Follow inventor and Ecovative cofounder Eben Bayer as he traces his journey from pioneering mushroom-based packaging to launching North America’s bestselling alternative bacon—and toward an audacious new frontier: climate control as a global service. Blending material science, food innovation, and geoengineering, Bayer challenges us to rethink our role as architects of “Spaceship Earth” and imagine a future where mycelium reshapes food systems and shade itself becomes an infrastructure for cooling cities.
