It can keep up to 100 categories of products and store up to 50,000 items every one to 1½ months. The London warehouse comes a few weeks after the company leased its first warehouse of about 4,150 square feet in Texas, U.S. The new warehouse will improve access to inventory and augment customer services in the European region, Yoshitsu Co. Ltd Principal Executive Officer Mei Kanayama said of the recent development. "With the warehouse operation in London, we expect to effectively fulfill the increasing demand in the European markets for our products, boost our revenue in the region and improve our operating efficiency," Kanayama said.

CO2oons

November 15, 2022 - Co-Founder & CEO, David Villaseñor, and Co-Founder Matteo Petrelli, today announced the launch of CO2oons, a new company born with the goal of changing the way people think about, and engage, with the climate change conversation. CO2oons will partner and collaborate with the world’s top brands to create consumer products, educational initiatives, films, serial content and events all centered around the company’s original IP: a population of creatures living in Earth’s near future, that have evolved out of the effects of climate change and are now the only living things on the planet. David Villaseñor, Co-Founder & CEO said: “The core of our idea is this: we will use entertainment to build a mainstream, recognized global brand in the climate arena that will inspire and connect with audiences in a way that only beloved characters and stories are able to do. We must find new and innovative ways to attract people to become involved in the fight to save our planet, and we believe that making the conversation entertaining could be an important part of the solution.” CO2oons’ leadership team includes: Co-founder & CEO David Villaseñor, also serving as Director of Operations of Earth Uprising International, a global youth-led climate justice organization founded by his daughter, internationally recognized teenage climate activist Alexandria Villaseñor; Pete Johnson, Co-founder & Chief Creative and Marketing Officer, most recently Global Head of Creative at The LEGO Agency; Ahmet Can, Co-founder & COO, 20-year veteran of the start-up world having scaled several global organizations with three successful exits; and Matteo Petrelli, Co-founder and CEO of Exeest, a leading B2B platform for licensing/purchasing of film and TV rights. The announcement was made from the stage during the CO2oons hosted panel, “ Blockchain, Climate, Corporations and Regulations” at The Earth Day Pavillion during the COP27 conference. CO2oons brought together panelists Rev. Lennox Yearwood Jr, CEO of Hip Hop Caucus and Senior Advisor of Bloomberg Philanthropies; AY Young, climate activist, producer, singer and entrepreneur; and Miles Austin, CEO of Hyphen Global AG, Managing Director of CPG Capital to discuss the intersections, the misconceptions, the upcoming regulations and the potential possibilities Web3 can bring to climate change. Panelists shared perspectives on the role of Fortune 500 companies and what they could be doing to help fight the climate crisis, the real impacts that Blockchains have and will have in the environmental space, and the role that entertainment and a more engaging way of communicating can have. CO2oons is hosting a second panel on November 17th at 11am GMT+2 at the Earth Day Pavillion: “CO2oons! Bringing the Youth Climate Movement to Web3”, featuring Steve Wallace, Official Institutions & Advocacy, Global Lead at Polygon Technology; Alexandria Villasenōr, Co-founder of U.S. Climate Strikes and Earth Uprising International; Seb Lindner, co-founder of Web3daily; and Matteo Petrelli, co-founder of Co2oons.

With CO2oons, we’ve created an IP that will first launch as an NFT collection and then evolve to become much more. We will partner and collaborate with the world’s top brands to create consumer products, educational initiatives, films, serial content, events and much more. We want our creatures everywhere, raising awareness and inspiring action not just from NGOs, activists and a small group of corporations, but from the largest audience possible. We believe that by making the conversation fun we will be able to reach a broader audience and to capture the interest of more people, in a more personal and active way.

Extreme Weather Puts Strain on Dairy Cows Across The Globe, Is Plant-Milk the Answer?

