Nature offers space for companies and entrepreneurs that create more from less. Cascading Economy supports these innovations and offers them a platform.
A healthy, sustainable and local diet must be made possible - why not through #solidarity#farming? We see great potential for regional development with the model of solidarity-based agriculture! Don't miss our last case on this topic: https://t.co/iEwUr8vl8H
"Externalities"are the social and environmental burdens borne by outsiders to production - not by the polluter. #Externalities are a problem that would be eliminated by a different, more regional food model - more on this in our next case! https://t.co/ZFXBQgTcWf
What consequences do people and the environment have to endure for our cheap #vegetables? Even within the EU, some of the #working conditions are inhumane.
How can we make it so that these #externalities are no longer created for our consumption?

In Germany we #import more than 2/3 of consumed vegetables, fruit and fish. How is the food produced and #transported? For sure there are alternatives that offer safe access to local and #sustainable#food production. Read more about it in our next case!

Clean #water, as you can read in our last case, is indispensable for humans and nature. Nature as a model helps to develop viable and sustainable alternatives for water management, like using #fungi against chemical or medical #residues in #wastewater.

#Agrophotovoltaics (or #agriphotovoltaics) offer a solution for sustainable and future-proof energy supply, food production and climate change – through the intelligent dual use of agriculture and photovoltaics. Read more: https://t.co/PdebYVqIVo
#Agricultural#wastewater poses risks, but solutions for the management of this kind of water have hardly been implemented in the last decades. Find out in our new case which solution we framed for this issue - following nature's example: https://t.co/r9D7ya5bj7
Mit Klimabalons CO2 in Schneeflocken verwandeln und so den Klimawandel abbremsen? Was es damit auf sich hat können Sie hier lesen: https://t.co/6Cgm1Fb9ZM
Precise and individual application of water, pesticides and herbicides could enormously reduce the environmental impact of agriculture. This can now be accomplished through robotics combined with an AI system, resulting in enormous efficiency.

The food supply is in a quandary. Conventional agriculture pollutes the environment with fertilizers and pesticides, while organic farming results increased labor and high prices. Robotics could provide a valuable alternative here.

The big hindrance of solar energy to concur the market is its storage. However, a thermal fluid was developed that can store solar energy via chemical bonds and release it up to 18 years later. This may givesolar power the tool it needed. More here: https://t.co/Rt5dsOFlm4
Die Schifffahrt stößt viel Treibhausgas aus. Hier soll ein neuer, grüner Treibstoff eingeführt werden: Ammoniak. Er stößt kein CO2 aus und die niedrigsten Abgasen zu verzeichnen. Transportschiffe könnten schon bald klimaneutral betrieben werden. Mehr hier https://t.co/IzaEpsdzK1
There are insects, capable of consuming specific types of plastics. In addition, they are a nutritious and environmentally friendly source of protein.
Combining these facts and we can reduce plastics while creating a protein source at the same time.

By 2050 there could be 9.7 Billion people, relying on a stable food supply and plastic free environments. A difficult challenge to meet. There is a combined approach that involves the decomposition of plastics while producing protein: Insects.
