Animal agriculture currently uses a whopping 83% of all agricultural […]

Bean-Geeks and Word-Geeks Rejoice: Here’s the Name Nuance While people (including us) often use the words “legumes,” “pulses,” and “beans” interchangeably, technically these terms have different and distinct meanings.

Today’s food system results in more than two billion undernourished people. Millions die every year due to hunger-related causes, while millions more die due to diseases of affluence. A world that is “well-fed” ensures enough quality food for everyone. Such food maximizes well-being and minimizes harm, thus nourishing people, protecting animals, and sustaining the planet.
