The study was produced by a group of researchers coordinated by the UK Centre for Ecology &amp; Hydrology (UKCEH), the European Commission, Copenhagen Business School and the National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM) of The Netherlands. Appetite for Change says inefficiencies in farms, retail and wastewater practices mean that the nitrogen use efficiency of the food system in Europe is only 18 per cent, leaving most of the remainder leaking into air, water and soils.<\/p>\n<p>The report proposes halving the average European meat and dairy consumption and moving to a more plant-based diet to cut pollution and improve human health. According to the researchers, the food system in Europe, especially livestock, accounts for 80 per cent of the continent\u2019s nitrogen emissions. Growing vegetables and other plant produce is typically more efficient than livestock agriculture, requiring less land and fertilisers.<\/p>\n<p>To help the shift towards more plant-based diets, the researchers suggest providing financial incentives for foods that have a low impact on the environment and adopting public sector catering contracts that offer these sustainable food choices. There should be a \u201ccoherent combination of policies addressing food production and consumption to better support a transition towards sustainable systems.\u201d The study also urges better management of fertiliser use and storage of manure, which contains nitrogen. The researchers say better wastewater treatment to capture nitrogen from sewage would also reduce emissions and enable recycled nutrients to be used on fields.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/green\/2023\/12\/21\/go-demitarian-this-christmas-un-report-urges-new-diet-to-help-fight-climate-change\">Euronews<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/7-453\/\">Go \u2018demitarian\u2019 this Christmas: UN report urges new diet to help fight climate change<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[462,12737,10798,575],"class_list":["post-119766","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-climate-change","tag-demitarian","tag-diet","tag-environmental-news-en"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/119766","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=119766"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/119766\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=119766"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=119766"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=119766"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
