This feature examines the environmental sustainability and social justice implications of sourdough bread compared to commercial yeast-based bread. The focus is on the production processes of commercial yeast and the petrochemical industry's involvement in ammonia synthesis, which contributes to yeast production. The paper then discusses the benefits of sourdough bread as an environmentally friendly and socially just alternative to conventional yeast-based bread.
