The LMO Price

It is a concept I have been dreaming about for years, the concept of 'One man’s trash is other man’s treasure' and I hope food is an integral part of this concept. This project will create a reduction of unrenewable resources, reduction of waste, reduction of carbon emissions, opens opportunity of small circular businesses. As our world’s population is expected to peak at 10bn in 2050. Our resources, the earth’s raw materials, are not limitless. As a result, global labour and raw material costs are on the increase. Circular economy business opportunities can offer new ways to mitigate these risks to allow businesses to grow and diversify. In a circular economy, products and materials keep circulating in a high value state of use, through supply chains, for as long as possible.
