01  | Overview


Projections suggest that food biodiversity will significantly decrease by 2050, while automation technology will become more widely integrated with daily life. In the future, it is speculated that the world will be divided into two types of regions: private islands where familiar “natural food” systems prevail, and the mainland where manufacturing technology is the primary means of meeting human food needs. The scarcity of natural foods will contribute to further division and conflict between social classes. To address this issue, "Let's Eat" leverages emerging technologies to provide a new way to bring flavorful, nutritious food to the unemployed masses.





02 | Research 




Studies by Yale University, NOAA, and ABC News have found that coffee, bananas, fish, avocados, strawberries, and more are at risk of extinction.
