@foeus.bsky.socialHas the Trump admin delivered on its promises to MAHA voters? Spoiler alert: no.
A new scorecard shows that over 85% of their 42 actions on food, ag & pesticides contradict their commitments. It's time to hold them accountable for their broken promises. mahascorecard.com

@foeus.bsky.social"Did you know that a hundred of the world’s largest companies by revenue across global food and agriculture collectively generated $4.5 trillion in revenue in 2022? That is more than the entire GDP of Germany that year — the world’s fourth-largest economy"
@foeus.bsky.socialNew data shows that greenhouse gas emissions associated with New York City school food purchases fell 59% between 2019 and 2025, driven by more plant-forward menus.
@foeus.bsky.socialFarming in a way that improves soil health could lead to better food and might even slow climate change — especially if it can be done at scale. But the meaning of “regenerative” is up for debate.
@consumerreports.orgReposted by @foeus.bsky.socialWhat is ‘regenerative agriculture’ and can it improve our food quality? Health editor Kevin Loria soil health school to learn what a more sustainable way to grow crops and raise animals looks like.
@foeus.bsky.socialThe food system we have isn’t the only option. And world hunger isn’t unsolvable. In fact – the resources and solutions already exist around the world. We just have to embrace them.

@foeus.bsky.socialEmissions from the use of NVIDIA chips could be on par with those from burning coal sold by Russian state-owned company Russian Coal, according to a new @caadcoalition.bsky.social report.

@ketanjoshi.coReposted by @foeus.bsky.socialHEY EVERYONE - NEW REPORT!!!
NVIDIA is the largest company by market cap on the planet. But it hides key climate data, while claiming AI is going to be a 'net benefit' for climate.

@civileats.comReposted by @foeus.bsky.social“There are actors in the space who I think are doing a lot of good and moving forward regenerative projects,” says Friends of the Earth’s Sarah Starman. “There are also a lot of companies that are capitalizing on sort of the loosey-goosey nature of regenerative.”
@civileats.comReposted by @foeus.bsky.socialIn the world of Big Food, companies are primarily making “commitments” to helping farmers implement regenerative practices in their supply chains, without putting the word on a food label.
