But what does this number mean for business? How does it break down across the value chain, from fork to farm? And where do major hotspots lie, in terms of not only emissions, but also water consumption, biodiversity loss, land-use change and consumers’ rising awareness? During this insightful session, Quantis and RSF will dig into the landscape of sustainability priorities for the food and beverage industry, working backward from the plate to the field, thanks to a multi–sectoral and multi-stakeholder approach. We’ll explore the practices with the greatest potential impact at key stages of the food value chain and discuss how to create a food system that optimizes both human and environmental health. And to help businesses get to work, we’ll share how to shape effective sustainability strategies, set meaningful goals, track progress and communicate about efforts in a credible and engaging way.
