Eating coffee, saving lives and rainforests
This is a story about coffee—to be precise: about eating coffee. It is also a story about potentially the largest—and surely the only profitable—regeneration of nature project ever undertaken. It is a story that begins in a small country with two million inhabitants on the Baltic Sea between Lithuania and Estonia.
The End of Alzheimer’s
Edward was a successful businessman with companies on both the East and West coasts of the United States. He would meet with his accountants and add columns of numbers immediately in his head before the accountants could do so on their calculators. As he approached 60, however, he began to have memory problems. One day at the gym, he panicked when he forgot the combination to his locker, and his lock had to be cut.

’We do not need to fix our debt. We need to fix our thinking’
Economist Stephanie Kelton argues for a radical shift in economic thinking to better deal with crucial challenges societies face—from poverty and inequality to creating jobs and reversing global warming.
There are two stories about the origins of modern money. One is the story as most of us know it: Money started as shells to facilitate barter between, say, fishermen and farmers.
it’s the food, stupid!
The Covid-19 pandemic has taught us a couple of things: We cannot take what we hear or read at face value, and it is up to all of us to join the dots for ourselves.
We already know that the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which causes Covid, is twice as virulent as seasonal flu, from the same SARS family, which puts its mortality rate at around 0.4 percent. For more than 90 percent who get the virus, it will cause mild symptoms. According to health agencies, 30 percent will not even know they have it, and will be entirely symptom-free, or asymptomatic.
The winning case for the 15-hour workweek
For three decades, I have been documenting the lives of the Ju/’hoansi people of the north-western Kalahari, and their often-traumatic encounter with modernity. The Ju/’hoansi are perhaps the best known of the handful of societies who still sustained themselves by hunting and gathering well into the 20th century. And to them, very little about the relentlessly expanding global economy makes sense.
Food can fix everything
Dr. Mark Hyman knows that bad food makes people sick. He has been using food as medicine for 30 years achieving spectacular results like completely reversing type 2 diabetes within a week or two. Then, one day in 2014, he realized that treating patients in his doctor’s office meant he was merely treating symptoms of a much bigger problem. The real treatment, he thought, had to start at the roots of the food chain: on the farm, in the grocery store and in the kitchen at home.
Face masks: a natural solution
Ancient knowledge can make a major contribution to the fight against the coronavirus. Recently, the New England Journal of Medicine published a study that found that the virus lasted only briefly on copper, compared with days on stainless steel and plastic. The outcome should not have come as a surprise.
Trump is right: UV light supports the fight against Covid-19
President Trump caused outrage once more with his suggestion that ultraviolet (UV) light could help in the fight against Covid-19 patients. His record of defying science and stepping in the footsteps of the doctors who should lead the fight against the pandemic is not helpful. However, in this case he is right.
