Thoughts on that trend on tiktok and IG of people feeding their horses fruit rope candy and doughnuts, candy bars, and cheetos?? It drives me crazy but everyone says irs fine because it's a small amount-.-

Honestly, it usually is fine in small amounts. I had a pony that loved licorice. I had one that would get a pumpkin muffin after horse shows. Lots of them like apple cider donuts ginger snaps and carrot cake. Peppermints are a common treat for horses, You shouldn't feed horses chocolate, potatoes, avocados, or caffeine. You also shouldn't feed them lawn clippings because of potential hazards from chemicals and potential for botulism. Bear in mind the daily calorie intake for a horse is more than ten times that of the average human just for maintance (15000 calories) and their stomachs can hold 10-20 gallons (and that is considered small for animals of their size)

Also beer. A lot of people think it's weird that horses can have beer but for some horses its actually medicinal. Horses can sometimes get a condition known as anhydrosis which is when they aren't able to produce enough sweat. As a treatment we often give horses a can or two of Guinness twice a day to help them sweat more and to help lower their body temperature. Brewers grains and yeast are common supplements to help horses with digestive health as they act as a probiotic.

For cheetos in particular, sure horses really shouldn't eat dairy (because lactose) but its a corn chip. Corn is an ingredient of most horse feeds anyways.

Most of those things don't have anything horses can't eat; sugars, their diet is mostly carbohydrates and plant based sugars, horses are herbivores but they can eat animal based protein like eggs, gelatin (a common additive to joint supplements), or krill/fish oils, vegetable oils are a typical additive to feed (though you shouldn't overloaded them with fats as horses don't actually have gallbladder so they cant store bile, which means they can't break down large quantities of fat in one go)

Corn and wheat are in a lot of horse feeds (though they are Inflammatory and toxic if moldy so you do want to weigh the risks and only feed as absolutely needed if using them as a regular feed)

Just for perspective, my 1400lbs mare eats about 4 pounds of a feed with molasses, wheat, and soy as a calorie source, roughly 5 lbs of Alfalfa hay, 36 lbs of grass hay, a half pound of ground flax seed, and she spends all night nibbling on grass (which is sugary compared to hay). Thats A LOT of food.

For supplements she gets apple cider vinegar, garlic, and grape seed extract. Pretty much all of those are toxic to dogs but horses can have them and even benefit from them. They have anti-inflammatory effects that help horses with arthritis, and allergies as well as helping to repel flies

In rural Arizona, groundwater is largely unregulated; whoever has the money can drill a well and lay claim to the water. Thus, as household wells were running dry with the falling water table, a Saudi agricultural giant was permitted to use deep industrial wells to extract unlimited amounts of groundwater, allowing it to grow alfalfa in one desert to feed dairy cows eight thousand miles away in another desert, in a water-stressed nation that has, for all the right reasons, banned the cultivation of the crop within its own borders.

These plants are using HUMAN effects!  Do not feed your cat these plants for funsies, because they can be deadly! Also, heads up, this post contains plants primarily from the UK and North America, since the books take place in England and borrow animals from North America.

Febuwhump 2024, Day 10: Time, Malon & Chain - Killing In Self Defense

Fandom: LOZ/Linked Universe

Summary: Nearly home, there is a fire in the distance. The only thing that way was Time's home... Malon. Dark has taken a small army under his command, possessing them to do his bidding at he drag Malon into the house. Time goes on a rampage to get her away from his long time enemy. But Dark has already left his mark on her, identical to Twilight's.

CW: blood, injuries, major violence,

Notes: Time's fighting in and outside the house is inspired by "Extraction 2". And I was 100% listening to Phonk music to keep this upbeat.

The last leg of the walk from the latest portal to the Ranch wasn’t a long distance and it had Time quietly humming with joy that he finally got to see his beloved wife after five months. He couldn’t wait to wrap his arms around her, drink in her warmth and scent. It didn’t matter if he was at the ranch, the castle or some other place; he was never truly home until she was in his arms.

The others seemed to be more at ease too with the knowledge that they were going to make it to one of the few places they called home away from home, but the mood shifted when Twilight grabbed Time’s arm.

“Pup?”

“Somethin' ain’t right.” Time watched the boy’s nose flare as if catching a scent. He had more wolf tendencies than he knew. “Fire. Somethin' is burnin' close by.”

“There isn’t anything between us and- Malon.” Fear stricken, Time took off in a dead sprint for his home.

