The alternative protein sector in the Middle East will need to work towards gaining regulatory acceptance and improved product accessibility to overcome consumer acceptance challenges, very similar to those that were faced in APAC.
Black environmentalists making a difference in their communities
Nan Kirlin
As the month of February quickly draws to a close, it is important to highlight prominent black environmentalists that have been nationally and internationally accredited.
The first is one from our very own state of North Carolina. Savonala Savi Horne is executive director of Land Loss Prevention Project. Her organization works to prevent the loss of land in African-American communities throughout North Carolina.
They were incorporated in 1983 with the intent to stop the massive losses of Black owned land in the state and in 1993 they broadened their scope to include legal support and assistance to all financially distressed and/or limited resource farmers and landowners throughout the state.
