Pod Bites: Beans mean business
Could beans change the world?
With the climate changing, the cost of living going up and our guts suffering from the fibre gap, beans are a real opportunity. Now it's time to scale these tasty superheroes.
Paul Newnham, CEO of the SDG2 Advocacy Hub and the Chief Bean Officer at Beans is How, reports from London Climate Action Week on the growth of the Bang in Some Beans campaign - now at 41 Keen Bean businesses who have committed to the movement.
The Food Foundation and Veg Power have teamed up on a mission to double UK bean consumption by 2028. Click here for more information about our Keen Bean businesses.
