Natural resources such as water, food, and energy are deeply interconnected, and challenges in one could have a substantial impact on the other. According to CSE and Down to Earth’s State of India’s Environment 2022 report, food practices account for 21-37% of greenhouse gas emissions every year. Improving food security, addressing climate change, and reducing the pressures on land and water have emerged as crucial topics of discussion today. To address these challenges, businesses are increasing reflecting on their sustainability efforts to create economic and societal value. For manufacturers in the food and beverage (F&B) industry, this means pressure to re-think their sustainability credentials throughout the supply chain while ensuring compliance with all regulations. By efficiently planning their product life cycle journeys, food manufacturers can optimize product sustainability and drive customers to their products faster. Leading F&B companies are beginning to discover that this sustainable approach could be a winning business opportunity.

Ethereum, the 2nd biggest crypto network, slashes its energy use

The world’s second-biggest cryptocurrency network, Ethereum, is about to pivot to a new system that will use vastly less electricity.

Why it matters: One of the biggest knocks on cryptocurrencies centers on the enormous amount of energy its networks consume. But with this change, trading in one of the leading currencies will be no more energy-intensive than playing an online video game.

How it works: Cryptocurrency networks use so-called “consensus mechanisms” to ensure that transactions are valid. Those tools keep track of who owns what and ensure that no one spends any currency that isn’t theirs.

  • The original consensus mechanism, “proof-of-work,” is the reason crypto uses so much energy.
  • Ethereum is switching to a new strategy, “proof-of-stake.” It’ll be an expensive shift, but after it happens, Ethereum’s energy use might only be about 1% of what it was before, according to the Ethereum Foundation.
  • The switch, known as The Merge, is expected to happen a bit after midnight Eastern Time tonight. Users shouldn’t notice anything different once it happens.

Yes, but: Up till now, Ethereum has used a lot of power, but Bitcoin has always been — and will continue to be — the industry’s biggest energy user, by far.

“That’s been, I guess, our curse, but it’s because the network is so cheap and fast that there are enough users and applications that are driving that,” said Yakovenko. Yakovenko argued that the outages themselves are not wholly a negative thing. Even though they are challenging, this proves that the network has users and is in constant use.

“This is our biggest challenge, which is maybe the one that I like to have because of all these challenges that are coming because we have users on the chain on a daily basis,” claims the CEO.