Getting closer, Time started to smell the unmistakable scent of hay, alfalfa and oak burning. Breaking through the tree line, black smoke could be seen. The barn was engulfed in a roaring blaze, roof already giving way. There was something banging against the barn door before the doors were flung open. Epona charged out with the other horses behind her.

‘Good girl.’

Looking at his home, it wasn’t on fire, but there were knights from the castle surrounding it. There was no way Queen Zelda sent them to do this. He halted just at the edge of the property, the boys right beside him. He took in the full sight, trying to see if he could see Malon first.

“Time.” Warriors whispered next to him. “Look at their eyes.”

All of the mens’ eyes were solid white.

“They are possessed. Dark did this exact thing to me, but never got to act with it.” A few of them were shocked by Twilight’s admission.

None of it mattered as a familiar form walked onto the porch, a sinister smile on his face. He had Malon’s hair gripped tightly in his hand, pulling her along as she struggled. Ruby red eyes met his, smirk growing as he put a finger over his lips as if doing a “shhh”. He opened the front door and disappeared into the home, several soldiers following him inside.

Malon screamed.

“MALON!!” Time shouted, taking off again. Jumping the fence he quickly leaned back to dodge the sword going for his neck. He grabbed the man’s wrist, sword still in his grasp, and pushed the blade through the possessed soldier.

With his shield being a faster option, he pulled it from his back, holding it with both hands on the sides and swung it as hard as he could into the next person, sending the knight to the ground after flipping from the force. Now it was a swarm headed his way, starting with a man he recognized in the blue and white uniform as the Death Mountain Trail Gatekeeper. His sword was raised above his head and he charged. Time crashed his shield into his backside when he clearly couldn’t slow down. He went down face first into the dirt at Time’s feet. Keeping the momentum of his shield going, Time rotated his hips, bringing it across his body to swipe the next sword away, followed by a hit from the other direction right to the dazed soldier’s head. He didn’t get back up.

From behind him, Legend hollered a warning, “Molotov!”

Knowing what it was, Time braced as the bottle with a cloth on fire was headed directly at him. The fire exploded across his shield, lapping at his exposed skin, spreading to wherever the liquid inside had flown to. That included his right forearm. Time threw the shield down as the new threat approached, sword swinging wide. He caught the man’s arm and punched him in the throat.

Three more ran up. Time swiftly landed a punch to each of their jaws, bringing them down effortlessly. A soldier swiped his sword from across his body, forcing Time to duck under the blade where he then grabbed the soldier’s ankle, stood and kicked at the inner knee, breaking the leg at the cap.

Next was a man who was not like the others, he was big and blurry, but Time was bigger. The brute of a man slashed at Time, dragging the edge of his sword along Time’s chest plate. All that accomplished was pissing Time off more. He punched this man repeatedly, alternating hands until he backed him up against a tree. He smashed his fist into the man’s face over and over with his dominant hand until the man fell to the ground, jaw slacked and broken. He waved his arm to finally put out the fire he had only just noticed.

With not even a second glance to the others, knowing they could handle the small army, Time found an opening between people fighting and charged for the front door as he heard another scream from inside. Pure rage filled him seeing the men waiting for him just past the door, Malon and Dark nowhere to be seen. He gave the white eyed men a choice to walk away with their lives. None moved.

“I’m getting too old for this shit.”

He grabbed the first one to step forward by his uniform, slung him around so he was facing the opposite direction and kicked in the center of his chest. Time smiled at how far the other went flying and rolled across the yard. Someone placed both hands on Time’s shoulders to turn him around. As he spun around, he grabbed the tin coffee mug from the table, nailing the one hanging onto him in the temple. By the back of the neck Time flung him around and when the man went to stand again, he heel kicked him in the hip. The loud pop and crunch of the joint meant the bastard wasn’t getting up.

He made it a few more steps to the kitchen, knights’ following his movements. As three of them attacked from each side and his back, he grabbed the deboning knife from the knife block. His arms were grabbed at the elbows, but he muscled his way to get some space. Each of the three received multiple stab wounds before falling to the floor.

Next two apparently didn’t learn from their comrades as they tried to go for his arms too. One was met with the pointed end of the knife to the chest, the other got the butt of it bashed several times to the skull. One more tried and was too easily brought down. Time followed through with the blade. He was not in the mood to keep these men company, so he took more knives and accurately threw them, stopping two more from even trying.

