Livestock is responsible for about 14.5% of global emissions and, if current trends continue, the global livestock industry will be using up almost half the world’s 1.5°C emissions budget by 2030. Join us to discuss how we divest, defund and regulate this industry.

The EU wastes more food than it imports, damaging EU food security amid the cost-of-living crisis, according to a recent Feedback EU report. Food waste also costs EU businesses and households an estimated €143 billion a year, and causes at least 6% of the EU’s total greenhouse gas emissions. Halving EU food waste by 2030 would save an estimated 4.7 million hectares of agricultural land. In this context, a growing chorus of organisations are calling for food waste policies regulations to tackle the issue at the speed needed. 43 European organisations are calling for the EU to set legally binding targets to halve EU food waste from farm to fork by 2030. Inspiring new policies to fight food waste are being proposed around Europe, which aim to move beyond the slow pace of change achieved by voluntary commitments.

Join us for talks and discussion from inspiring speakers, giving a comprehensive overview of why the EU (and countries around the world) need to set legally binding targets to halve food waste, and the policies we can use to accelerate action. Featuring inspiring speakers from Germany, Denmark, Spain and the UK – and with many transferable lessons to countries around the world.
