For more than a year, the non-governmental organization Friends of the Earth (FOE) has been trying to malign and defame Impossible Foods becauseย we use genetic engineeringย to make delicious, wholesome meat, using simple plant ingredients, without the disastrous environmental impact of animal farming.
Why would a nongovernmental organization purporting to โchampion a more healthy and just worldโ launch a smear campaign against Impossible Foods, a startup whoseย entire purposeย is to eliminate the worldโs most destructive technology?
Simple: The US wing of FOE is an anti-science fundamentalist organization that wants to eliminate genetic engineeringย at any cost,ย including the lives of people, the health of the planet, and even FOEโs own credibility. This is an organization on the wrong side of history, doomed to irrelevance for failing to acknowledge and embrace reality.
