corsus is participating in the True Cost Accounting (TCA) Networking Event at Biofach 2023 as part of the CLIF project.
As part of the digital working group “Sustainable Products” of the Center for Sustainable Corporate Management at Witten/Herdecke University, Ulrike Eberle presented the expert opinion “Climate Label versus Eco-Score” on January 25.
The conference proceedings of the International Food Life Cycle Assessment Conference 2022 have been published. corsus is represented with two contributions on environmental impacts of food.
How should a successful environmental labelling for food be designed?
corsus has prepared an assessment report together with Zühlsdorf + Partner and the KATALYSE Institute.
Ulrike Eberle gave a short presentation on the interrelationships between True Cost Accounting (TCA) and Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) to reduce environmental impacts.
“A socio-ecological transformation of food systems is urgently needed. Life Cycle Assessment and True Cost Accounting show where priority action is needed: less animal-based food, more legumes and nuts, more social justice, less food waste and more sustainable agricultural production are the levers. Make sustainable choices easy choices!”
The International Food Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) Conference 2022 was held in Lima, Peru from October 12-15, 2022. Food LCA experts from all over the world presented the latest research results. The corsus team was also represented at the conference with several presentations: Dr. Ulrike Eberle and Nico Mumm presented in two lectures the results of the Besseresser:innen study, in which corsus determined the environmental impact of nutrition in Germany on behalf of WWF Germany.
On October 11, corsus conducted a workshop on methodological issues at the International Food Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) Conference 2022, taking place this year in Lima, Peru. More than 50 LCA experts provided valuable input for the development of the Food Impacts Toolkit (FIT), which will form the basis for the CLIF communication tool being developed as part of the CLIF project.
