Il cambiamento climatico è servito: che conseguenze a tavola?
Tra i terribili effetti del riscaldamento globale non c’è soltanto lo scioglimento dei ghiacciai, o il rischio di estinzione per molte specie animali, ma anche un sostanziale e concreto impoverimento della nostra tavola.

Why what we eat is crucial to the climate change question
Our food - from what we eat to how it is grown - accounts for more carbon emissions than transport and yet staple crops will be hit hard by global warming.

Our food system is at risk of crossing 'environmental limits' - here's how to ease the pressure
Staying within planetary environmental limits will require a global shift towards healthy and more plant-based diets, halving food loss and waste, and improving farming practices and technologies. That’s what a team of international researchers found in a new study published in the journal Nature.

Quanto inquiniamo per nutrirci?
Un cittadino europeo ogni anno per nutrirsi produce oltre una tonnellata di biossido di carbonio, ossia CO2. È all’incirca la stessa quantità che si può attribuire a una persona che viaggi in auto per 6.000 chilometri. Il calcolo è stato effettuato da una gruppo di ricercatori di istituti finlandesi, austriaci, tedeschi e australiani in uno studio pubblicato con il quale hanno trasformato tutte le componenti della produzione di alimenti, dal consumo di suolo all’uso di fertilizzanti, in termini di emissioni di anidride carbonica.

Cibo e sostenibilità. La nuova tavola (a impatto zero)
Nutrire in modo sostenibile i 10 miliardi di persone che popoleranno la Terra nel 2050, senza danneggiare o sfruttare in modo eccessivo il pianeta, è possibile, ma a patto di cambiare cosa mangiamo e come lo produciamo.

The unbelievably simple way to cut greenhouse gas emissions from the food sector in half

This is how to sustainably feed 10 billion people by 2050
There is a big shortfall between the amount of food we produce today and the amount needed to feed everyone in 2050. There will be nearly 10 billion people on Earth by 2050—about 3 billion more mouths to feed than there were in 2010. As incomes rise, people will increasingly consume more resource-intensive, animal-based foods. At the same time, we urgently need to cut greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from agricultural production and stop conversion of remaining forests to agricultural land.
