Sustainable Production and Consumption of Foods
Doctoral thesis of Franziska Stoessel
Production and consumption of food has significant impacts on the environment, like climate change, high water consumption and loss of biodiversity. The present project aims for the optimization of wholesalers purchasing in order to obtain sustainability.
We evaluate and carry out high-quality life cycle assessments to identify ecological optimizing potentials.
This means in detail:
- We assist the purchasers in retail business to make their decisions upon our recommendations
- We establish a basis for a product marketing which helps the consumer to decide ecologically
