain revolution isn't coming.

For most of us, the holiday season brings to mind favorite food traditions, from stuffed turkeys to applesauce-laden latkes. Shoppers may make sure that their poultry is free range or their apples organic, but when we head to the supermarket to pick out groceries for holiday meals, how often do we consider the frontline retail workers who shape our shopping experience? Food retailers play an important role in communities, serving as major employers and anchor institutions. But local chains are facing challenges from market consolidation, new competitors, and new technologies that threaten to alter business operations and replace workers. Some stores are finding ways to differentiate and improve business performance by investing in workers – which helps them create exceptional customer service and cater to local communities. Research by the National Grocers Association, the trade association for independent supermarkets, indicates that more than 80 percent of consumers still prefer their local store to an online alternative, and they value local, quality items and friendly staff. This event explores how grocers can succeed – and can advance economic and racial equity – by investing in workers. Bringing together food access advocates, food retail leaders, and workforce development experts, we discuss what consumers, business owners, and policymakers can do to encourage good working conditions for the people behind our groceries. This event features Congressman Dwight Evans (US Representative for Pennsylvania's Second District), Claire Babineaux-Fontenot (CEO, Feeding America), Scott Emerick (Executive Director, YouthBuild Philadelphia Charter School), Yael Lehmann (President & CEO, The Food Trust), Sailu Timbo (Director of Diversity, Hy-vee), and moderator Eric Kessler (Founder, Principal, and Senior Managing Director, Arabella Advisors). This event is part of the Working in America series, an ongoing discussion series hosted by the Aspen Institute Economic Opportunities Program that highlights an array of critical issues affecting low- and moderate-income workers in the United States and ideas for improving and expanding economic opportunities for working people. For more information, visit as.pn/workinginamerica. The Economic Opportunities Program advances strategies, policies, and ideas to help low- and moderate-income people thrive in a changing economy. We recognize that race, gender, and place intersect with and intensify the challenge of economic inequality and we address these dynamics by advancing an inclusive vision of economic justice. For over 25 years, EOP has focused on expanding individuals' opportunities to connect to quality work, start businesses, and build economic stability that provides the freedom to pursue opportunity.

While it is the foundation for a healthy society, not every community has access to nutritious food and education about how to make better choices. This episode looks at important work being done by a non-profit organization in Philadelphia to help neighborhoods, schools, grocers, farmers, and policymakers work together to address the challenges of health and food security.Guest:Dwayne Wharton, Director of External Affairs, The Food Trust, Philadelphia, PA

Host: Ron Beard, University of Maine Cooperative Extension Studio Engineer: Amy Browne Program Topic: Healthy Food Options for Maine General Stores Key Discussion Points: o Where do we in Maine stand in terms of healthy eating? o How easy or hard is it for people to make healthy choices as they plan meals for themselves and their families? o Do some groups have a more difficult time getting access to healthier food choices? o What are “food deserts” and do we have them in Maine? o Where do general stores rural areas fit into the “food system”? o What elements of the typical business model of a general store get in the way of offering healthier options to their customers? Is this part of a long term trend in terms of where people shop for food? What are some of the challenges for general stores? How do the wholesalers fit into these trends? o What models of addressing the notion of “food deserts” have worked elsewhere, perhaps in urban settings? Introduce the Food Trust's national model and tell how you are adapting that model for rural areas in the collaboration with Healthy Acadia and CEI. How will it work and where are you in the processs? o What other general stores are you working with, and what are some of the strategies you are interested in trying? o How else are you connecting local growers and local consumers, through the healthy general stores initiative and elsewhere in the region? (mention ongoing work with food pantries, schools, etc?) What have been some of the responses? o Wrap up with contact info and where listeners can learn more about healthy eating and purchasing healthy food Guests: Katie Freedman, Healthy Acadia Sandy Dubay, Healthy Acadia Dan Wallace, CEI The post Talk of the Towns 8/14/15 first appeared on WERU 89.9 FM Blue Hill, Maine Local News and Public Affairs Archives.
