Our Food Our Future: Innovative Solutions in Action at UnConference 3.0
Image: Climate Stripes
The future of food is more critical than ever. The global food system is one of the leading causes of environmental degradation, driving biodiversity loss, freshwater scarcity, deforestation, as well as overfishing. Therefore, if we are serious about tackling climate change, we need to focus on transforming the food system.
At UnConference 3.0, we’re not just talking about the problems, we’re diving into real-world solutions. So…this is your chance to roll up your sleeves and engage with like-minded leaders to co-create actionable strategies! Whether you’re a food producer, retailer, or policymaker, this is the place where your ideas meet action. Let’s take bold steps together.
This year’s theme? We’re all about cutting emissions, and we’ve crafted two powerful tracks to guide us.
Meet the incredible speakers joining us for Unconference 3.0!

TRACK A: Reducing Emissions Through Food & Ingredients Choices
We all know that sourcing ingredients responsibly and embracing plant-forward innovations can significantly reduce emissions. In this track, we’ll explore how to make better sourcing decisions, create transparency in the ingredients we choose both internally and externally, and push forward solutions that are good for the planet—and good for business.
TRACK B: Reducing Emissions Through Food Waste Management
Food waste is certainly a colossal issue, contributing massively to unnecessary emissions. So, how can we slash waste and turn it into value? Hence, in this track, we’ll explore circular economy practices, innovative waste reduction solutions, as well as measurable steps you can take to transform waste management in your business.