Eight left…

Tight quarters were not ideal for the sword on his back, opting for the dagger at the back of his belt. Flipping his grip on it so the blade was pointed downwards, he fought these men. Four were met with the same fate as the others before Time was tackled, lifted and slammed down onto the coffee table. Weaponless, Time went for the coffee table leg that became detached from the fall and started beating the end of it against the metal helmet of the one that was sitting on him. He didn’t stop until the helmet was caved in and wasn’t coming off.

Looking to his left, there was a soldier's short blade and he used it since the rest of them decided that he was an easy target while on his knees. If anything, he was more ruthless, relentless and desperate. Multiple knee caps were shattered (Four would be so proud), jaws dislocated, bones fragmented and bodies spread throughout the house.

Taking in a few deep breaths, he marched up the steps and took out the small dagger that was lodged between two ribs. He didn’t know when that got there, but he sure could breathe better with it out. Two steps at a time, he made it to the top, stopping to take in the fact that two knights were dead on the floor. He cursed under his breath knowing that Malon must have taken on those two. Her first kill. “Shit.”

Muffled cries could be heard ahead in the bathroom and that’s where he went to. Opening the door Dark pounced on him, falling into the spare bedroom on the other side of the hallway. Time was in no mood for games as Dark stepped away and into the bathroom where Malon was sitting in the corner doubled over.

All Time saw was red… red hair, red blood, red eyes and the red that pulsed in his vision. He snarled much like the god that lived inside him as Dark pointed his black blade at his wife, tip of it under her chin. “You hurt her and you’ll be sorry for crossing that line.”

Dark laughed. “Be sorry? I don’t even know what that means. I have never apologized for a damn thing in my life. I have heard it all before through the centuries, people calling me a monster. Why should I apologize for being a monster? Has anyone ever apologized for turning me into one?”

The question on a normal day would make Time stutter, but his wife was at the other end of the blade.

“So allow me to be the monster everyone knows me to be as I cross this line. Oh wait, but I already have.”

Time rushed Dark, taking him by the throat and the wrist that held the black blade. He dragged him to the nearest window and hurled him out it for the boys to deal with.

Back in the bathroom, Malon went into a fit of hysteria as he approached her. Her eyes were screwed shut, hands shoving at him and she was screaming at him to leave her alone. “No! Go away, leave me alone! Stop!!”

“Malon! Malon, it's me. It’s Link.” He kept her at arms distance until she opened her eyes and looked at him.

“Link?”

“Yeah, it’s me. Just me.”

Her eyes welled up with tears. “Link, I- I killed someone. I killed a man. Oh dear gods! What have I done? I didn’t mean to, I swear I didn’t want to, but I-”

He pulled her close, rocking from side to side. “You did nothing wrong. You only did what you needed to do to protect yourself.”

“But I killed-”

“In self defense. I am so very proud of you for doing it.” He kissed the top of her head, allowing her to calm down for the moment. “We should get you cleaned up, darling.”

Upon standing with his help, Malon let out a sharp gasp and clutched her side. Time caught her before she went all the way back to the ground. Under her hand was crimson red flowing freely. He moved her hand and could see the gash right below her ribs, black lines already showing on her pale skin.

“ No. ”

To be continued…

The Great Salt Lake is drying up and the Republican government of Utah is doing little to save it. They constantly cave to the usual groups: agricultural interests, mining, homeowners who like spacious lawns in an arid region, and big industry.

The largest saltwater lake in the western hemisphere has been steadily shrinking, as more and more water has been diverted away from the lake to irrigate farmland, feed industry and water lawns. A megadrought across the US south-west, accelerated by global heating, has hastened the lake’s demise. Unless dire action is taken, the lake could decline beyond recognition within five years, a report published early this year warned, exposing a dusty lakebed laced with arsenic, mercury, lead and other toxic substances.The resulting toxic dustbowl would be “one of the worst environmental disasters in modern US history”, the ecologist Ben Abbott of Brigham Young University told the Guardian earlier this year. Despite such warnings, officials have failed to take serious action, local groups said in their lawsuit, which was filed on Wednesday. “We are trying to avert disaster. We are trying to force the hand of state government to take serious action,” said Brian Moench of the Utah Physicians for a Healthy Environment, one of the groups suing state agencies. “Plaintiffs pray that this Court declare that the State of Utah has breached its trust duty to ensure water flows into the Great Salt Lake sufficient to maintain the Lake,” reads the lawsuit, which was brought by coalition that includes Earthjustice, the Utah Rivers Council, the Center for Biological Diversity and the Sierra Club, among others.

Political pressure has not been very effective in a state dominated by Republicans. The state's response is lukewarm at best. That's in addition to bizarre proposals.

