Natural protein produced by using air, climate controlled indoor farms, artificial meat made out of cells? Yes, this is already a reality. But we need to find many more new sustainable methods of producing food. It is a crucial challenge to tackle in a world where we - soon - will be 10 billion people. Caroline Sachs has for decades focused on this, working with business as a force for change in the way produce and consume food. For many years she dealt with these issues as the Secretary General of the Swedish non-profit organisation Axfoundation. Now she is running the investment company Martas Explorers in Stockholm which invests in start-up businesses dedicated to finding environmentally friendly ways of producing food.

Emma Stenström

She is a self proclaimed academic activist, she tells us how a lifetime of feeling like an outsider has helped to shape her view of not only business and sustainability - but the world as a whole. Emma is a teacher and associate professor at Stockholm school of economics. In this episode of The Oracle Emma talks about the importance of stepping out of our own comfort zones - our so-called bubbles, and listen to what’s going on around us.

Anders Rosengren

Embarrassingly long meals, forgetting the fitness app and combining science with existential questions are some of the things that Anders Rosengren will be talking about in this episode. He is a doctor, a professor of molecular medicine and an author in Sweden, working with different kinds of health projects where questions about life are incorporated. Of course we must say yes to all that is measurable and scientific, but also open our eyes to the fact that health is so much more than that, Anders says. Therefore, he and his research colleagues at Gothenburg University have developed Livsstilsverktyget, the Lifestyle Tool, an internet based tool which aims to better prevent and manage lifestyle diseases.   It focuses on stress, loneliness, relationships, ageing, food, exercise and on the importance of putting our health in a larger perspective.
