Hungry for lunch but don't want to go out? One local restaurant owner hopes you don't reach for that meal-delivery app just yet. Olive & Finch's Mary Nguyen recently told BusinessDen that these apps are profiting off of the “blood, sweat and tears” of small businesses like hers. So today, newsletter editor Peyton Garcia joins producers Paul Karolyi and Olivia Jewell Love to sort out the delivery app conundrum. Plus, we respond to listener comments on Half-Baked Harvest and discuss a big new idea for anyone hoping to eat less meat, but not make Thanksgiving dinner so dang awkward. And finally, our recommendations for your weekend. What do you think? Are you a “reducetarian”? Or have thoughts on delivery apps? We'd love to hear them!

Tuna are like the tigers of the ocean: apex predators essential for oceanic health. And just like with tigers, humanity has been waging an unprovoked war on tuna, causing their numbers to plummet in recent decades. They may not be furry, but these finned beasts still need help, and help them is exactly what Impact Food is seeking to do. Founded in 2021 by a few recent UC-Berkely grads interested in doing something good for the world, the company has embarked on a journey to recreate whole muscle seafood without the fish. In fact, their CEO, Kelly Pan, is so interested in doing good in the world that she's a regular listener of this very show. So when I met Kelly at the Reducetarian conference in May 2022, I knew I'd be cheering her on, and I'm very glad to have her as a guest on this episode. Impact Food has now raised about $1 million in venture backing, gotten onto menus in California, including Pokeworks—the largest poke chain in the US—and is now raising a seed round to bring their whole muscle alt-tuna to thousands of menus nationwide. Kelly tells her tale in this episode, including her past entrepreneurial endeavors and what she's seeking to accomplish now. I think you'll be impressed! Discussed in this episode: Impact Food was born out of the UC-Berkeley Alt-Meat Lab. Impact Food then moved to KitchenTown in San Mateo, Calif. Paul's blog on how food waste alters meat demand. Kelly recommends the book Delivering Happiness. More about Kelly Pan Kelly Pan is the Co-Founder & CEO of Impact Food. She is a foodie turned entrepreneur on a mission to build a more sustainable and resilient food system. With a degree from UC Berkeley-Haas School of Business, Kelly has led multiple interdisciplinary teams and launched impact-driven projects, including a skincare brand and a pro-bono consulting organization for small businesses. Through Impact Food, Kelly envisions a future of food that can reliably feed a growing global population while keeping fish in the oceans. She and her team are leveraging plants and biotechnology to create the most delicious and nutritious whole cut seafood alternatives. She is excited to bring tasty and accessible Impact Food to the masses.
While vegan activists have been struggling to find the most effective way to get people to stop eating animals, today's guest employs a unique approach to tackle this dire problem. In an effort to empower reluctant people to change their dietary patterns, Brian Kateman coined the term “Reducetarian”—which means a person who is deliberately reducing his or her consumption of meat—and he co-founded the Reducetarian Foundation, a non-profit spreading this message. Brian is also the author of Meat Me Halfway, which attempts to create common ground at the dinner table, and he is also the co-director and producer of the documentary of the same name. Tune in to hear about how Brian is addressing the ethical and environmental problems of animal consumption and production and the practical steps we can take to do something about it right now! “At the end of the day, I want to reduce societal consumption of animal products to the greatest extent possible, and I want to use the most effective tools to make them happen, to make that happen. And certainly, I think there's a place for a sort of moderate, inviting kind of message rather than telling people to cut out animal products entirely.” – Brian Kateman What we discuss in this episode: Why Brian believes that convincing people to reduce their consumption of meat, instead of trying to convince them to completely stop, is the most effective way to implement change. Why he considers the “Reducetarian” tactic to be just one of many. How and why Brian changed his diet. The foods Brian ate when he first transitioned to veganism. The foods he ate growing up. Things Brian witnessed while shooting his documentary. Brian's thoughts on cell-based meats. The reasons animal agriculture is so inefficient.

The episode is brought to you by AASA (the Australasian Animal Studies Association) and the Animal Publics book series from Sydney University Press.
Today we discuss the newest nutrition category of "-etarians".... Reducetarians. What is it? Are you one? If you want to be one, what are some steps you can take to become one?