The state’s Republican governor, Spencer Cox, has suspended new claims to water in the Great Salt Lake basin and appointed a commissioner to oversee response to the lake crisis. Last year, Utah’s legislature passed several conservation measures, including a $40m trust to support lake preservation projects. But Abbott and his colleagues, who authored a sobering report on the lake in January, found that those measures increased flows to the lake by just 100,000 acre feet in 2022. About 2.5m acre-feet a year of water will need to flow into the lake to bring it to a healthy level, the researchers estimated. That water will likely have to come at the expense of agriculture, which takes in about three-quarters of the water diverted away from the lake to grow mostly alfalfa and hay. Cities and mineral extraction operations each take up another 9% of diverted water. But wresting water away from agriculture is politically complicated. Officials have explored propositions to pay farmers to fallow land and use less water, though such proposals have yet to gain much tractions. Lawmakers have also offered up a series of out-of-the-box solutions – including cloud seeding, which uses chemicals to prompt more precipitation – or building a giant pipeline from the Pacific Ocean.

Seriously, a pipeline from the Pacific Ocean? This is a classic idiotic GOP way to deal with an environmental catastrophe which doesn't get to the root of the problem.

Already, the lake has lost 73% of its water and 60% of its surface area, and is becoming saltier, threatening native flies and brine shrimp. A diminished lake may be unable to support the more than 10 million migratory birds that stop over in the region. A white pelican colony recently abandoned a nesting site on the lake, potentially due to declining water levels. “In addition to the millions of people who live here, so many plants and animals depend on the lake,” said Deeda Seed, Utah campaigner at the Center for Biological Diversity. “The health of northern Utah’s entire population depends on the Great Salt Lake’s survival and I hope this lawsuit can help save it.”

^^^ emphasis added

Yep, take their asses to court to save the body of water which gave the state's largest city its name.

When people think of buzzing, busy bees, the one species that nearly always flits to mind first is the charismatic and much celebrated honey bee – Apis mellifera. The honey bee is widely recognized and well-loved thanks to its magical ability to transform floral nectar into sweet and delicious honey, a household pantry (and farmers market!) staple. This industrious, hard-working insect is also highly prized for the pollination it provides for a variety of crops including apples, melons, cranberries, pumpkins, squash, broccoli and almonds.

While it is the most well-known type of bee, many of us aren’t aware that honey bees are not native to the continental United States. In fact, they are indigenous to Eurasia and were introduced here by European settlers who brought over the first hives to these shores in 1622. Nowadays, honey bees are considered essential to American agriculture, with one in every three bites of food produced from the pollination they perform. Amongst commercial beekeepers and farmers, domesticated honey bees are thought of as a livestock commodity, just like sheep, pigs and cattle.

While there has been an enormous amount of media coverage and high-profile campaigns to “save the honey bees” that have stoked concerns for the welfare of the species in recent years amidst a spike in colony collapses, our attentions may have been misplaced. Out of the 20,000 bee species that exist worldwide, honey bees are the least in need of saving and can be counted as a harmful invasive species when they outcompete wild, native bees for food. Fortunately, environmentalists and experts are now working to correct the murky messaging and redirect attention to the plight of our native bee populations, many of which are truly endangered. 

Native Bees Native bees are indispensable to the health of our natural environment, yet they are declining due to escalating threats from agricultural expansion, pesticide use, habitat loss and climate change. Ironically, scientists have established that agricultural yields can be higher with the superior pollination provided by our native bees versus that of honey bees. Of course, it makes sense that bee species that have co-evolved for millennia alongside crops indigenous to the Americas, such as cranberries, blueberries and squash, are the ones best designed to most efficiently extract pollen from these plants.

Here is a closer look at some native bee species and the local crops they help pollinate:

1. Leafcutter Bees Leafcutter bees earned their name because they cut oval-shaped fragments from deciduous leaves and use them to construct nest tunnels inside rotting wood, hollow-stemmed plants or in the ground. Unlike highly social honey bees who live together in hives, leafcutter bees are solitary individuals that build their own nests, live alone and never venture farther than 100 yards from their home base. Leafcutter bees can be used commercially to pollinate a variety of fruit and vegetables including blueberries, sunflowers, onions, carrots and alfalfa. Farmers provide bee boards for the insects to nest in, shelter them during the winter, and then place them outside in time for the next growing season.

