Our vision:

Collaboration with the biggest student cafeteria chain in Finland: UniCafe


Our business model: Gigacorn
A gigacorn is a company that sequesters or lowers greenhouse gas emissions a gigatonne/year, and is commercially viable. Food Futures Net Zero is positioned to take a step toward lowering emissions counted in metric tonnes. Each 500 beef burgers converted into 500 plant-protein burgers achieves roughly 1 metric tonne of CO2e reduction.
