About this Session:

Driven by growing consumer awareness of the health and environmental impacts of our daily food choices, there’s been a boom of healthier, more sustainable food and beverage products taking the market by storm. Research indicates that integrating more plant-based meat alternatives into diets can potentially be the most impactful environmental investment humanity can make, underscoring the significant role of our food supply in global sustainability efforts. Research linking ultra-processed food consumption to higher mortality rates is pushing consumers towards more nutritious, less processed, less sugar-filled options at the checkout line. Transforming the food system will take time, effort, investment and behavior change on a massive scale. Entrenched political interests, lobbying groups and complex regulations will continue to be a speed bump for food and beverage innovators, but the shift to a healthier, more sustainable food supply is a mission worth taking to make a significant impact on human and environmental health.
