SUSTAINABILITY

Sustainability is a very important contribution to the reuse of existing food waste, which has long been at the center of the environment, culture and economy, aiming to reduce carbon emissions.
Sustainability considers how to carry out processes in a way that is not wasteful of natural resources – and that can be continued into the future without any detrimental effects.Sustainable Gastronomy, therefore, takes into account where ingredients are from, how they are produced and the methods by which they are delivered to local markets and, ultimately, our plates. It is linked with sustainable development because it promotes food security, agricultural development, sustainable food production, nutrition, and conservation of biodiversity.

BIODIVERSITY

The term biodiversity refers to the variety of life on Earth at all its levels, from genes to ecosystems, and can encompass the evolutionary, ecological, and cultural processes that sustain life.
Biodiversity is critical for safeguarding global food security, underpinning healthy and nutritious diets, improving rural livelihoods, and enhancing the resilience of people and communities.
To use biodiversity in a sustainable way is important for climate change and environment.

Biodiversity, on the other hand, disseminates policy solutions and presents ecological principles to end hunger and malnutrition as one of the trending topics of the recent period. In a world of climate crisis, it seeks to use our land and resources in a sustainable way.
Biodiversity for food and nutrition is at the heart of a global project towards a more nutritious and resilient food system, through the lens of agrobiodiversity.
