Food

Food is any substance consumed to provide nutritional support for an organism. It is usually of plant or animal origin, and contains essential nutrients, such as carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamins, or minerals. The substance is ingested by an organism and assimilated by the organism's cells to provide energy, maintain life, or stimulate growth.

Climate policy knowledge for well-informed decision-making

An EU project aims to support policy and decision makers in taking well-informed decisions, by facilitating understanding of the consequences of different policies and climate regimes, thereby reducing uncertainties and enhancing their insights. Work to date involved identification of knowledge needs and their consequent addressing by collecting and synthesising knowledge.
