Focusing on emissions from the energy sector is an obvious option when one looks to pinpoint an opportunity to reduce greenhouse gas and reduce our climate impacts. This is certainly true, but without applying the same action towards all industry, it will be near impossible to make the kinds of reductions we need to in order to meet the ambitious and necessary goals now in place. The food industry is responsible for 25-30% of global greenhouse emissions. Currently, there are no sweeping reforms set to come into effect, and not only that, but levels are expected to rise 30% more by 2050, that all important deadline. The implementation of smarter, greener technology in the industry itself, changing the way we eat, and finding new and innovative ways to reduce waste are all key parts of a plan that has yet to be put in place. Moving forward, it is prudent to ensure we are looking at all the paths we can change to honour our commitments made in Paris.Focusing on emissions from the energy sector is an obvious option when one looks to pinpoint an opportunity to reduce greenhouse gas and reduce our climate impacts.
