 Reducing food loss and waste could reduce emissions
PARIS/ROME, 13 July. - (ANA) - This year's OECD-FAO Agricultural Outlook presents a new analysis that simulates the impact of cutting food losses along supply chains and reducing food waste at the retail and consumer levels by 2030. The results are promising.
Halving food loss and waste by 2030 has the potential to achieve remarkable global benefits: reducing agricultural GHG emissions by 4% and decreasing the number of undernourished people by 153 million.
