    3. The Protein Breakthrough That Would Change Everything
    2023/07/06
    In this episode, your host Marcus Taylor is joined by Chris Simcock, who works for Leaft. Leaft is on the cusp of isolating the most abundant protein on the planet, rubisco, which is found in the green leaves of plants. Numerous companies have tried and failed to extract it in bulk in a usable form. The first to do so will change the landscape of our planet forever by reducing world hunger, carbon & methane emissions, and nitrogen leaching. Their team projects protein yields of 2.5 tons per hectare - 4x higher than that of dairy, all grown and harvested in a carbon-neutral way.

    Today, your host Marcus Taylor describes his experiences inside some of the largest Favelas in South America. Behind the guns and the drugs lies a complex society, woven into a maze of narrow alleys, stacked houses, and endless stairs that wind up Brazil's most iconic mountain valleys. Intergang violence, shootouts with police, and human trafficking are just some of the challenges the people living in these communities face on a daily basis.
