There really is so much potential in this sector! I'm not sure where you are on your journey but a good place to start may be to look through our Alt Protein Project resources: https://gfi.org/the-alt-protein-project/ or our Research Grant Program resources: https://gfi.org/researchgrants/.

From an ecological perspective, sustainability describes the ability of biological systems to remain healthy, diverse, and productive over time. Sustainability is a concept that applies to higher levels of replications by biological organizations - such as ecosystems, rather than to individual species . In the realm of globalization and associated dietary transition, traditional food items are often replaced by easily available super processed foods , lab foods as "Alt Protein" !? This definition is simply absurd ,ridiculous from Indian ethnic community perspective ! From immemorial times tribal , aboriginal communities of India consumed fresh water molluscs as alternative meat . Recent research states carbon footprint of snail meat is estimated to be around 0.7 kgs per 1 kg of edible meat and snail meat contain 16 grams of protein per 100 grams of edible meat !
Indian natural bio-resource for alternative protein is Edible Snail Meat !
I want to help do research on this but there are so many options, I don't know where to start!

A good problem to have I guess :)
These insights makes me even more bullish on alt proteins this year! 👏🏾
Interesting to see you on Substack. I will be honest, I am not a fan of the way you go about recruiting people.
