"Many people are looking for ways they can contribute to a better planet and the choices we make every single mealtime are the simplest way we can make a difference,” says Ingrid Mellstig, Head of Electrolux Food Foundation.

Mellstig will be moderating the event that brings together a social entrepreneur, scientist and chef - representing movements that promote sustainable living – to explain why we should eat more plants, try new things and waste less food.

You’ll get to hear that food has a far bigger environmental impact than CO2 alone, how consumer power is pushing culinary professionals to think differently and what needs to be done to in the quest to minimize food waste.

Zukunft braucht Frieden

forum 02/2026 ist erschienen

Geopolitische Spannungen, Aufrüstung und Unsicherheit prägen Märkte und Investitionsentscheidungen wie lange nicht. Die neue Ausgabe von forum future economy setzt bewusst einen Kontrapunkt: Sie gibt Stimmen Raum, die für Diplomatie, Deeskalation und zivile Lösungen eintreten – weil wirtschaftliche Stabilität ohne Frieden nicht denkbar ist.
