☆ Sausage-maker thinks he’s found the answer to Germany’s raccoon problem

After receiving the green light, Reiss started making his “raccoon balls,” meatballs made from raccoon meat, which he said turned out to be a hit at the fair and with customers at his shop, which is called Wildererhütte. Annegret Hilse/ReutersSoon Reiss was selling online, and he now makes a total of seven raccoon meat products, including salami. “We’re the only place in Europe selling raccoon meat,” Reiss told CNN. But if you didn’t know, you wouldn’t realize that anything is too different.”Reiss pictured making a salami containing raccoon meat. Annegret Hilse/ReutersWhile Reiss’ raccoon products have become a novelty attraction for visitors to Kade, they are also a response to a serious problem, he says.

☆ Greenland sharks can live for over 250 years, and scientists want to use their anti-aging secrets to help humans live longer
  + stars: | 2024-07-15 | by ( Jenny Mcgrath | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
It's entirely possible that there are Greenland sharks still living today that were swimming in the North Atlantic Ocean at the time. Some theories include the shark's slow growth rate and low metabolic rate, but research is ongoing. Scientists hope that unlocking the secrets of how these fish age could help humans live longer, healthier lives. "We want to look closely at some of these hallmarks to determine if the Greenland shark shows any signs of traditional aging," he said. While Greenland sharks' remarkable aging process has allowed them to survive centuries, it could also be a double-edged sword as their environment rapidly changes.

☆ Palm oil is in almost everything, and it's devastating rainforests. This Bill Gates-backed company used microbes to create an alternative
  + stars: | 2022-11-03 | by ( Catherine Clifford | In Catclifford | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +11 min
Palm oil grows best in the regions right around the equator, so palm oil producers chop down rainforest and clear that felled vegetation by burning it, making it a prime target of conservation organizations like the Rainforest Rescue and the World Wildlife Fund. Palm oil trees grow at the Cikasungka palm oil plantation, operated by PT Perkebunan Nusantara VIII, in Bogor Regency in West Java, Indonesia, on Monday, June 20, 2022. To make its palm oil alternative, C16 Biosciences uses a wild yeast microbe that makes a functional equivalent to palm oil with a kind of fermentation process. Photo courtesy: Cat Clifford, CNBCChemically, the palm oil that C16 Biosciences makes is not identical to the palm oil that is grown in industrial agriculture farms. However, "it contains the same fatty acids, which are the molecular fingerprints of fats and oils, that palm oil does," Heller told CNBC.
