Our Appetite for Action campaign is looking at how food waste levels, and therefore carbon emissions and net zero ambitions, are being impacted by the current global issues around supply chain resilience.

Watch the webinar, featuring experts from WRAP and WWF, to explore why prioritising a net zero strategy and tackling food waste will ultimately help navigate supply chain issues and learn how we can all build more resilient food supply chains.

Food waste is removed for anaerobic digestion to create electricity and fertiliser.
