Lab-grown palm oil could offer environmentally-friendly alternative_我的网站

一 |     New York City — What scientists are brewing inside a New York City lab could dramatically change the products people use every day.Shara Ticku, co-founder of C16 Biosciences, took CBS News inside the lab where the company grows an alternative to palm oil. Ticku said yeast plays a key role in their development process.   "Palm oil is responsible for making hand soaps, foam and cleanse," Ticku explained. "It makes the color stay on your lipstick and on your lips. And it helps create a smooth spreadable emulsion in peanut butter." 

     Palm oil is the most popular vegetable oil in the world, and more than 1.7 million tons were consumed in the U.S. in 2022, according to numbers from Statista.   But it can be as destructive as it is versatile. The World Wildlife Foundation says large-scale palm oil harvesting destroys rainforests and pollutes communities. It is found in more than half of packaged products on supermarket shelves, the conservation organization said.                  The Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil, a trade group for the palm oil industry, told CBS News in a statement that "while many exciting alternative palm oil solutions are being developed, curbing the immediate impacts of palm oil production will require solutions that are already scalable."C16 Biosciences would not give CBS News specifics about how much of its palm oil alternative it produces, the company said it  generates "metric tons" every week. It has also partnered with beauty companies and hopes to expand to food."Lab-grown variety may well save the day," climate economist Gernot Wagner told CBS News. "Big question, of course, is this sort of approach the one that will in fact be scalable, and that doesn't have its own negative, broader environmental societal costs?"For Ticku, the proof is in the process.                       "Our process today takes about six days from when we start the process until we extract the oil," Ticku said. "If you plant that today, it takes seven years.""That's the power of biology," she adds.

二 |     8月21日，在杭州大运河畔，拱墅“AI+文旅先行区”全域首发活动举行。

三 | 这是继国家人工智能应用中试基地（文化旅游）落地启航后，拱墅区融入省市创新大盘、抢抓人工智能发展机遇、站上国家级赛道的关键落子。如何激活大运河这一流动的文化遗产，AI是当下最具想象力的方式之一。

四 | 千年运河接入AI大脑“AI+文旅先行区”布局“六大行动”昨日，拱墅区《“AI＋文旅先行区”行动方案》正式发布，两大目标，剑指百亿级平台：到2026年底，形成一批可复制推广的文旅应用经验，全区Al+文旅产业集聚效应初步显现；到2028年底，建成20个高质量语料库，形成2个L1行业大模型、12个L2行业垂类模型，DeepSeek等国产大模型在文旅领域实现规模化应用，孵化一批具有国际影响力的“AI+文旅”示范项目，确立拱墅区在全国数字文旅领域的引领地位。“AI+文旅先行区”全域首发目标有了，具体该怎么干？循着“技术底座”到“产业生态”的路径，未来三年，拱墅将开展中试基地引领、文商旅体融合、产业联盟聚力、政策创新赋能、文化出海扬帆、文创产品精品六大行动。

五 | 中试基地引领行动：以国家人工智能应用中试基地（文化旅游）为核心引擎，拱墅将搭建算力支撑、数据汇聚、模型研发、场景验证一体化综合服务平台，打造集技术攻关、成果转化、产业孵化于一体的“Al+文旅”创新策源地。

六 | 文商旅体融合行动：通过文商旅体融合，让AI在真实场景中“跑起来”，建立文博文旅场景开放清单，依托大运河文化带，分批发布场景需求。产业联盟聚力行动：集结核心企业搭建全链条平台，构建“引进来+走出去”双向交流体系，建立常态化供需对接机制，推动产业生态持续繁荣。政策创新赋能行动：拱墅拿出“真金白银”给企业和人才：推出“算力券+Token券”组合支持，覆盖大模型训练到应用落地全流程；通过“大运英才”等政策大力引进高层次人才。文化出海扬帆行动：依托浙版传媒BookDNA和小五兄弟出海通等平台，强化大运河文化海外传播与数字资产保护，助力文化“新三样”高水平走出去。文创产品精品行动：围绕“运（运济千年）、河（河晏盛景）、风（风物承泽）”三大主题，推出“来杭州走大运”系列伴手礼，深化“拱宸有礼”品牌建设。“AI+文旅先行区”全域首发场景需求找到“解题人”让AI跑进文旅，场景落地是检验“AI+文旅”的试金石。昨日，大运河畔一场“AI+文旅先行区”全域首发活动，围绕文旅新命题的“赋能榜”“赛博榜”“沉浸榜”三榜齐发，三家科创企业现场揭榜，让第一批“AI+文旅”场景需求，有了“解题人”。杭州龙象文化创意有限公司负责人张健表示：“我们计划与拱墅区联合打造沉浸式文旅项目，依托《剑来》原著小说内容、动画、电视剧、电影、游戏等美术资产，结合拱墅文旅资源，打造聚集式的 ‘剑来’主题游览动线。也计划将‘剑来’沉浸式VR/MR大空间项目落地拱墅，实现‘人在剧中走’的沉浸式叙事体验。”建设“Al+文旅先行区”的底气，源于技术实力、文化家底与产业基础的同频共振。这里既是DeepSeek总部所在地，也是大运河文化精华汇聚之地，更是文创产业高地。据了解，拱墅全区现有23个文创园区（街区），集聚规上文化企业281家、规上文化“新三样”企业42家。2026年上半年，全区规上文化企业营收216.1亿元、增长18.2%。拱墅区相关负责人表示，未来，拱墅区将通过“AI+文旅先行区”建设，以AI为“连接器”和“放大器”，加速汇聚全球高端要素，构建“算力+数据+模型+场景”的完整生态，为杭州打造“人工智能创新发展第一城”贡献力量。
