Speaker/Referentin
The talk
A food system entirely without packaging is impossible. But: in order to tackle the environmental challenges ahead of us, we need to improve our packaging and reduce the associated waste volumes. How can the recyclability of packaging be determined? When does a reusable system make sense and how does it work? How does our packaging make it into a closed-loop system that conserves global resources?
In a half-hour impulse talk each, the two experts Elena Schägg, project manager for circular economy at Environmental Action Germany (Deutsche Umwelthilfe), and Dr. Andreas Grabitz, business unit manager for packaging materials from the international laboratory group Eurofins, will tell us about their experiences, methods and findings.
Language
The presentation will be held in English.
About the project Positively Produced
Positively Produced is an Interreg project with 10 partners, food producers and knowledge institutions, that share a common and ambitious goal across borders between Denmark and Germany: to promote sustainable food production and consumption in the two neighbouring countries. In a climate-conscious and cross-cultural collaboration, we want to set out on the path to holistic sustainability. This includes environmentally friendly production methods but also important social and economic aspects, for example sustainable procurement.
