Inside The UK’s Vulnerable ‘Cold Chain’ Food Storage

Title: Inside The UK’s Vulnerable ‘Cold Chain’ Food Storage
Runtime: 3:11
Date posted: 14 days ago
Description: The UK relies heavily on what is called the “cold chain” storage: a network of 460 large warehouses that process and store half of all the nation’s food.

#ukfoodsecurity #coldchain #logistics

To keep your food fresh, these massive hubs use a staggering amount of electricity. In fact, they use the equivalent energy of Greater Manchester and Leeds combined.

During the heatwave in June these ageing refrigeration systems designed for a cooler climate were pushed to their absolute limits, desperately fighting to maintain the mandatory minus 20C.

As temperatures continue to climb, could the UK’s ability to supply fresh food be at risk?

Runtime: 10:23
Date posted: 14 days ago
Description: What if the desire to have biological children doesn't come with the desire to become a parent?

A growing number of men are turning to informal online sperm donation, allowing them to pass on their genetics without taking on the day-to-day responsibilities of raising a child. For some, it's a way to satisfy a powerful biological urge while avoiding the traditional path to parenthood.

Ben Kawaller explores this growing online marketplace after experiencing a sudden desire to have children, but not to raise them. As more people seek alternative routes to parenthood, he examines the motivations, ethical questions and human stories behind this little-known world.
