SESSION 2: Sustainable Food Systems - the paradox between food waste & packaging waste
|
|
|
Food loss and waste is a major contributor to climate change and greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) globally, and yet it is often not discussed when talking about sustainability for a business. We must not lose sight of the key role packaging plays in not only the protection of a product but also for food safety. Inadequate packaging that results in wasted food defeats the whole purpose and is a much bigger waste of resources and environmental impacts.
This session will discuss finding the balance between meeting food waste targets, at the same time as achieving packaging waste targets. and designing Save Food Packaging, using the 5 principles of design, to offer the lowest environment impact possible.
