Lab-grown palm oil could offer environmentally-friendly alternative_我的网站

一 |     New York City — What scientists are brewing inside a New York City lab could dramatically change the products people use every day.Shara Ticku, co-founder of C16 Biosciences, took CBS News inside the lab where the company grows an alternative to palm oil. Ticku said yeast plays a key role in their development process.   "Palm oil is responsible for making hand soaps, foam and cleanse," Ticku explained. "It makes the color stay on your lipstick and on your lips. And it helps create a smooth spreadable emulsion in peanut butter." 

     Palm oil is the most popular vegetable oil in the world, and more than 1.7 million tons were consumed in the U.S. in 2022, according to numbers from Statista.   But it can be as destructive as it is versatile. The World Wildlife Foundation says large-scale palm oil harvesting destroys rainforests and pollutes communities. It is found in more than half of packaged products on supermarket shelves, the conservation organization said.                  The Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil, a trade group for the palm oil industry, told CBS News in a statement that "while many exciting alternative palm oil solutions are being developed, curbing the immediate impacts of palm oil production will require solutions that are already scalable."C16 Biosciences would not give CBS News specifics about how much of its palm oil alternative it produces, the company said it  generates "metric tons" every week. It has also partnered with beauty companies and hopes to expand to food."Lab-grown variety may well save the day," climate economist Gernot Wagner told CBS News. "Big question, of course, is this sort of approach the one that will in fact be scalable, and that doesn't have its own negative, broader environmental societal costs?"For Ticku, the proof is in the process.                       "Our process today takes about six days from when we start the process until we extract the oil," Ticku said. "If you plant that today, it takes seven years.""That's the power of biology," she adds.

。    週四上午，WNBA常規賽繼續進行，女武神主場對陣天空。女武神連戰連勝，反觀天空遭遇連敗打擊，此消彼長之下，女武神是役主場稱雄不在話下。

    　　女武神今季表現強勢，目前以23勝9負的戰績高居聯盟第二位，勝率高達71.9%。女武神今季擅長主場作戰，主場取得13勝4負的佳績是聯盟主場勝率最高的球隊。

三 | 近況方面，女武神處於四連勝的強勢中，上仗與火花交手，球隊打出團隊籃球，10名出場球員全部有得分，其中贊達拿絲妮和嘉比威廉絲等4人得分上雙，此番面對遭遇連敗打擊的天空，相信女武神可以輕鬆延續勝績。

四 | 陣容方面，K.史杜克斯遭遇腦震盪避戰。

五 |
    
    　　天空今季表現不佳，目前錄得12勝21負，不足四成的勝率排在聯盟倒數。近況方面，上仗與排名聯盟墊底的暴風交手，雖然卡美娜卡度素和迪莊娜卡寧頓有不錯的發揮，但球隊防守不穩，最終88比97輸球，至此，天空遭遇兩連敗打擊，而且這是她們過去4場的第3場敗仗，士氣相當低落。

六 | 另外，天空今季客場戰鬥力不足，只錄得4勝12負的劣績，此番出征，她們敗局已定。人手方面，迪堅斯和悉妮泰萊傷缺。
