Misbehaviour dominates GHG emissions from food loss and waste - Nature Climate Change Food loss and waste (FLW) is a major source of global GHG emissions, yet its drivers and mitigation potential remain understudied. By attributing FLW to techno-economic and misbehavioural drivers, this study shows misbehaviour dominates FLW emissions and offers substantial mitigation potential.

Food loss & waste (FLW) contributes 20% of global GHG emissions. Surplus production and overconsumption drive 60% of FLW-related emissions globally, with meat consumption accounting for 50% of these (even more in high-income countries): doi.org/10.1038/s415... #FoodWaste #Meat #Emissions #Climate

What will you use? A food waste kitchen caddy is filled with different packaging that can be reused to line it, including an online shopping packet, toilet roll packet, supermarket bag, crisps multipack, takeaway bag, biodegradable bags and bread bag. There is also a bag of liners stating, plastic or biodegradable liners.

We’re still waiting to find out if we’ll receive funding to provide additional liners. In the meantime, you'll either need to find something else or not use a liner.

You can buy caddy liners from most shops or you can reuse any packaging sitting around at home.

[8/8] Cette situation révèle une contradiction majeure. Dans un pays confronté à la sécheresse, l’eau est à la fois rare et gaspillée indirectement. Le modèle agricole intensif fragilise ainsi la sécurité hydrique et les équilibres territoriaux. #geography #waterstress #agriculture #foodwaste

En Espagne, des milliers de tonnes de fruits et légumes ne sont jamais récoltées et pourrissent dans les champs Des scientifiques estiment qu'entre 2018 et 2024, près d'un demi-million de tonnes de produits agricoles espagnols ont été écartés des circuits commerciaux.

[1/8] Des chercheurs espagnols analysent le gaspillage agricole en Espagne à partir des données du FEGA. Leur étude montre que des récoltes sont abandonnées malgré une forte pénurie d’eau, révélant un décalage entre gestion des ressources et logique économique. #geography #agriculture #foodwaste

AI Beyond Business: Digital Rights, NGOs, and the Fight Against Food Waste How Artificial Intelligence Is Changing the Work of NGOs AI is increasingly shaping the work of non-profits and civil society groups. In this episode we speak with experts from Access Now about how NGOs are using AI to strengthen cybersecurity analysis and digital protection, while also navigating serious concerns around privacy, misinformation, and the safe handling of sensitive data. Using AI to Reduce Waste in the Global Food Supply Food waste remains a major global challenge, often caused by poor coordination across the supply chain. We speak with the founder of WadyAI, a platform using artificial intelligence to help suppliers and restaurants digitise orders, analyse demand, and order food more accurately - with the goal of reducing waste and improving efficiency in the food system. The programme is presented by Ania Lichtarowicz.

Truckloads of food are being wasted because computers won’t approve them sciencedaily.com Modern food systems may look stable on the surface, but they are increasingly dependent on digital systems that can quietly become a major point of failure. Today, food must be “recognized” by databases and automated platforms to be transported, sold, or even released, meaning that if systems go down, food can effectively become unusable—even when it’s physically available.
