Effect of Climate Change on Food Security in Relation with the Empact of Food Industries Emission: A Review

摘要

Food security and environmental issues are growing, bringing about the need for more sophisticated control of industrial emissions and waste. Emissions and waste from food processing industries are one of the potential sources of climate change and food insecurity that have remarkable effects on environment interlinked with food productivity and nutritional status. It is also reducing fertility of land, degradation of natural ecosystem and purity of water, productivity of seeds, efficiency of pesticides and endurance of agrobiodiversity used for food production. Chemical residues and food containments in the form of wastes emitted from dairy, brewery, winery, beverage, fruits and vegetable, meat and poultry processing industries have been reconsidered as the cause for climate change. Therefore, there must be strategies to alleviate climate change due to food industry residues, chemicals and wastes. This could be achieved by reducing loss and waste in the food system, recycling and preserving resources to satisfy human food security aspiration and climate change regulation. To this end, food processing industries should maintain their emission, wastes, and use environmentally friendly materials during processing and packaging which are essential for the well being of the world environment by reversing the greenhouse effect, preventing soil erosion, ensuring replacement of trees, protecting watercourse, preserving fertility and related impacts. Therefore, the purpose of this review is to investigate the scientific cause of climate changes due to food industry emission and how this resulting food loss and food insecurity.
