What happens when ships start running on food crops?
⚠️Land pressure
⚠️Higher food prices
⚠️Strain on fragile food systems & ecosystems
As @IMOHQ rules are shaped, #biofuels risk deepening food insecurity in Africa.

Diversification of #termite diets was made possible by #genome modifications
Study reveals that evolutionary divergence occurred before ecological divergence, enabling these #insects to feed on both wood and soil. Future discoveries may be applied to the production of #biofuels.
