To a significant extent, the goal of a more carbon productive food system is a question of getting the business and financing models right to unlock the full potential of existing solutions. Shifting mindsets and behaviours matter too: for example, adopting a plant-rich diet is ranked #4 by Project Drawdown (with a CO2 reduction potential of 66 gigatons). Technological breakthroughs also have a role to play in augmenting the food and agriculture system’s Carbon Productivity potential. Two emergent examples: • A group of biochemists at the Max Planck Institute for Terrestrial Microbiology in Germany are working on ways to ‘turbo-boost’ photosynthesis (thereby also boosting carbon sequestration) using gene-editing tools, such as CRISPR.75 When it comes to feeding a global population of nearly 10 billion people, some observers are pinning significant hopes on such gene-editing capabilities because turbo-boosting photosynthesis also means crops grow faster, improving agricultural yields.76 • Swiss company Climeworks is a pioneer of ‘direct air capture’ — removing CO2 from the atmosphere and supplying it to customers in the food and beverages sector (for carbonated drinks, for example) and to farmers using greenhouses, where pumping in additional CO2 can increase the rate of photosynthesis and boost crop yields by up to 20%. In short, there are many ways the food value nexus can shift towards greater Carbon Productivity — from the way food is grown, to the way it is packaged and transported, to the way waste is cycled back into valuable streams. We see many of these innovations taking hold at a grassroots level. The challenge now is to do it on an industrial scale. This will require a combination of increased consumer awareness and demand (aided by certification schemes and front-of-pack labels), continuous technological innovation and significant levels of investment to reconfigure business models and supply chains. 75 Popularmechanics.com, New Way of Transforming CO2 Is More Efficient Than What Plants Do, https://bit.ly/2LY3OCO 76 Geoffrey Carr, ‘Farming tomorrow’ in Franklin (ed)., Megatech: Technology in 2050 (2017) 25PDF Image | Our Carbon Future White Paper

Infinity Supercritical CO2 10 Liter Extractor Design and Worldwide Rights: The Infinity Supercritical 10L CO2 extractor is for botanical oil extraction, which is rich in terpenes and can produce shelf ready full spectrum oil. With over 5 years of development, this industry leader mature extractor machine has been sold since 2015 and is part of many profitable businesses. The process can also be used for electrowinning, e-waste recycling, and lithium battery recycling, gold mining electronic wastes, precious metals. CO2 can also be used in a reverse fuel cell with nafion to make a gas-to-liquids fuel, such as methanol, ethanol and butanol or ethylene. Supercritical CO2 has also been used for treating nafion to make it more effective catalyst. This NFT is for the purchase of worldwide rights which includes the design. More Info
