Giant water bugs are exceptional fathers. After mating, females of some species cement their eggs to the male's back, then depart, leaving him to parent alone.

For over two weeks, the male diligently cleans, aerates, and fiercely defends the eggs from predators until they hatch.

Research indicates that female giant water bugs prefer males already carrying eggs, suggesting that strong paternal care is a highly valued trait in sexual selection.

While voting and protesting are vital, relying solely on governments for environmental solutions is insufficient. Though profit-seeking contributes to environmental problems, companies developing new technologies also play a crucial positive role.

Current food production methods are significantly degrading the planet, a problem exacerbated by a rapidly growing global population expected to reach 10 billion by 2050. This trend will drastically worsen ecosystem degradation and atmospheric warming.

To alter this trajectory, we must explore alternative food production methods. This session will examine how technology and design, particularly alternative proteins, can help address these critical issues.

Join us to hear from Laura Wellesley, a Research Fellow at Chatham House specializing in alternative proteins, and Daniel Jones, Senior Campaign Manager at Feedback, who will discuss technology's role in developing the food system.

Current food production methods are severely degrading the planet, a crisis intensified by a global population expected to reach 10 billion by 2050. This unsustainable trajectory demands urgent alternative solutions, particularly in how technology and design can reshape our food system.

Alternative proteins offer a promising path forward. Join us to hear from Laura Wellesley (Chatham House), an expert in alternative proteins, and Daniel Jones (Feedback), who will discuss technology's role in developing a sustainable food system.
