🌱 New EAT-Lancet Commission Report Released 🌍 The 2025 EAT-Lancet Commission Report sets out a bold vision and practical roadmap for how we can feed nearly 10 billion people by 2050 — with diets that are both healthy and within planetary boundaries. The report identifies two interconnected targets — healthy diets and sustainable food production — supported by five key strategies to transform global food systems. 🥦 To get there, global consumption of fruits, vegetables, legumes and nuts must more than double, while red meat, sugar and ultra-processed foods need to be cut by over half. 🌾 On the production side, it calls for better farming practices, reduced food waste, and stronger governance across land and ocean systems. ⚖️ The message is clear: no single action is enough — we need coordinated, multi-level change across the entire food system. In Australia, Plus One Serve of vegetables by 2030 program aims to increase vegetable consumption through driving evidence-based, nationally coordinated action that encourages positive behavior change - supporting healthy diets and a sustainable food system.

"Transformation to healthy diets by 2050 will require substantial dietary shifts. Global consumption of fruits, vegetables, nuts and legumes will have to double, and consumption of foods such as red meat and sugar will have to be reduced by more than 50%. A diet rich in plant-based foods and with fewer animal source foods confers both improved health and environmental benefits"

Did you know our food system is responsible for one-third of global greenhouse gas emissions? 🌍 Of that total, animal-based foods alone account for up to 20%. And yet, there's a striking imbalance in this food sector: 🥩 Animal-based foods use 80% of global agricultural land 🍽️ But provide only 18% of dietary calories and 37% of protein By rethinking what we put on our plates and supporting policies that encourage more sustainable choices, we can cut emissions, free up land, and ensure healthier diets for all. 📖 Read more in our Good Food Policy Brief: https://hubs.ly/Q03Ljr6b0 #ProVeg #FoodSystems #SustainableFuture #FoodPolicy

Dairy Alternatives and changing Consumer Health Trends The future of dairy isn’t just dairy anymore What was once a niche market for the health-conscious is now a global movement reshaping consumer behavior and industry strategy. Plant-based dairy alternatives are no longer just about lactose intolerance—they’re about health, sustainability, and lifestyle. Consumers are increasingly choosing products that align with their wellness goals and environmental values. This shift is pushing traditional dairy companies to rethink their portfolios, innovate with new ingredients, and communicate transparency like never before. The message is clear: adaptability isn’t optional—it’s the new competitive edge. ◾ Global demand for dairy alternatives is accelerating, fueled by health and sustainability trends. ◾ Innovation is shifting from “replacement” to “enhancement,” with better taste, texture, and nutrition. ◾ Traditional dairy players are entering the alt-dairy market to stay relevant and future-proof.

Ensuring everyone across the globe has access to affordable, nutritious food means working together. The Scaling Up Nutrition (SUN) Movement unites 67 countries that are proving that when we integrate nutrition into agriculture, health, climate action, and trade, we create food systems that work for everyone. Working hand in hand, we can ensure: 🌾 Sustainable food production 🥗 Access to healthy, diverse, affordable diets 🌍 Food security that doesn’t harm the planet The SUN Movement is calling on leaders this #WorldFoodDay to place nutrition at the heart of food systems transformation. #PowerTheChange.

Some food trends got a little too much hype - and it’s starting to show 🌱 We asked the De Novo team to unpack which food and supplement trends might not be as sustainable as they seem. From avocados to almonds to krill oil, even the most well-intentioned choices can have complex environmental trade-offs. The takeaway? Popularity doesn’t always equal sustainability. As we move toward a more resilient food system, it’s worth asking how our “healthy” habits impact the planet. #DeNovoFoodlabs #NutritionScience #FunctionalNutrition #NextGenNutrition #BiotechNutrition #FutureOfFood #PrecisionFermentation #FoodTrends

Where do we want our European food systems to be? How to head for a sustainable food system that provides for healthy diets? Todays #NextBite2025 event organised by @EITFood & partners brought some new food for thought and great discussions. Some highlights: 🧮 Harmonises methodologies for on-farm regenerative agriculture metrics is one of the policy priorities towards 2030 (Gijs Schilthuis DG Agri) 🧩 A clear interface between on-farm and food producer metrics (scope 3, CDP..) will help further accelerate acceptance by all value chain partners (Anastasia Volkova, Regrow Ag 🐛 Functional tests and market research with food products od 7 novel types of proteins (rapeseed, mealworm, krill, microbial, mushroom, fermented fungi, pea) learned that consumers prefer simple straight forward words, with still some reluctance visavis insects (Morena Silvestrini, CNTA, Spain, Nina McGrath) 🩵 Food is key for healthy ageing. It starts early. Life events such as moving out of the elderly home, getting a child or illness are pivotal moments for food habit change, generalist doctors to play a key role in food education. 💡The word of 'ultraprocessed foods', or the 'level of processing' are not a very helpful indications to label a food group nor for the healthiness. Quantities of (or absence of) sugar, sodium and saturated fats are. ☀️Jack Bobo (UCLA) urges to stop using the doom scenario narrative, not (only) to prepare for the most likely, but work towards the preferred and possible scenario Many thanks to the organisors of EIT Food for the outstanding event!

On World Food Day, we’re reflecting on how innovation can help close that gap. 🌍 Whether it’s working with small holder farmers to build climate-resilient supply chains, creating plant-based ingredients that make nutritious food more affordable, or turning food waste into value through upcycled solutions — every step matters. Because when more people have access to safe, nutritious food, we all move forward. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/gaqEvedR #WorldFoodDay #FoodSecurity #Sustainability #FoodForAll #Nutrition