MarketJar

Extreme weather conditions across the globe are putting a strain on dairy cows, drying up milk production and withering crops that feed the cattle. Heat and drought in India, Australia and France are threatening long-term global dairy supply, including everything from butter to baby formula. Due to extreme weather brought on by climate change, some of the world's largest milk-producing regions are becoming less hospitable to these animals: Cows produce less milk when stressed by high temperatures, and arid conditions and storms exacerbate the problem by withering or destroying the grass and other crops they eat. In fact, some scientists predict that climate change will cost the dairy industry around $2.2 billion per year by the end of the century in the United States alone. According to another study, if greenhouse gas emissions remain high, the dairy and meat industries could lose $39.94 billion per year to heat stress by that same date. Fortunately, new and innovative alternative milk products are being developed for the market and consumers have been responding well. Plant-Based Milk Market Continues to Gain Steam Alternative dairy and plant-based milk are not new, but they have continued to rise in popularity over the years. In 2022, the plant-based milk market reached $38.9 billion after doubling in the previous five years. And over the next decade, the global market is expected to quadruple. As the market grows and evolves, new plant-based milk formulations are replacing old ones as consumer favorites. Soy milk was popular at first, but it gave way to almond milk. Now, oat milk is rapidly gaining popularity. Even as oat milk becomes more popular, a new plant-based milk trend is emerging: sesame milk. Some of the key factors behind the market's growth are the rising prevalence of dairy intolerance, as well as growing concern for the planet. Add to that increasing consumer awareness of the health of animals, and it’s easy to see why the plant-based milk industry is expected to continue rising in the coming years. Of course, alternatives like almond milk still take a toll on the planet due to high water usage and damage to bee populations. Luckily, there are new alternatives like sesame milk, which uses 95% less water compared to almond milk and thrives in arid climates around the globe, from South America to Africa to Asia. As consumers become more environmentally conscious, The Planting Hope Company Inc. (TSXV:MYLK) (OTCQB:MYLKF ) is gaining attention. The Planting Hope Company Inc. (TSXV:MYLK) (OTCQB:MYLKF) creates, introduces, and grows distinctively innovative plant-based and environmentally responsible food and beverage brands. Planting Hope 's innovative and award-winning products meet critical needs in the exploding plant-based food and beverage market. This rapidly growing company is focused on producing plant-based milk made from sustainable and highly nutritious sesame. The company's Sesame Milk has received numerous awards and nominations. Hope and Sesame Sesamemilk is just one of four fast-growing food and beverage brands owned by this company. The Planting Hope brand family includes RightRice® Veggie Rice, Mozaics(™) Real Veggie Chips, and Veggicopia® Veggie Snacks in addition to Hope and Sesame® (Sesamemilk and Barista Blend Sesamemilk). Planting Hope is a women-managed and women-led business with a focus on nutrition, sustainability, and diversity, founded by seasoned food industry entrepreneurs. Planting Hope Launches RightRice in Walmart Stores Across Canada The Planting Hope Company has already established and is expanding its relationships with major North American retailers and distributors, with products available in 8,500+ grocery stores and 50,000+ distribution points, including Whole Foods, Kroger, Sprouts Farmers Market, and others. The company has continued to execute its business plan since the beginning of 2022, expanding its core products in key channels as well as setting up new products and distribution that will reach scale in 2023. Earlier today, Planting Hope announced that its RightRice® Veggie Rice brand is launching in 180 Walmart stores across Canada, representing 720 new total distribution points (TDP). This marks the second major product launch in the Canadian market in the fourth quarter. “Walmart is an exciting place to launch RightRice in dual-language packaging to Canadian customers,” said Matt LeBeau, founder and CEO of LeBeau Excel Ltd., the company’s retail broker of record in Canada. “Walmart is increasing its focus on delivering plant-based and sustainable products to its shoppers, given increasing demand from Canadians for more nutritious and delicious food and beverages, and RightRice is a strong fit for that mission.” Planting Hope also recently announced the addition of RightRice® Veggie Rice and Hope and Sesame® Sesamemilk to Dot Foods, Inc.'s product line. The biggest foodservice re-distributor in North America, Dot, will soon stock award-winning Hope and Sesame® Barista Blend Sesamemilk in 32 oz shelf-stable cartons and Original RightRice® Veggie Rice in bulk 20lb bags. Hope and Sesame Sesamemilk Now Available in 382 Loblaw Stores in Canada in Dual-Language Packaging On November 8, Planting Hope launched its Hope and Sesame® Sesamemilk line in Canada with Loblaw Companies Limited, Canada's top grocery retailer. Hope and Sesame® Sesamemilk will be available in 382 Loblaw stores across Canada in November 2022 in Canadian-compliant dual-language packaging under multiple banners, including Loblaws, Fortinos, and Provigo. Packaged in shelf-stable 946ml (32oz) cartons in three flavors (Barista Blend Sesamemilk, Original Sesamemilk, and Unsweetened Original Sesamemilk), Hope and Sesame® Sesamemilk is now available in the plant milk section of Loblaw stores. Hope and Sesame® Sesamemilk offers Canadians delicious plant-based milk with vitamin, mineral, and protein content comparable to dairy milk.

World Champion Fantasy Signs First-Ever Strategic Esports Data and Streaming Partnership with Edgio

World Champion Fantasy

World Champion Fantasy (WCF), the world’s first online fantasy esports platform, announced a strategic esports partnership with Edgio to power the upcoming release of PlayerX. The exclusive partnership will leverage Edgio’s industry-leading Uplynk platform that enables World Champion Fantasy to go to market quickly with PlayerX and scale operations with a fraction of the resources. For the first time, streaming video will be synced with player data (e.g., kills, headshots) from esports tournaments. Player and team statistics will automatically be tagged, cataloged, and uploaded as searchable video clips -- allowing fans on World Champion Fantasy’s upcoming platform, PlayerX, to stream, promote, and share esports highlights as they happen. World Champion Fantasy’s PlayerX is an innovative platform combining elements of traditional fantasy sports with esports. PlayerX allows fans to assemble a dream team of esport athletes and then live stream games that simultaneously display insights and stats. PlayerX elevates the traditional fantasy sports experience by enabling fans to customize interactive avatars and theme music, providing expansive chat capabilities, and more. Another appealing feature is that PlayerX subscribers no longer have to search multiple platforms for the most up-to-date information and highlights of their favorite streamers and athletes. These features are available on one non-gambling platform suitable for all ages. “This is a big deal for the future of fantasy sports -- and Edgio understood this vision. This partnership puts the fantasy sports user experience front and center, utilizing data, engagement insights, and streaming capabilities to deliver dynamic and engaging fan experiences,” said Mike Vela, CEO of World Champion Fantasy. “The fantasy experience is one-dimensional, with users simply interacting with text and numbers. By incorporating real-time stats and video into our PlayerX platform, users can flex and troll their opponents, search and watch the best clips and share highlights with their friends and followers.” “Working with World Champion Fantasy, Edgio will provide our industry-leading technology and streaming solutions to one of the fastest growing and influential market segments - esports. This collaboration will help us better understand the needs and behaviors of our esports streaming customers and use those insights to improve our products and services,” said Bob Lyons, Edgio CEO. WCF’s PlayerX will officially launch fantasy games for Valorant and CSGO in Q1 2023, and later in 2023 will incorporate League of Legends and Call of Duty.
