Inspiring initiative comes up with 50 foods for the future...

 

The world’s population is expected to grow to almost ten billion people by 2050. A population that will need to be fed with the finite resources this planet has to offer. Food brands, supermarket chains, multinationals and environmental protectors are feeling increasingly responsible for reducing this negative impact.


Environmental protector WWF and food brand Knorr have joined forces. In collaboration with  Dr. Adam Drewnowski - research leader in a study into obesity and social inequality with regards to food - and with the help of data from the FAO, the Future 50 Foods list was composed in February 2019. Selected on the basis of nutritional value, environmental impact, flavour, availability, acceptability and affordability. All aimed at moving towards a healthy planet and healthy inhabitants. Like the enoki mushrooms on the picture above.
