Is What You Eat Damaging the Environment?

  • サマリー

  • Food loss and waste is considered a global problem of economic, environmental, and social impact. On a global scale, 1.3 billion tons of food in good condition is thrown away. On one hand, more than 800 million people in the world go hungry every day and, yet every day we throw away perfectly edible food. On the other hand, uneaten food is the largest component of municipal solid waste, which decomposes and rots releasing greenhouse gases, contributing to approximately 8 to 10% of all global emissions. Our current food production and consumption model is damaging us from every possible flank: it has a negative impact on human health and is the major driver of climate change, biodiversity loss, pollution, and drastic changes in land and water use. What we eat is undoubtedly related to human health and environmental sustainability, and because of that link, our diets have the potential to nurture both. Food loss and waste can improve food security and nutrition, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and lower pressure on water and land resources, which will contribute to improved productivity and economic growth. Join us to understand everything behind food loss and waste and to learn some of the things YOU can do to turn the trends and be part of the solution.
