国际空间站 reaches major sustainability milestone reducing global food waste by 30%

国际空间站 has made significant progress against its global food service sustainability targets with a collective 30% food waste reduction from its 2019 baseline. This achievement puts 国际空间站 well on track to reach its target of 50% food waste reduction by 2027. 此外, 国际空间站 has taken yet another step towards fulfilling its commitment to the World Resource Institute’s Cool 食物 Pledge by reducing nearly 5% of the greenhouse gas emissions per 1,000 kcal associated with the food it serves globally.

优化食物采购, 策略性规划的菜单, and an increased focus on changing consumer behaviour patterns are just a few examples of initiatives that have accelerated 国际空间站’s global food waste reductions towards its 50% reduction target by 2027.

 

Progress driven by data and insights

哈米什做饭, 集团食品亿宝彩票app官网部主管, explains that the activities and progress are a result of 国际空间站’s global food sustainability programme which the company rolled out across countries at the beginning of 2022:

 

“A key element of the programme was to enhance our focus on innovation and leverage data and insights across our global operations. Our partnership with technology company Winnow has been a key lever in this endeavour. By integrating Winnow’s Artificial Intelligence solutions into restaurants and kitchens, our chefs are empowered with knowledge about plate waste and consumer patterns, which helps them to optimise food production and portion sizes – thereby reducing food and plastic waste.”

 

通过精选, 国际空间站 is now achieving a collective annualised saving rate of 985,000 tonnes of food waste for its customers.

This is equivalent to saving 2,463,000 meals and reducing Co2 emissions by 4,200 tonnes.   

Sustainable food options that benefit climate and health
去年, 国际空间站 committed to the World Resource Institute’s Cool 食物 Pledge to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 25% by 2030. 有一个4.8% reduction per 1,000 kcal from a 2019 baseline, the company is moving in the right direction. 国际空间站 will accelerate this by expanding its plant-based menu offerings even further. 哈米什·库克说:

“Our key priority is to encourage our customers to make more sustainable choices, benefiting both the climate and personal health. This means that we are enhancing innovative recipes development, 菜单的概念, and comprehensive culinary training”.

 

作为这项努力的一部分, 与联合利华合作, 国际空间站 is incorporating WWF’s and Unilever’s collaborative suggestions for ‘Future 50 foods’ – 50 nutritious foods with a minimal environmental footprint – into recipes across the world.

 

热爱食物,行为可持续

In addition to enhancing its culinary training of 国际空间站 chefs, both in waste and Co2 reduction efforts, 国际空间站 is initiating awareness campaigns across customer sites and its own locations. 哈米什·库克说:

 

“In the end, we must drive the climate agenda together. This requires constant awareness and attention. 本周, we are supporting the UN-led International Day of Awareness of 食物 Loss and Waste through our own Love 食物 and Stop Waste campaign. Restaurants across the world will share recipes and tips for great food with minimum food waste. Most importantly, we encourage everyone to make every day a Love 食物 and Stop Waste Day. Always optimise the usage of food and materials, 减少浪费, and encourage those around you to do the same.”
