The music industry is an ecosystem in itself, and one that's come under fire lately for its massive associated carbon footprint and waste production. Between the recording, live shows and touring, music publishing, digital streaming, distribution, and promotion, music is increasingly dominant in the modern landscape of entertainment. There are endless not-so-green elements, and we're here to explore the endless potential improvements, too.

Can we still enjoy yoghurt and eat well for the planet? We’re fully immersing ourselves in one of the biggest food-based climate and sustainability topics: dairy! To provide a bit of real-world insight, we sat down with Tom White, the Regenerative Farming Manager at Yeo Valley, to talk about organic, nature-friendly farming, the role of climate change on farming as well as farming's own impacts on the planet, and how consumer choices and markets dictate a lot of what our farmers are able to do.    Get in touch We're on Instagram, Bluesky, and email [email protected].

Shell we go a little bit nuts together? This food group is having a bit of a *moment*; equally at home in our diets and social media feeds.

Plus, squirrel season is in full swing: Many tasty morsels are in season right now in the UK (think hazel nuts, walnuts), and some inedible nuts that still have brilliant natural uses, like horse chestnut (also known as a conker).
