Reducing food waste would mitigate
climate change, study shows
April 7, 2016
Reducing food waste around the world would help curb
emissions of planet-warming gases, lessening some of the
impacts of climate change such as more extreme weather
and rising seas, scientists said on Thursday.
Up to 14% of emissions from agriculture in 2050 could
be avoided by managing food use and distribution better,
according to a new study from the Potsdam Institute for
Climate Impact Research (PIK). “Agriculture is a major
driver of climate change, accounting for more than 20% of
overall global greenhouse gas emissions in 2010,” said
co-author Prajal Pradhan. “Avoiding food loss and waste would
therefore avoid unnecessary greenhouse gas emissions and
help mitigate climate change.”
Between 30 and 40% of food produced around the world
is never eaten, because it is spoiled after harvest and during
transportation, or thrown away by shops and consumers. The
share of food wasted is expected to increase drastically if emerging economies like China and India adopt western food
habits, including a shift to eating more meat, the researchers
warned. Richer countries tend to consume more food than is
healthy or simply waste it, they noted.
As poorer countries develop and the world’s population
grows, emissions associated with food waste could soar
from 0.5 gigatonnes (GT) of carbon dioxide equivalent per
year to between 1.9 and 2.5 GT annually by mid-century,
showed the study published in the Environmental Science &
Technology journal. It is widely argued that cutting food waste
and distributing the world’s surplus food where it is needed
could help tackle hunger in places that do not have enough -
especially given that land to expand farming is limited.
But Jürgen Kropp, another of the study’s co-authors and
PIK’s head of climate change and development, told the
Thomson Reuters Foundation the potential for food waste
curbs to reduce emissions should be given more attention.
“It is not a strategy of governments at the moment,” he said.

GLOBALISATION, HUMANISM, MODERNITY:
IN SEARCH OF EQUILIBRIUM
Monica Grigorescu*
Our time has proved to be amazingly effective in gropingly building up
a civilization which it has proved amazingly inept at putting in order.
(André Maliaux)
After so many crises which have followed each other in as many
areas, we ought to admit that industrial and technological civilization
is creating as many problems as it is capable of resolving. The myth of
progress, one of the founding myths of our civilization, also appears to
have collapsed as a myth. The development of modern society, spectacular
as it is from an economist’s angle of vision, has not been able to society;
stop a slide into human and moral underdevelopment. A deterioration of
quality in relation to quantity makes only those things that can be actually
measured appear to be real; unfortunately, things like poetry, suffering,
or love are hardly quantifiable.
Towards the end of his eventful life, Jean Monnet, a remarkable figure of the twentieth century, reasoned that, had he been able to start all over again, he would have begun with culture. A founding father of what was later to become the European Union, he expressed that belated belief in the pre-eminent role of culture as a part of greater civilization after he had tried for several decades to build a prosperous Europe in economic terms in the aftermath of a devastating war.
