Hilarious that this book starts with a utopian vision of the 2050s and people are up in arms because it's not currently realistic or practical.....do you understand what science fiction is?

You've been told that "tech won't save us." But the opposite is just as true. Garrett Broad and I wrote about the dangerous appeal of "nature-based solutionism," or the idea that natural solutions to complex problems will save us. They won't. newrepublic.com/article/193307…

Scandalous: Red Tractor, the UK's largest farm animal welfare certifier, is cutting farm audits—even though most farms only get checked ONCE a year at best. Maybe it has something to do with the British Poultry Council sitting on Red Tractor's board... 🤔

Just yesterday I had a lefty friend tell me that he had never seen AI complete a task better than him or other humans. Absolutely wild (But some are using it - huge boost to campaigning ability/prowess IMO!)

Gestation crates for mother pigs are banned in the UK, but widely used in the US If the UK compromises on food safety standards in a trade deal, lower-welfare pig meat could be let in

Book publication day in the UK! After years of work, it's always a little nerve-wracking to release a new book. But here are a few people who were kind enough to say lovely things about it in advance 😅: - Trevor Noah: 'Rutger Bregman’s latest work isn’t merely a book; it’s a

Insect farming is often presented as a climate solution But a new UK government report shows insect farming is much worse for the climate than current options

Pretty sad that Iceland Foods ❄️ has dropped their cage-free egg commitment despite every other major UK retailer being on track to be 100% cage-free by the end of this year (if they're not already). Approx. 75% of UK hens are cage-free - clearly it is possible!
