COP28 IIR workshop - 3 Degrees! Pioneering global change within the cold chain

Food loss and waste is a challenge that jeopardises global food security as well as our social, economic and environmental goals.  Globally, 12% of food produced annually is lost due to a lack of proper temperature management.

 

The 3 Degrees report led by Centre for Sustinable Cooling CSC, the Africa  Centre of Excellence for Sustainable Cooling and Cold-chain (ACES) and the IIR, in collaboration with DP World, will provide a platform for action, interrogating the role of frozen food in the global food system and whether the historical -18°C set-point for frozen goods in the cold chain is relevant in the context of today’s food products, refrigeration technology and monitoring.  

 

Date: Sunday 10 December 2023 

Time: 12:00pm-13:00pm
Location: Montreal Protocol Advancing Climate Action pavilion, Building 88, number 15 (Dubai - United Arab Emirates )
