Very good question. Usually I tend to recommend Giving Green-recommended charities such as the Good Food Institute, but that doesn’t seem to match your criteria.
But, if I can indulge in some self-promotion, we at the National Observatory on Insect Farming are working on identifying the limits of a new industry that tends to have significant climate impacts. In a recent study, insect meal has been shown to have 5 to 13 times the climate impact of soybean meal. There are also significant biodiversity concerns were genetically selected insects to escape.
Of course, we’re new and haven’t been vetted by Giving green or similar orgs, but I thought I’d share.