Its a hard thing to discuss with so much food insecurity. 1.4 Billion tons of food are wasted annually. Americans waste 40 million tons making us the biggest losers. And it is the biggest single item in our landfill. Why do we waste so much food when there is so much food insecurity? Real or Perceived food spoilage means 80% of Americans throw away perfectly good food. And why? Because of confusion over Sell By, Use By, Best By Labeling standards. What is a Reducetarian? An all inclusive, affirmative description of people who want to reduce their consumption of Animal Products. Not Vegan, Not vegetarian but someone who strives to consume less animal products as Methane Gas contributes significantly to the deterioration of the Ozone Layer. The Earthy Girls want to encourage, inform & inspire you to take that small step, make that 2 degree pivot towards loving your planet not just living on it. It's a Mindset! Flip that Script.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Announcing the Reducetarian Fellowship!, published by Sofia Fogel on February 1, 2022 on The Effective Altruism Forum. Applications are now open for the Reducetarian Foundation's newest initiative, the Reducetarian Fellowship. This program is supported in part by a grant from Open Philanthropy. Overview The Reducetarian Fellowship is designed to foster a more diverse, sustainable, and impactful movement by empowering bright, passionate, and ambitious young advocates and innovators to transform our food system. This exciting new program is for exceptional New York City-area undergraduate students who are eager to create a more sustainable, healthy, and compassionate world. The one-year experience is designed to equip and encourage students to pursue a career focused on combating industrial animal agriculture. Each fellow receives a $7,500 stipend to support their participation in the program, and one-on-one mentorship from the Fellowship Director (me!) throughout the year. For the inaugural cohort we will be selecting approximately 15 fellows. Program components The first component of the Fellowship runs from September to May. The curriculum offers students the opportunity to explore foundational ideas and cutting-edge strategies through seminars with scholars, activists, and other leaders in the field. It also allows students to develop their professional skills and network through workshops with specialized experts. The second component of the Fellowship runs from June to August, when Fellows will put their learning to direct use in an 8-10 week summer residency at a partner organization. The residency is an immersive learning experience that will give Fellows first-hand experience with some of the most impactful work in food system reform and innovation. Partner organizations The fellowship partners are a diverse set of high-impact public- and private-sector entities connected to the Reducetarian Foundation's mission of reducing societal consumption of animal products. They include nonprofits with missions related to environmental issues, animal welfare, or human health; companies focused on plant-based, fermented, and cell-cultured alternatives to conventional animal products; philanthropic institutions; and venture capital firms. Each fellow will do their summer residency at the partner organization that best fits their skills and interests, so the participating organizations will vary each summer in accordance with the profiles of that year's cohort. Eligibility requirements and selection criteria All applicants must be: A U.S. citizen or permanent resident Enrolled at a university in the New York City area (this includes some universities in New Jersey) Able to physically attend twice-monthly events in Manhattan A sophomore, junior, or senior during the Fellowship year (so students must apply during the spring semester of their freshman, sophomore, or junior year) We are looking for students who are self-motivated and eager to make an impact, and who believe they would benefit from this program. Qualities sought include (but are not limited to): Robust interest in creating a more sustainable, healthy, and humane food system Interest in the Reducetarian philosophy and/or effective altruism Ability to receive constructive feedback and implement changes in response Growth mindset (the belief that new skills can be developed through hard work, good strategies, and high-quality input from others) Ambition, openness, humility, and integrity Apply now You can apply to be a part of the Reducetarian Foundation's inaugural cohort here! Questions We have an FAQ page on our website. If your question is not listed there, please email me at sofia@reducetarian.org. If you are a student who is unsure whether this opportunity would be the right fit for you, I strongly encourage...
Ever heard of Reductionism or Reducetarian? You may be one yourself. In a nutshell reductionism is reducing the consumption of animal products. This on the surface sounds like a great thing to do. But recently, it's been getting a lot of stick (from vegans themselves!).In this episode we discuss what reductionism is, and what the impact of this is to our environment and animals. We then discuss why there is resistance towards this movement, and finally we give our thoughts on this.Note: This podcast is made for entertainment purposes only, and should not be used as any form of advice.

By now, you’ve heard me conduct interviews with guests in the plant-based realm to uncover some pretty cool ideas and stories related to their experience and expertise in order to give you something to chew on that maybe you hadn’t heard or thought of before. But what does it sound like when someone who eats meat interviews me about the idea of eating like I give a damn??Well, here’s your chance to hear an example!This interview was conducted by Kirk Churchill - personal trainer, US Army veteran, and host of the Kicking It With Kirk podcast. In his show, he is all about sharing the power of perspective by being open and curious about the people around us and how they view the world through their unique experiences. In this interview, Kirk and I discuss compassion, protein, mindset, and...my embarrassing digestive disorder that plagued me since I was a kid. It’s nothing pretty to have to talk about, but I do it for the benefit of others who might be in distress today with what I experienced in my belly.You’ll hear about how Kirk is a bodybuilding enthusiast and is curious about how one would get those #VeGains - and if that’s your passion too, then you’ll love the resources I point out as well.Request to join our community of rebels at www.eatinglikeyougiveadamn.com/group for recipes and support.If you like what you hear, don't forget to: SUBSCRIBELeave a REVIEWSnap a PHOTO while listening to the show and tag @eatinglikeyougiveadamn on Instagram and FacebookVeg On, Rebels.

