  3. 7. Integrating Sustainability in the Food Supply Chain : Two Measures to Reduce the Food Wastage in a Swedish Retail Store

    Master-uppsats, Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Herman Nilsson; [2013]
    Nyckelord :Food loss; Food Supply Chain; Climate Impact; Resource Depletion; Sustainable Development.;

    Sammanfattning : Due to the growing world population, the environmental impact from the food supply chain is currently increasing in a global perspective, essentially because the global food consumption is increasing in general. The UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) estimates that about one third of the edible portions of the food produced globally is lost or wasted along the way from raw materials to the dinner plate.
