Let's have a chat (Discussions In English)

This podcast goes to my students and podcast listeners.

The greatest happiness in life is to support others in their development and evolution. 

The greatest reward is to know that you can help someone move towards growth.

The greatest gift in life is to be selfless and trust your gut instinct.

I am so excited to have you, my students, benefit from the processes I offer, and I am so lucky to have stumbled upon this trajectory of life.

Enjoy the podcast; it's not about me, it's about you. Yes, you who are reading the text now, yup, YOU. 

Be well and feel good!

陕西汉中有一道传统美食，梆梆面。There is a traditional delicacy in Hanzhong, Shaanxi province, Bang-bang noodle.
它选用麦子磨成的上等面粉精制而成。It is made of fine flour ground from wheat.
在古代、人们一般在早上三、四点钟时、就要在街边售卖，而且在制作的时候、伴有梆梆的敲击声，所以大家就称它为“梆梆面”。In ancient times, it was usually sell on the street at three or four o 'clock in the morning, and it was made with a bang-bang sound, so people called it "bang-bang noodle".
因此，这个面引出了一个特别有意思的象声字，如下图所示：Interestingly, the noodles have created a distinctive phonetic character, as shown below:

#10 (B2) Villes et transformations

There are many types of dairy alternatives on the market today, often made from things like nuts and soybeans.

But have you heard they're now making butter from air?

A US startup called Savor is working on a range of dairy alternatives made using something that exists all around us: carbon.

Fats are made from chains of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms. Savor's process involves taking carbon — from, say, carbon dioxide — and adding heat and hydrogen to create chains that are combined with oxygen from air.

This results in fat molecules, like the ones found in dairy and other animal products.

Now, regular butter is about 80% fat — the rest is mostly water. So to make butter from its synthetic fat, Savor just adds water, as well as an emulsifier that keeps the liquids from separating, and rosemary oil for flavor and beta carotene for color.

What does it taste like?

"I couldn't believe I wasn't eating real butter," Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates wrote in a blog post earlier this year. Gates is one of Savor's investors.

He wrote that "it tastes really good — like the real thing, because chemically it is."

Savor has already run informal taste tests with small groups of people, and is working to get regulatory approval for its product in the US.

But why butter?

A 2021 study estimated that food production makes up about 35% of the world's greenhouse gas emissions — and Savor estimates that about 7% of greenhouse gas emissions are just from producing fat.

But Savor's process, Gates wrote, doesn't release any greenhouse gases. He added that it uses no farmland and "less than a thousandth of the water that traditional agriculture does."

Savor is focusing on butter to start with partly because its high price point makes it easier to compete on cost. But the startup later hopes to develop other products like milk, ice cream, cheese — even meat.