In theory, vegetarianism for climate mitigation is really quite simple. Just don’t choose the ham sandwich; have the hummus instead. It seems like a much simpler switch than building electric planes – and equally, perhaps even more so, as impactful – but a mass move toward vegetarianism just isn’t happening. In this episode, Alex asks Marta Zaraska why, despite an ever-increasing abundance of vegan celebrities, memes, restaurants, and meat substitutes, we just can’t stop eating meat. As the author of Meathooked: The History and Science of Our 2.5-Million-Year Obsession with Meat and a Polish-raised, kielbasa-loving eater herself, Marta is a sympathetic voice of reason. Rather than creating black-and-white categories of ethical eating, she advocates for “a strong reducetarian identity” that celebrates incremental progress. Tune in for Marta’s thoughts on why meat-eating is different for us than it was for our ancestors, how meat is linked to power and masculinity, and what created the cultural tension between carnivores and vegans.

Let’s Rage Together Podcast — This episode is part one of two where we discuss veganism and its definition, and whether or not we should expand it to include things like including human animals, intersectionality, veganism as a political stance, reducetarianism, “health” veganism, killing insects, buying animals, trace ingredients and e-numbers, using your old non-vegan items, horse riding, honey, and some other things in between. We also do our regular ‘Bad and Rad’ segment before we dive into the main discussion. Outro song: Vegan Thanksgiving - Grey Other music, recording and editing by us.

First up is nutrition and fitness with Toronto RD Fergussson. Then meet Brian Kateman, founder of the Reducetarian movement, which seeks to reach people who are unwilling to go vegan right away, but can be convinced to cut back on animal products, often from an environmental perspective.
This episode features a recording of a panel discussion from the Reducetarian Summit, held in New York City in May 2017. The goal of the summit was to spark solution-driven conversations that can help individuals and communities decrease meat consumption. I had the pleasure of moderating the opening panel of the summit, focused on providing an overview of the Broken Food System. In the recording, you will hear some introductory remarks from me, followed by presentations from 6 different experts for about five minutes each, covering the wide-ranging impacts of industrial animal agriculture, from worker treatment, the environment, animal rights, public health, antibiotics and global food security. Even if you don't want to listen to the brief individual presentations on various issues, I highly recommend the Q&A part of the panel. It begins around the 45-minute mark of this episode and includes questions posed by myself and the audience.

Everyone is familiar with vegetarians, vegans, and macrobiotics... but what about reducetarians? This new movement focuses less on hard-line extremes, and instead, encourages any and all steps toward a healthier, happier, and more compassionate diet. As we always emphasize at YOGABODY, balance is always the goal, and it's also the most elusive. On this week's Yoga Talk Show, you'll meet the founder of this reductionist approach to eating, Brian Kateman. ------------ Listen & Learn: Why hard-line diets are not necessarily the right choice for everyone How to think about food systems holistically in terms of personal health and environmental health Why factory farms are responsible for 15% of greenhouse gases, 10x the amount of water as plant-based alternatives How Average Americans eat 270 lbs of meat per year Why "clean meat" or lab-grown meats could be the future of foods ABOUT OUR GUEST Brian Kateman is cofounder and president of the Reducetarian Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to reducing meat consumption in order to create a healthy, sustainable, and compassionate world.

Today I expanded on the book review that I wrote on The Reducetarian Solution, a series of essays on eating less animal products edited by Brian Kateman. It's not an entirely vegan book, which may bother some people, but I think people interested in animal advocacy should know what it says to know whether to promote, support or recommend it.
Big Blend Radio interview with Brian Kateman, Cofounder and President of The Reducetarian Foundation, and editor / curator of “The Reducetarian Solution: How The Surprisingly Simple Act of Reducing The Amount of Meat In Your Diet Can Transform Your Health and The Planet”. This new book is a compilation of more than seventy essays from thought leaders across many disciplines on the concept of reducetarianism, with a foreword by New York Times-bestselling author Mark Bittman. www.reducetarian.org
According to Brian Kateman, if every American reduced their intake of meat and fish by 10%, huge gains would be made in personal and global health. So how do we moderate our consumption, and why should we? On today's show -- the second in our series studying Moderation -- we discuss why it's so hard to not go whole-hog with certain foods overall. Then we dig into Kateman's work with Reducetarianism and his new book, The Reducetarian Solution [Tarcher Pedigree]. How do the essay contributors see this reduction as playing out in religion, politics, and science? How do the most productive conversations come about in regards to this kind of moderation? And can just tightening by 10% really help ourselves and the planet?

This week on Eat Your Words, Cathy is joined in studio by Brian Kateman, President of the Reducetarian Foundation. A vegetarian tired of feeling guilty for eating the occasional turkey breast on Thanksgiving, Brian came up with the idea of reducing but not eliminating meat from his diet. He was inspired by his research on the impacts of animal farming on the environment and human health and became a reducetarian and author on the topic. His book The Reducetarian Solution will be available in stores on April 18.
Brian Kateman is cofounder of the burgeoning Reducetarian movement, and one of the bright young stars in the fight to save humanity, animals, and planet earth from spiraling into an unredeemable mess. Brian reached out to me about a year ago, sharing a modest vision for an edited book designed not to turn ordinary people into vegetarians or vegans, but simply to encourage and empower them to eat less meat.
