Impacts of feeding less food-competing feedstuffs to livestock on global food system sustainability
Increasing efficiency in livestock production and reducing the share of animal products in human consumption are two strategies to curb the adverse environmental impacts of the livestock sector. Here, we explore the room for sustainable livestock production by modelling the impacts and constraints of a third strategy in which livestock feed components that compete with direct human food crop pr...

متن کاملFood security and food sustainability: reformulating the debate
The notion of food security has an important history as a key concept for 20th-century policymakers. Two overarching perspectives on food security are identified.

The other is an emerging perspective, more social and ecological, accepting the need to address a complex array of problems, not just production. Th...
متن کاملUnderstanding the Sustainability of Retail Food Recovery
In this paper we study the simultaneous problems of food waste and hunger in the context of food (waste) rescue and redistribution as a means for mitigating hunger. To this end, we develop an empirical model that can be used in Monte Carlo simulations to study the dynamics of the underlying problem. Our model's parameters are derived from a data set provided by a large food bank and food rescue...
