THE FOOD SYSTEM NEEDS FIXING.
HERE'S WHY.
The food system - how we produce, distribute, consume, and discard food - has been incredibly succesful in providing people with cheap calories. But the system is harming human health, and planetary health. Technology and innovation is part of the solution.
IT'S HURTING PLANETARY HEALTH.
The food system accounts for 25-30% of total global greenhouse gas emissions, 70% of all freshwater use, 50% of habitable land use, and is the major cause of biodiversity loss on land and in the oceans.
It's hurting human health.
The food system is the major risk factor for disease, disability, and premature death -- 11M people die prematurely every year due to unhealthy dietary patterns.
IT'S WASTEFUL.
About 30% of all food grown gets wasted. In emerging markets, it's post-harvest food loss; in rich countries, food gets wasted at the supermarket and consumer level. Food waste accounts for 8-10% of global greenhouse gas emissions.
IT'S CAUSING OTHER PROBLEMS.
The food system is linked to many other issues too. It's not resilient. It triggers pandemics. It causes unneccessary suffering for billions of animals. And so on.
THESE ISSUES ARE SOLVABLE.
