Asia-Europe Environment Forum (ENVforum) at @ASEForg. Platform for dialogue on sustainable development and environment issues in Asia & Europe #SDGs#Agenda2030
SusDev Dept. attended the Partners Workshop hosted by CICE on catalyzing SME-led circular carbon transition! Collaborated w/ thought leaders to define priority actions, accelerating progress in the #CircularEconomy through lasting partnerships and innovation.
A recent study revealed that emissions from animal-based food are double that of plant-based food systems. Our policy brief discusses the crucial role of SMEs in promoting sustainable agri-food systems. https://t.co/hPXkSJR0M6 #FoodWaste#FAO#CircularEconomy
In 2011, Carbon footprint from food waste was estimated by #FAO to be 3.6 GtCo2 eq, excld. deforestation & managed organic soils. SMEs play a crucial role in decarbonising food supply chain. More from our policy brief ! #CircularEconomy#FoodWaste#SMEs. https://t.co/A9tneJpdUC

@un_osd Glad we could contribute to the @un_osd 2022 #SDTF@aseforg Assoc Director for Governance & Sustainable Development @gpulawska presents the outcomes of the #ENVforum, as part of the launch of the report "Climate Change Mitigation Efforts in #ASEM Partner Countries".
💚A long-term partner of the #ENVforum: @SEI_Asia
🙏Grateful for all the support that the Institute extended since the set-up of the Asia-Europe Environment Forum in 2013.
We have become a strong e inter-regional platform for dialogue & cooperation on sustainable development.
"Industry accounts for roughly 30% of global CO2 emissions placing a significant imperative on industrial actors to reduce emissions sharply for the world to limit global warming below 2°C."
