By 2050 we’ll need to feed two billion more people. How can we do that without overwhelming the planet?
Lab Lesson 1
As the prime connection between people and the planet, sustainable agriculture and food production have great potential to address many of our challenges and achieve our goals.
Food waste or food loss is food that is wasted, lost or uneaten. The causes of food waste or loss are numerous and occur at the stages of producing, processing, retailing and consuming. Global food loss and waste amount to between one-third and one-half of all food produced.