2. Bumble Bees Bumble bees are the only bees native to North America that are truly social and live and thrive together in colonies. These fuzzy bees pollinate a variety of food crops including tomatoes, potatoes, blueberries, pumpkins, cranberries, bell peppers and eggplant using a technique known as buzz pollination during which they audibly vibrate, or buzz, against a flower’s anthers to shake loose its pollen. Buzz pollination has been shown to increase crop yield, while bumble bees are also more effective than honey bees at pollinating crops grown in greenhouses. Currently, the Common Eastern bumble bee (Bombus impatiens) is the only bumble bee native to the eastern U.S. and Canada that is reared and used commercially by farmers for its pollination services.

3. Squash Bees Before honey bees were introduced to the New World, native squash bees (Peponapis and Xenoglossa) were responsible for helping with the domestication and production of squashes and gourds by indigenous peoples throughout the Americas. Squash bees tend to be solitary but have been known to group their nests together in suitable ground habitat. They are specialist bees who are unique in that they will only visit flowers within the cucurbit family (i.e. squashes, pumpkins, melons, cucumbers and zucchini). When present in adequate numbers, these native bees have been shown to be more efficient pollinators of commercial squash crops than honey bees.

Scientists estimate that over 52% of the 1,437 identified native bee species in the United States are declining at an alarming rate. To support these critical critters and the vital pollination services they provide, the best approach is to start local, right in your own backyard. Make your garden as bee-friendly as possible by eliminating or minimizing pesticide use, planting native wildflowers such as coneflowers, wild bergamot and New England aster, and skipping the fall cleanup to provide bees with shelter in which to overwinter such as hollow stems and piles of dead leaves.

According to the study by Next Move Strategy Consulting, the global Cold Pressed Oil Market size is predicted to reach USD 44.78 Billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 4.7% by 2030.

Request for a sample, here: https://www.nextmsc.com/cold-pressed-oil-market/request-sample  

In recent years, there has been a significant surge in consumer demand for cold pressed oils due to their perceived health benefits and environmental sustainability. As awareness about the adverse effects of conventional oil extraction methods grows, consumers are increasingly seeking out alternatives that prioritize both health and sustainability.

Cold pressed oils are extracted from various seeds, nuts, and fruits using hydraulic pressing techniques, without the use of heat or chemicals. This gentle extraction process helps preserve the natural flavor, aroma, and nutritional integrity of the oils, making them highly sought after by health-conscious consumers.

However, the sustainability of cold pressed oil production goes beyond just the extraction process. Sustainable production techniques encompass every aspect of the supply chain, from cultivation and harvesting to processing and packaging. Here's a comprehensive guide to sustainable production techniques in the cold pressed oil market:

Organic Farming Practices:

Sustainable cold pressed oil production starts with the cultivation of organic crops. Organic farming practices prioritize soil health, biodiversity, and natural pest management techniques, thereby reducing the reliance on synthetic pesticides and fertilizers. Organic farmers avoid the use of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) and synthetic chemicals, opting instead for natural fertilizers such as compost and manure to nourish the soil.

By maintaining healthy soil ecosystems, organic farmers promote long-term sustainability and resilience against environmental stressors such as droughts and floods. Moreover, organic farming practices support biodiversity by preserving natural habitats and providing refuge for pollinators such as bees and butterflies.

Crop Rotation and Diversity:

Crop rotation is essential for maintaining soil fertility and preventing soil erosion. Sustainable cold pressed oil producers rotate different crops seasonally, alternating between oilseed crops such as sunflower, soybean, and sesame, and rotational crops such as legumes, grains, and cover crops.

By diversifying crop rotations, farmers can break pest and disease cycles, improve soil structure and nutrient content, and reduce the need for chemical inputs. For example, leguminous cover crops such as clover and alfalfa fix nitrogen in the soil, reducing the need for synthetic fertilizers and promoting soil health.

Water Conservation:

Water is a precious resource, especially in agriculture. Sustainable cold pressed oil producers employ water-saving irrigation techniques such as drip irrigation and rainwater harvesting to minimize water wastage and reduce their environmental footprint.

Drip irrigation delivers water directly to the plant's roots, reducing evaporation and runoff compared to conventional overhead irrigation systems. Rainwater harvesting systems collect and store rainwater for irrigation purposes, reducing dependence on freshwater sources and alleviating pressure on local water supplies.

In addition to irrigation efficiency, sustainable producers implement soil moisture monitoring systems and water management strategies to optimize water use and minimize water stress on crops. By conserving water resources, cold pressed oil producers contribute to the sustainability of agricultural ecosystems and ensure the availability of water for future generations.

