Q2327132 Inglês
O texto a seguir é parte de uma chamada para publicação de artigos em uma edição especial da revista Nature.

The environmental and ethical implications of traditional livestock rearing, combined with an increasing global population and demand for protein-rich nutrition, has led to investments in alternative protein research. One emerging approach is cellular agriculture, in which traditional ‘meat’ tissues, such as muscle and fat cells from cows, chicken and fish, or alternative protein sources, such as algae, are cultivated under controlled laboratory conditions. However, the optimisation of these protocols is highly dependent on cell types, and further development is required to make cellular agriculture an economically viable alternative to traditional sources of protein. This special issue welcomes research on improvements to cellular agriculture protocols to maximize sustainable protein production.

Q2327131 Inglês
Em uma visita a um museu de arte indígena, um estudante observou uma obra seguida de uma placa explicativa:

In some indigenous cultures, headdresses represent Native peoples’ right to govern themselves according to their own laws. The materials they are constructed with can vary greatly, including wood, iron, feathers, and ivory. Rather than using gridded designs (symbols of spiritual beliefs) or putting birds or mammals at center stage, as several others do, horns were attached to this headdress, an emblem of power reserved for those “whose exceeding worth and power is admitted by all the nation”.

I have a dream that one day down in Alabama, with its vicious racists, with its governor having his lips dripping with the words of interposition and nullification; that one day right down in Alabama little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers (Martin Luther King, 1963).

Food insecurity hits nearly 60% of Brazilians, study shows.

  A study from the Brazilian Research Network on Food Sovereignty and Security released Wednesday showed that 58.7% of Brazilians lived with food insecurity, which replicated data not seen since 1993. In other words, 125.2 million people are affected by this issue, while 15% of the population, or about 33 million people, go hungry on a daily basis.
 
 The document also highlighted that this phenomenon was a consequence of the country’s economic crisis and the ensuing labor market situation. The survey consisted of interviews conducted between November 2021 and April this year in 12,745 households across 577 municipalities in all states. Compared to 2018, the increase in the Brazilian population with food insecurity is 60% and since 2020 this figure grew by 7.2%.
 
  It was the second National Survey on Food Insecurity in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic in Brazil and showed that the daily victims of hunger increased from 19 to 33 million from 2021 to 2022. The most affected areas of the country are the North and Northeast, with 25.7% and 21% of the families involved, respectively. The report also revealed that 60% of households in rural areas are food insecure, with 18.6% of them in the most severe state. Hunger also affected 21.8% of the families of small agricultural producers.

  The study also focused on investigating the relationship between food and race and confirmed that access to food is not a problem for 53.2% of the households of self-declared white people, but this percentage drops to 35% in the homes of self-declared black people. In these families, the percentage of people who suffer from a lack of food on a daily basis increased from 10.4% to 18.1%. The situation worsened in households managed by black women, of which 63% showed some degree of insecurity.

   According to the survey, in 2022, one out of three Brazilians did something that caused shame, sadness or regret in order to obtain food. "We have gone back 30 years in the fight against hunger, it’s scary. But the current indignant movement is far from the indignation of 1993 with 32 million hungry people. We are inert as a society," explained Kiko Afonso, one of the members of the team to conduct the study.

Marching towards starvation: UN warns of hell on earth if Ukraine war

   Beasley added that the number of people experiencing "shock hunger" had increased from 80 million to 325 million over the same period. They are classified as living in crisis levels of food insecurity, a term he described as "marching towards starvation and you don’t know where your next meal is coming from". Beasley said that after the economic crash of 2007-09, riots and other unrest erupted in 48 countries around the world as commodity prices and inflation rose.
   "The economic factors we have today are much worse than those we saw 15 years ago," he said, adding that if the crisis was not addressed, it would result in "famine, destabilisation of nations and mass migration". "We are already seeing riots in Sri Lanka and protests in Tunisia, Pakistan and Peru, and we’ve had destabilisation take place in places like Burkina Faso, Mali, Chad," said Beasley. "This is only a sign of things to come."
   Ukraine’s agriculture ministry says more than 20m tonnes of grain that would normally be exported is trapped in the country because of Russia’s blockade of its Black Sea ports. European leaders, including the French president, Emmanuel Macron, have urged Russia to ease its blockade of Odesa, Ukraine’s main port, to allow exports of grain.
   In the long term, Beasley called on the world’s richest people to commit more of their wealth to tackling global hunger, while also urging Vladimir Putin to open up Odesa. "It is a very, very frightening time," said Beasley. "We are facing hell on earth if we do not respond immediately. The best thing we can do right now is end that damn war in Russia and Ukraine and get the port open."
