Climate Change: Managing the risk impact on the Food Supply Chain
It is now universally accepted that climate change presents a clear and present danger to all businesses. For the food and beverage industry the risk impact is not only related to business continuity, but also the unspoken responsibility to produce ‘safe’ food. In this webinar our expert panel will examine the ‘new’ climate related risks to food safety and explore the critical actions required in response to resultant sourcing/supply challenges. The webinar will pose key questions to our experts including;
- What are the emerging food safety risks presented by climate change related events?
- How has climate change impacted your sourcing and supply quality risk landscape?
- What changes have you made to your FSQ supplier due diligence programs to ensure the safe, quality supply of materials?

Renewable energy sources — once the fuel of the future, then practical in specific, narrow applications — are increasingly economic mainstream sources of power generation. Hydropower was long the mainstay of U.S. renewable electricity generation, although wind power surpassed hydro for the first time in 2019, and solar continues its rapid growth. The continued growth of wind and solar, with their fluctuations, is tied in part to improvements in storage technology: batteries.