Energy Efficiency:

Cold pressing machines require energy for operation, but sustainable producers prioritize energy-efficient technologies and renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power to minimize their carbon footprint. Solar-powered cold pressing machines harness sunlight to generate electricity, reducing reliance on fossil fuels and lowering greenhouse gas emissions.

Wind turbines can also be used to generate clean energy for cold pressing operations, especially in windy regions with favorable wind conditions. By investing in renewable energy infrastructure, cold pressed oil producers reduce their environmental impact and contribute to the transition towards a low-carbon economy.

Furthermore, sustainable producers implement energy-saving measures such as insulation, energy-efficient lighting, and equipment optimization to minimize energy consumption and maximize efficiency. By adopting energy-efficient practices, cold pressed oil producers not only reduce operating costs but also demonstrate their commitment to environmental stewardship.

Waste Management:

Sustainable producers implement comprehensive waste management strategies to minimize waste generation and maximize resource utilization. By composting organic waste and recycling packaging materials, they reduce the environmental impact of their operations and promote circular economy principles.

Composting organic waste such as fruit pomace and seed husks produces nutrient-rich compost that can be returned to the soil as organic fertilizer, closing the nutrient loop and enhancing soil fertility. Recycling packaging materials such as glass bottles, metal tins, and cardboard boxes reduces the demand for virgin materials and minimizes landfill waste.

In addition to waste reduction, sustainable producers explore innovative ways to upcycle waste streams into value-added products. For example, fruit pomace can be processed into animal feed, dietary supplements, or natural cosmetics, creating new revenue streams and reducing waste disposal costs.

Fair Trade Practices:

Ethical sourcing is integral to sustainable cold pressed oil production. Fair trade practices ensure that farmers receive fair prices for their crops and are provided with adequate support and resources to improve their livelihoods and communities. Fair trade certification programs such as Fair Trade USA and Fairtrade International set standards for social, environmental, and economic sustainability, ensuring that producers receive a fair share of the value chain.

By partnering with fair trade certified cooperatives and suppliers, cold pressed oil producers support small-scale farmers and promote social equity and inclusion in the agricultural sector. Fair trade premiums are invested in community development projects such as education, healthcare, and infrastructure, empowering farmers and their families to thrive.

Transparent Supply Chains:

Transparency is key to building consumer trust and confidence in the cold pressed oil market. Sustainable producers maintain transparent supply chains, providing traceability from farm to bottle and ensuring that their products meet rigorous quality and sustainability standards. Traceability systems track the journey of raw materials from the source to the final product, enabling consumers to make informed purchasing decisions and verify the authenticity and integrity of cold pressed oils.

By sharing information about farming practices, production processes, and quality certifications, cold pressed oil producers educate consumers about the environmental and social impacts of their products and empower them to support sustainable brands. Transparent supply chains promote accountability and integrity in the cold pressed oil market, fostering trust and loyalty among consumers.

Packaging Innovations:

Sustainable packaging alternatives such as biodegradable bottles, recycled materials, and eco-friendly labels are increasingly being adopted by cold pressed oil producers to reduce plastic waste and minimize environmental pollution. Biodegradable bottles made from plant-based materials such as PLA (polylactic acid) or PHA (polyhydroxyalkanoates) decompose naturally in composting facilities or marine environments, reducing the accumulation of plastic waste in landfills and oceans.

Recycled materials such as glass, aluminum, and paperboard are also used for cold pressed oil packaging, offering a more sustainable alternative to virgin plastic. Glass bottles are infinitely recyclable and preserve the flavor and freshness of cold pressed oils, while aluminum cans are lightweight, durable, and easily recyclable.

Furthermore, sustainable producers prioritize minimalist packaging designs and eco-friendly labels made from recycled paper or plant-based inks to minimize environmental impact. By adopting innovative packaging solutions, cold pressed oil producers reduce their carbon footprint and demonstrate their commitment to environmental responsibility.

Conclusion:

By adopting these sustainable production techniques, cold pressed oil producers can not only meet the growing demand for healthier and environmentally friendly products but also contribute to the preservation of natural resources and the well-being of future generations. As consumers become more conscious of the environmental and social impacts of their purchasing decisions, sustainability will continue to be a driving force in shaping the future of the cold pressed oil market. By embracing organic farming practices, water conservation, energy efficiency, waste management, fair trade practices, transparent supply chains, and packaging innovations, cold pressed oil producers can create a more sustainable and resilient food system that benefits people, planet, and prosperity.
