Future of Food and Google Science Fair

The video discusses innovative solutions to future food challenges, such as mycoprotein, aquaponics, and vertical farming. It highlights the potential of these technologies to address issues like land scarcity and resource efficiency. The video is sponsored by Google Science Fair, encouraging young innovators to participate and solve global problems.

What is the main goal of the Google Science Fair?

• To teach cooking skills

• To promote sports among teenagers

• To encourage young people to share innovative ideas

• To provide scholarships for college

What is mycoprotein primarily made from?

• Soy

• Beans

• Jackfruit

• Fungus

What is a significant environmental benefit of producing mycoprotein?

• It uses more land than traditional meat

• It has less protein than tofu

• It requires more water than meat production

• It generates 90% less carbon dioxide

What is aquaponics?

• A method of growing plants in soil

• A way to grow plants using only sunlight

• A technique of raising fish in large ponds

• A system combining fish farming and plant cultivation

What is a challenge associated with aquaponics?

• It requires a lot of soil

• Balancing nutrients can be difficult

• It is only suitable for outdoor farming

• It uses a lot of pesticides

What is vertical farming?

• Growing plants in horizontal rows

• Using only natural sunlight for farming

• Growing plants in underground tunnels

• Cultivating plants in stacked layers

What is a major drawback of vertical farming?

• It uses less land

• It is very eco-friendly

• It requires a lot of electricity

• It is cheaper than traditional farming

What is one of the prizes for winning the Google Science Fair?

• A personal computer

• A lifetime supply of books

• A new car

• A trip to the Galapagos Islands

How many people can work together on a Google Science Fair project?

• Only one person

• Up to two people

• Up to three people

• Up to four people

What is the deadline to submit a project for the Google Science Fair?

• January 1, 2019

• December 12, 2018

• February 14, 2019

• November 30, 2018
