An assumption to start with is that food is lost or wasted throughout the food supply chain, from the production to the consumption stage, or in other words, \u201c<\/span><span lang=\"en-CA\"><i>from farm to fork\u201d<\/i><\/span><span lang=\"en-CA\">. Causes underlying this fact are multiple, diverse as to their nature and vary according to the context: for example, in medium- and high-income countries food is to a significant extent wasted at the consumption stage, meaning that it is discarded even if it is still suitable for human consumption; in low-income countries food loss can be related e.g. to limited financial, managerial and technical capacities, to poor infrastructure or inadequate storage facilities.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #333333;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span lang=\"en-CA\"><i><b>A stark contrast exists in the actual global food system<\/b><\/i><\/span><span lang=\"en-CA\">. On one hand, according to FAO, roughly one-third of all food produced each year worldwide is loss or wasted.

This implies that all the resources and inputs required to produce, store, process, transport and eventually sell such an enormous amount of food are used in vain \u2013 a clear inefficiency from an economic standpoint. In light of the aforementioned global challenges, this useless dissipation of resources appears even less tolerable. Another worrisome point relates to the environmental pollution associated to the food that is then lost or wasted. Again, data are self-explanatory: food loss and waste alone generate about 8% of Global Greenhouse Gas Emissions. Finally, it is worth noting that food loss and waste \u2013 as a loss in the economic value of what is produced \u2013 also negatively impacts the livelihoods of producers and the income of consumers.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #333333;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span lang=\"en-CA\"><i><b>From Linear to Circular Economy<\/b><\/i><\/span><span lang=\"en-CA\">.

In addition, involvement in sustainability initiatives can serve as a real source of brand differentiation: from new product development to innovative campaigns, more-sustainable solutions seem increasingly attractive for a growing customer base, and especially among Millennials.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #333333;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span lang=\"en-CA\">Many\u00a0<\/span><span lang=\"en-CA\"><b>technologically sophisticated methods of treating food waste and by-products to produce fibres\u00a0<\/b><\/span><span lang=\"en-CA\">are <\/span><span lang=\"en-CA\"><b>already in commerce<\/b><\/span><span lang=\"en-CA\">, with other waste-derived creations on the horizon.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #333333;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span lang=\"en-CA\">The most prominent example is <\/span><span lang=\"en-CA\"><b>Orange Fiber<\/b><\/span><span lang=\"en-CA\">, a patent with an Italian soul which made it possible to produce the first <\/span><span lang=\"en-CA\">fabric<\/span><span lang=\"en-CA\">in the world with cellulose extracted <\/span><span lang=\"en-CA\">from the by-product of citrus juice production. Developed by a start-up based in Sicily, <\/span><span lang=\"en-CA\">this yarn with a silky feel <\/span><span lang=\"en-CA\">was awarded the <\/span><span lang=\"en-CA\"><i>H&amp;M Foundation Global Change Award <\/i><\/span><span lang=\"en-CA\">in 2016<\/span><span lang=\"en-CA\"><i>.\u00a0<\/i><\/span><span lang=\"en-CA\">Salvatore Ferragamo was the first brand to use Orange Fibre\u2019s innovative fabric for the Spring-Summer 2017 season, setting a new sustainability standard in fashion and luxury. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #333333;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span lang=\"en-CA\">Adding value to waste not only entails low environmental impact, but also positive social outcomes. Working to the values of a circular economy, the Ananas Anam company patented <\/span><span lang=\"en-CA\"><b>Pi\u00f1atex<\/b><\/span><span lang=\"en-CA\">, an innovative leather-like material made from pineapple leaf \ufb01bre, a by-product of the fruit industry which is traditionally discarded or burned. Fibres are extracted through a process called decortication, which is done at the plantation by the farming community. Once the fibre has been stripped from the leaf, the leftover biomass is retained to use as a natural fertiliser or biofuel, offering a further economic prospect. The company is currently working with farming cooperatives in the Philippines, but is planning to expand to other pineapple growing countries. Adding value to waste has supported the local economy and strengthened their exports by creating an additional stream of income for rural communities, who otherwise rely on a seasonal harvest.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #333333;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span lang=\"en-CA\">Have you ever imagined that the coffee we drink could be transformed into the garments we wear, at the same time helping to reduce plastic pollution? Patented by the Taiwanese company Singtex, <\/span><span lang=\"en-CA\"><b>S.Caf\u00e9\u00a0<\/b><\/span><span lang=\"en-CA\">is a yarn created by combining coffee grounds with polyester obtained from discarded plastic bottles. The resulting material \u2013 which can already be found in a number of products from leading fashion companies such as Hugo Boss, Timberland, American Eagle, North Face and Puma \u2013 is multi-functional and can be suitable for a variety of uses, from outdoor and sportswear to household items. The coffee grounds used to create the yarn are recycled from some of the world\u2019s largest coffee vendors, like Starbucks, as well as from local coffee shops. In addition, garments made from S.Caf\u00e9 can also be composted at the end of their life, giving them a circular lifecycle. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #333333;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span lang=\"en-CA\"><i><b>The future is not a place we\u2019re going to, but a place we create<\/b><\/i><\/span><span lang=\"en-CA\">. So far, the relation between the fashion and food industries has been pictured in negative terms, with the former blamed of fueling food shortages and subtracting precious natural resources to the latter. Quite the contrary, more recent developments show that <\/span><span lang=\"en-CA\">cross-industry collaboration can\u00a0<\/span><b><\/b><span lang=\"en-CA\">lead to regenerative impacts for the benefit of nature, society, and economics. As provided for by SDG 17, a successful sustainable development agenda requires partnerships built upon principles and values, a shared vision, and shared goals that place people and the planet at the centre. The joint efforts outlined above are moving in this direction, and seem particularly encouraging given that the fashion and food industries are tackling similar challenges in a number of impact areas along their value chains, from raw material production to end-of-life disposal. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #333333;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span lang=\"en-CA\">Partnerships appear as the answer to close the loop. Taking innovations global, fostering cross-industry collaboration and encouraging supporting regulatory action may open up new \u2013 and more sustainable \u2013 opportunities for business, despite the pressures of resource scarcity.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #333333;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span lang=\"en-CA\"><u><b>About the authors<\/b><\/u><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #333333;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span lang=\"en-CA\"><b><a href=\"http:\/\/www.foodtimes.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Sara-Cavagnero.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-37998 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/www.foodtimes.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Sara-Cavagnero.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.foodtimes.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Sara-Cavagnero.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.foodtimes.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Sara-Cavagnero-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a>Sara Cavagnero<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"color: #333333;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span lang=\"en-CA\">Qualified lawyer and scholar at UNINT University in Rome, Sara has extensive international experience, having worked at the EU Delegation in Indonesia and ASEAN, the UN Crime and Justice Research Institute in Geneva, as well as the Italian Red Cross and the International Chamber of Commerce in Rome.
