On-line panel event and Q&A.
Our food system is wasteful and inefficient. Our expert panel will answer your questions and discuss what can be done. Topics will include:
- How we can change our diets to waste less.
- How and why food is wasted, both by consumers and in the supply chain.
- Whether waste food should be used as animal feed on an industrial scale.
- Why our food systems are fundamentally unsustainable, and how they should be circular, not linear, to use fewer resources and create less waste and pollution.
You’ll be invited to submit your questions for our panel when you register to attend. We’re keen to know what you’d like to know!
