The document discusses food waste facts from the UK. It states that the average UK family throws away about 24 meals or £60 of food per month, totaling over 4 million tons of food waste per year. Around half of all food waste in the UK comes from households, and the two main reasons for this are cooking too much food or not using food before its expiration date. If this wasted food was instead eaten, it would be equivalent to taking 1 in 4 cars off the road in terms of environmental impact. The document also discusses the impacts of food waste globally and potential solutions to reducing waste.

Great Report on the status of British Food production - complied by some of the UK Thought leaders on the Global Food System
In Conclusion :
The quote fro Prof Tim Benton - Head of Strategic Research University of Leeds
"A globalised food system drives efficiency, scale and specialisation and, in turn, drives diets towards the commodity crops – calorie rich but nutrient poor – with its implications for health. Increased productivity has led to the degradation of soils, loss of biodiversity, and homogenisation of the countryside. Increased imports means that often, in return for cheaper food, we ‘export’ the environmental costs of production. Furthermore, over-reliance on global markets has led to a situation in which there are some inherent systemic risks in the system the magnitude of which are only just coming to light."
• This will protect our farming economy, our environment, and lead to more clarity about where our food comes from.
• The UK can never – and should not aim to be – self- sufficient in food production.
Conclusion
• However, it makes sense to hedge our bets and build a more resilient system, by growing our local production to provide more food, and more diverse food, to the nation.
Livestock and Climate Change - Tara Garnett, Food Climate Research Network, U...guycollender
This document summarizes livestock and dairy production's significant contributions to greenhouse gas emissions and discusses options for reducing emissions. Livestock accounts for around 15-18% of global GHG emissions. Meeting projected global demand increases in meat and dairy by 2050 without changes would be unsustainable. Technological improvements could reduce emissions by 13-30% by 2020 and 50% by 2050, but reductions in consumption are also needed to see an actual decrease in emissions. To meet UK climate targets, livestock consumption may need to be cut by 11-36% by 2020 and 48% by 2050. Approaches that focus on ecological constraints and meeting needs rather than demand are recommended.
The document discusses the challenges facing global agriculture and the need for more sustainable practices. It notes increasing pressures like population growth, water scarcity, and climate change. While some progress has been made in reducing UK greenhouse gas emissions, more action is needed to achieve sustainability goals. The agriculture and food industries must balance producing more food with finite natural resources. Metrics and reporting around sustainability need to improve to better manage impacts on the environment, economy, and society. Moving forward, businesses should integrate sustainable thinking across all operations and demonstrate these practices to stakeholders.
This report provides an overview of food waste issues globally and within the UK. It finds that over a third of global food production is wasted, with similar proportions wasted in developing and developed nations through different causes. In developing countries most waste occurs pre-and post-harvest due to lack of infrastructure and technology. In the UK, 15 million tonnes of food are wasted annually, with nearly three quarters occurring at the consumer stage, especially of perishable products. Reducing food waste across supply chains is important for improving global food security.
This document discusses the environmental impacts of livestock agriculture and meat consumption, and argues that China can play a key role in addressing this issue. Livestock agriculture contributes 14.5% of global greenhouse gas emissions, more than all transportation combined. Demand for meat and dairy is rising rapidly due to population and income growth. Reducing meat consumption could significantly lower emissions and help keep global warming below 2 degrees Celsius. China is well positioned to lead on this issue given its large population and role as the world's top consumer of pork and second largest consumer of meat overall.
Reducing meat consumption can benefit China from a health resource , climate and geopolitical perspective.Over 50% of the population is suffering from environmental-related illnesses many of which are made worse by higher meat consumption , such as heart disease , obesity , cancer and diabetes , China having 20% of population but 33% of the worlds diabetics - Child obesity has quadrupled in a single generation . The rising health care costs associated with these emerging crisis will be significant

This document summarizes a presentation given by Professor Gerry Boyle at the Ballyhoura Rural Development Conference on the future of rural areas and food systems to 2031. It outlines the challenges of meeting increasing global food demand while addressing climate change and resource scarcity. It then discusses opportunities for Irish and Ballyhoura food producers to develop more sustainable and innovative systems, including supporting small local food businesses linked to environment and tourism initiatives.
This report is part of a series of discussion and research pieces that explore the challenges of sustainable diets as a means to address the stalemate in debate over the role of meat consumption in mitigating climate change.
1) Recent research shows that the production of food, especially meat, contributes more greenhouse gases than transportation or industry.
2) Livestock, particularly cattle, are major contributors to climate change through methane emissions from digestion and manure, as well as greenhouse gases from deforestation to create grazing land and growing feed crops.
3) Shifting diets to include less meat and reducing food waste could significantly decrease greenhouse gas emissions from the food system.
This document discusses the concept of food miles and the debate surrounding their environmental and economic impacts. It begins by providing background on climate change and the role of transportation in contributing to greenhouse gas emissions. It then defines food miles as the distance food travels from farm to plate, and discusses their measurement and the controversy around only considering transportation impacts. The document notes that reducing UK food imports could devastate economies of developing countries that rely on agricultural exports. It concludes by recommending a broader assessment of environmental impacts across the entire food lifecycle.
1) Representatives from universities, politicians, and organizations gathered to take action against the alarming amount of global food waste, estimated to be around 50% of all food produced.
2) Studies show that 40% of US food is thrown away, while each person in Western nations consumes over 1400 excess calories daily, totaling 150 trillion extra calories a year.
3) This declaration aims to reduce food waste 50% by 2025 through partnerships between stakeholders and policies supporting sustainable agriculture.

This document summarizes a report on pigs and the environment commissioned by BPEX. It finds that while pork production has less environmental impact than beef or lamb per unit, it still significantly contributes to climate change and other issues like water pollution. The report recommends that BPEX focus on ensuring pork production and consumption is environmentally sustainable from a domestic supply. It suggests BPEX develop a "Pork Roadmap" similar to plans for other meats to enhance sustainability, expand research on other impacts beyond greenhouse gases, and help farmers reduce impacts through best practices. The report analyzes various environmental issues linked to pork including climate change, water use, biodiversity loss, and more.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

3. What do we know?* At present the system of growing, distributing and eating food is hugely costly to the environment, to our health and to our economy. * The multiples have no real incentive in delivering healthy, affordable, unprocessed and low carbon food. They have every interest in delivering highly processed mass-produced food, and their infrastructure mitigates against participating in short supply chains or engaging with the local economy. * Fife has the highest per-capita of childhood obesity in the UK. In the UK childhood obesity rates have more than trebled in the past twenty years and if they continue at this rate it is predicted that more than half of British children will be obese by 2020. *Stuffed & Starved phenomenon: 6 billion rural poor likely to be one of the starved. Poor urban dweller you are likely to be one of the stuffed. The global food system doesn’t work.* The food system in the UK whilst seemingly monolithic is fragile and dysfunctional.
