Notice Title

Food Footprint Report

Notice Description

Last year WWF-UK published a UK Global Footprint report that calculated the extent to which the UK needs to reduce the environmental impact of UK production and consumption by 2030 in order to remain within planetary limits. WWF-UK is now looking to commission a follow up report to calculate the UK food sector's contribution to the UK's global footprint and identify those stakeholder actions (e.g. consumer, farmer/fisher, business, government) that can best achieve the necessary reductions in this to achieve WWF-UK's goals. WWF-UK is calling for research consultant proposals to deliver technical and summary reports answering the research questions: 1) What is the 'food footprint' of the UK (and England, Wales and Scotland) - i.e. the contribution of the UK/nations' food system to the UK's global footprint (the environmental pressures and impact of UK production and consumption)? 2) What should the UK (and England, Wales and Scotland) food footprint reduction targets be for 2030 and 2050 to align with the targets of a) reducing the UK's Global Footprint by three-quarters by 2030, b) achieving UK net-zero by 2050 and c) halting and reversing the loss of UK biodiversity by 2030? 3) What are the relative impacts of stakeholder actions (inc. consumers, farmers/fishers, businesses, governments) to reduce the UK's food footprint? 4) What are the economic, social, health and environmental cost-benefits of these actions and the jeopardy of stakeholders not taking them? 5) What is the relative potential impact of each stakeholder group to reduce the UK's food footprint? Please refer to the attached Request for Proposals document for full details of the intended scope and deliverables, and for information about how to respond to this opportunity. Responses and clarification questions should be directed to Carmel Edwards, Senior Policy Advisor, (email CEdwards@wwf.org.uk). We request that all responses are returned to us by 17:00 on 01 April. Additional information: Please note that the email address for correspondence is CEdwards@wwf.org.uk. An incorrect email address was published initially.
