Feeding the world's everincreasing population is a growing challenge, pushing the limits of what the planet can sustain. By 2050, the demand for food will be 70 to 100 percent higher.

New sustainable ways are needed to supply the world's population. RAZOR’s Jo Colan is in Devon to meet a family of mussel farmers who believe they have part of the answer.

Mussels are now considered one of the ultimate superfoods, being high in protein, low in calories and rich in vitamins and minerals. They also capture and trap carbon as their shells grow through a process known as biomineralization. Not only is this great for marine ecosystems, but when compared to other sources of protein, their carbon footprint is negligible.
