This review paper examines the critical intersection of energy consumption and environmental impacts within global food system, emphasizing substantial footprint (including land usage, costs, loss waste, carbon water footprints) associated with current practices. The study delineates high demands ecological burdens production, trade, through a comprehensive bibliographic analysis high-impact research papers, authoritative reports, databases. systematically analyzes synthesizes data to characterize industry’s use patterns impacts. results underscore pressing need for strategic interventions enhance system efficiency reduce footprint. In light projected population growth increasing demand, advocates paradigm shift towards more sustainable resilient production practices, adopting energy-efficient technologies, promoting dietary habits, strengthening cooperation among stakeholders achieve Sustainable Development Goals. Investigations have revealed that is highly energy-intensive, accounting approximately 30% total (200 EJ per year). sector remains heavily reliant on fossil fuels. Associated greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, which constitute 26% all anthropogenic shown linear trend, reaching 16.6 GtCO2eq in 2015 approach 18.6 coming years. Notably, 6% these emissions result from never consumed. While has slightly decreased recently, its demand expected increase by 20% 30%, potentially between 5500 6000 km3 annually 2050. Energy are estimated save up 20%, favorable payback period, as evidenced several practical implementations.

ABSTRACT What happens when already sceptical customers start questioning company communication? Encouraged by the vague answers to this question, our study extends existing knowledge about effects of customers' environmental concern, scepticism and communication on green purchasing intention (GPI) behaviour (GPB) across environmentally controversial industries—namely, textile clothing food industries. Using own primary data collected in November 2023 covering 1001 Czech Republic, where issue sustainability is generally back burner, we show that increased concern can completely change relationship between GPI, thereby leading positive effects. interesting new finding trust distrust act as significant mediators relationships investigated thus far. Moreover, soon examine companies' practices their credibility more detail, previously GPI become negative.

In Portugal, cheese holds a prominent position as major dairy product, with traditional varieties enjoying widespread acclaim. A number of these cheeses have earned Protected Designations Origin status, showcasing their unique qualities and regional significance. Notable examples include “Serra da Estrela”, “Serpa”, “Terrincho”. The production relies heavily on heating cooling processes, which account for substantial portion the total energy consumed. This research endeavour undertakes detailed description analysis cheesemaking practices within Portugal’s interior central region, particular emphasis economic energetic efficiency refrigeration systems. For this purpose, thirty-one facilities were examined classified into two distinct groups: Traditional Industrial Producers Handmade Producers. was conducted through separate case studies. findings reveal that significant 58% consumed by is attributed to electrically powered systems, encompassing components such fans, compressed air illumination. Within fuel combustion, primarily naphtha or propane, serves purpose water steam generation. Based consumption reports, Specific Energy Consumption electricity determined be 0.283 kWh/lRM TIP 0.169 THP. Furthermore, several linear regression models developed explore relationships between parameters cold room volume, compressor power, raw material quantity. study also identified key factors contributing reduced facilities. These inadequate insulation buildings rooms, outdated poorly maintained equipment situated in suboptimal locations, rooms compressors are oversized not optimised efficient operation.

A strategy allowing for the application of orange waste (OW) in anaerobic co-digestion with municipal sewage sludge (MSS) has been proposed. For this purpose, introduction an additional component represented by ice-cream processing (IPW) chosen. The experiment was conducted batch mode at a temperature 37 °C. Four series were conducted: S1—the mono-digestion MSS; S2—two-component MSS and 1.5 g OW; S3—two-component 1.0 IPW; S4—three-component MSS, IPW, OW. obtained results indicate that highest methane production achieved presence IPW two- three-component mixtures (S3 S4). It also accompanied improved kinetics, enhanced organic removal, stable process performance. related yields 407.6 401.6 mL/g VS S3 S4, respectively. In turn, S1 S2, parameter established level 351.3 344.3 VS. Additionally, as compared to (S1), energy profit 54 62% possibility effective management OW recovery digestion (AD).

The restaurant is one of the components food service industry with high energy demand. sustainability its consumption highly desirable for profitability and climate change mitigation. ‘Human factor’ a phenomenon that difficult to control in all businesses including restaurant, it unfortunately coordinates other resources. This article reviewed effects human factors on sustainable consumption, provide information will aid better management towards operations. A scoping review was employed study. Many published articles grey literature were consulted, but only those related content included grouped according several themes capturing issues relating various identified. study found literacy awareness, behavioral intentions attitudes, social norms cultural influences, training employee engagement, customer perceptions, expectations, preferences be among factor affect behaviors. Relevant lessons drawn from findings help restaurants navigate toward utilization. paper provides relevant policy on-ground administration enhancing restaurants’ Enhanced contribute greatly drive mitigation consequential benefits.
