Seasonal and regional products: climate-friendly and healthier

Leslie

TEAM-THURSDAY: We as a group of companies want to become more and more sustainable in our offices as well! Our colleagues from the climate and environmental protection department know best how to achieve this.

Leslie, Climate Consultant at M&P Go.Blue.Now., brings her lunch from home and makes sure to eat seasonal and regional fruits and vegetables, because they are more climate-friendly than those that are imported or grown out of season in heated greenhouses. Processed foods like tomato paste and preserved fruits and vegetables like canned peaches also have a higher carbon footprint than fresh, unprocessed foods.

But it is not only the energy balance that speaks in favour of buying seasonally. Fruit and vegetables that are fully ripe have the highest vitamin content and are therefore very healthy.

Leslie has summarised the most important sustainability tips on the subject of food for us in a short and crisp way:

  • No. 1 #Seasonal
  • No. 2 #More vegetables and fruit instead of meat and animal products
  • No. 3 #Regional
  • No. 4 #Unpacked shopping
  • No. 5 #Bio is good for the climate
  • No. 6 #Value instead of throwing away, pack the rest and take it with you

Climate-friendly food choices can save up to 50 % of emissions.
