In the new focus issue ‘The Future of Nutrition’ of Ökologie & Landbau from oekom Verlag, Dr Ulrike Eberle writes about the ‘Planetary Health Diet’ and how it enables a balanced, sustainable and ethically responsible diet for all people within the planetary boundaries.
What actually is biodiversity? Where are we today? How do I notice the decline in biodiversity in my everyday life? Can it be measured? Timo Landener and Moritz Petersen put these and other questions to Dr Ulrike Eberle, Managing Director of corsus, in their podcast “The same in green” (in German).
On 25 March 2025, Tönnies Forschung held a dialogue workshop in Badbergen on ‘Biodiversity and livestock farming: where are the levers?’. In her presentation, Dr Ulrike Eberle , Managing Director of corsus, discussed how biodiversity impacts can be managed along the value chain.
On 18 March, Martin Häusling from ‘Die Grünen / EFA’ in the European Parliament hosted a panel discussion on ‘Sustainability labels: consumer information or fraudulent labelling?’, in which various experts discussed the topic. Dr Ulrike Eberle from corsus took part in the event.
On 5 February 2025, Talita Amado from corsus participated at the Policy and Research Roundtable Dialogue on Integrated Climate-Nutrition Action. The pivotal roundtable event was co-hosted by FAO and the Government of France, bringing together policymakers, researchers, and global stakeholders to address two of the most pressing challenges of our time: climate change and malnutrition.
In December 2024, corsus published a White Paper within the project ‘CLIF – Climate Impacts of Food’. The aim of the White Paper is to identify the most appropriate impact assessment methods for selected environmental impact categories to be used for communicating environmental impacts of food.
In order to make nutrition more sustainable, assessment approaches are needed that link health and the environment and evaluate them together. The Planet Health Conformity Index (PHC), which was developed as part of the CLIF – Climate Impacts of Food project, addresses precisely this issue. In contrast to mono-dimensional indicators such as the Nutri-Score (focus: health) or the Eco-Score (focus: environment), a key figure has been developed that can provide a clear orientation for health and environmental aspects. In addition, the newly developed PHC also takes planetary impact limits into account in the assessment. The PHC can therefore provide more orientation in the labelling jungle.
The managing directors of corsus were appointed to the juries of the German Sustainability Award for both companies and products.
corsus presented itself at the International Food Life Cycle Assessment Conference 2024 in Barcelona as a leading consultancy for sustainable food systems.
