Data Specifics How to Track Sustainability in Food

June 8, 2023

An estimated 25% of global greenhouse gas emissions are directly linked to the food system, and major firms and national governments are pressing hard to show progress on reductions.

That’s why the first episode in CityAge’s 2023 Food’s Future series will look at how data can substantiate sustainability claims.

With increasing demands for transparency and accountability, businesses and consumers alike need reliable methods to verify the environmental impact of food production.

Our expert speakers will discuss how harnessing data can provide accurate insights, enable informed decision-making and foster confidence in sustainability efforts. Join us as we explore the cutting-edge technologies and strategies that drive data-driven sustainability in the food industry.
