Into the decisive decade

2020 is here – described by some as the beginning of ‘the decisive decade’ for the climate emergency. Will the next 10 years see leaders worldwide listen to the truth of the climate emergency – and act?

2020 is also the year Feedback enters our second decade campaigning to end waste and create a healthy and sustainable food system, and we are more keenly aware of our responsibility than ever.

There’s no point playing down the perils we face. We see the work to be done – but we also see the huge pay-offs that could be achieved. Good food – good for us and for the planet. Fair food prices and livelihoods for the people who produce it. Ending needless waste and destruction of nature.

As an organisation, we believe in being bold. And if ever there was one, 2020 is a year to be truly bold, with the global climate negotiations coming to Glasgow in December 2020. There is an opportunity – one that may not repeat itself – to put food front and centre of our global response to the climate emergency.
