Environmental impact of the production of mealworms as a protein source for humans - a life cycle assessment.

TL;DR: This study demonstrates that mealworms should be considered a more sustainable source of edible protein, compared to conventional sources of animal protein.
Journal ArticleDOI

Attributional and consequential LCA of milk production

TL;DR: This study showed it is possible to perform both A LCA (mass and economic allocation) and CLCA (system expansion) of milk, and recommended LCA practitioners to better distinguish between ALCA and C LCA in applied studies to reach a higher degree of transparency.
Journal ArticleDOI

Environmental impact assessment of conventional and organic milk production

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a review of the potential environmental impact of conventional versus organic production using life cycle assessment (LCA) and show that LCAs of different case studies currently cannot be compared directly and that such a comparison requires further international standardisation of the LCA method.
Journal ArticleDOI

Innovation can accelerate the transition towards a sustainable food system

TL;DR: In this article, the authors identify technologies, assess their readiness and propose eight action points that could accelerate the transition towards a more sustainable food system and argue that the speed of innovation could be significantly increased with the appropriate incentives, regulations and social licence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Defining a land boundary for sustainable livestock consumption

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that livestock raised under the circular economy concept could provide a significant, nonnegligible part of the authors' daily protein needs and that including some ASF in the human diet could free up about one quarter of global arable land.
