La chaîne de production alimentaire

Cela signifie que les consommateurs finaux sont complètement déconnectés de la source et que la chaîne de production alimentaire ne cesse de s'allonger et de se fragmenter. Quand tu cherches à mieux comprendre le gaspillage alimentaire, il est essentiel de comprendre aussi d'où vient originellement la nourriture. Une étude récente a mis un chiffre sur le montant dépensé pour la production de nourriture qui ne sera finalement pas mangée. Tous ces délicieux produits, encore consommables, qui finissent à la poubelle coûte... 1200 milliards de dollars (BCG, 2018). Difficile à se représenter, n'est-ce pas ? Alors, d'où vient la nourriture, et quel chemin parcourt-elle de la ferme à l'assiette ?

Easy, healthy breakfast & 6 flavor ideas! Cradle to Cradle - Sustainability Guide. Cradle to Cradle (C2C) is about seeing garbage as an eternal resource and doing the right thing from the beginning.

Cradle to Cradle - Sustainability Guide

It is about making community and product development function in the same way as a healthy ecological system where all resources are used effectively, and in a cyclical way (as opposed to the current linear system that can be better described as a Cradle to Grave system). In order for the C2C system to be sustainable, all materials in products need to be kept clean and should not be mixed. Alternatively, there needs to be a separation system in place that can be applied after the item is discarded. C2C methodology builds on the concept that “waste = food”, meaning that what is considered waste can become food in a new product cycle. This methodology was developed by professor Michael Braungart and William McDonough in 2001 and it has been used as inspiration in products, buildings and production systems. Biological cycle.

Are food preservatives bad for you? - Eleanor Nelsen

Electric refrigerators and manufacturing techniques like vacuum-sealing go even further in expanding the range of foods we can preserve. But people have been preserving food for thousands of years, using a variety of creative methods. One of the oldest food preservation techniques is pickling, which, as the lesson describes, discourages the growth of bacteria by increasing a food’s acidity. Most modern pickles are made using acetic acid, more commonly known as vinegar. But traditional pickles were produced via fermentation, using lactobacillus to convert sugars to lactic acid. Many fermented foods use fungi like yeasts, which occur naturally in the environment, and inhibit the growth of bacteria by converting sugars to alcohol.
