🎉HowGood just launched a new feature that changes everything: Accounting for the work of farmers in product environmental footprints! → Why does this matter so much? Most product environmental footprints are calculated using global averages for agricultural crops. The problem with this approach is that the footprint of the SAME crop can be vastly different depending on where and how a farmer grows it. By capting agricultural practice data we can now help ensure the work of farmers is acknowledged and quantified! → How did we do it? We partnered with our dear friends at the Cool Farm Alliance and set-up a seamless API connector that offers the best of the Cool Farm Platform and HowGood's Platform in one single interface. → Want to check it out? Take a look at the short video below where I walk you through a product environmental footprint for a strawberry cheesecake that considers the specific agricultural program used to grow those strawberries. Thank you to our friends at Cool Farm and to all HowGood engineers and researchers that spent countless hours bringing this tech to life. Farming and farmers make a huge difference, and now we can show it.

Prediction for 2025 and beyond: sustainability + traceability will be an inseparable data strategy for global food companies, product carbon footprinting will be the common language, and companies will lean into a distributed approach to sharing information. With help from a robust network of partners like IBM and TraceGains - HowGood is the only solution to offer the common language (PCFs) and supply chain engagement automation tools to exceed sustainability and traceability data goals within a distributed system. Check out my most recent article about the importance of distributed data, developing a common language, and how to get started.

"If we create a collapse within the #foodsystem because of loss of #biodiversity or #soil health, but we've solved #carbon, we're still going to have massive problems feeding the planet." - Alexander Gillett, CEO at HowGood, on why making food systems more sustainable requires a holistic approach that goes beyond just tackling carbon emissions in the S&P Global #ESG Insider podcast https://lnkd.in/edx7D_qU

“This year, we saw the #food and #beverage industry double down on #AI as a productivity tool (aggregating and analyzing #supplychain data, overcoming logistical and manufacturing hurdles) while further exploring its capabilities to innovate and drive radical industry change (formulating new #sustainable recipes, finding more diverse #ingredients substitutions, creating new ingredients). I anticipate that AI will influence 90% of the food we consume within the next three years, whether it’s helping #retailers and #restaurants navigate the growing challenges of climate disclosure regulations or providing solutions for protecting global #biodiversity. To get to that point, the food and beverage industry must continue experimenting with AI to discover new areas where the technology can drive meaningful change within the way we consume food and protect our natural resources.” - Ethan Soloviev, Chief Innovation Officer at HowGood, on the evolving role of #artificialintelligence in transforming the #foodsystem in Keep Cool https://lnkd.in/edu8cUtc

"Scope 3 emissions data plays such an important role in helping universities reduce their carbon footprint and meet their sustainability targets, and we're thrilled to work side-by-side with these universities to make a real, measurable impact." - Monalisa Prasad, Vice President of Sustainability at Chartwells Higher Education Dining Services, on why they're proud to be the first and only #foodservice provider in higher education to track #Scope3 #emissions https://lnkd.in/gMiEavjj

Carbon footprinting has emerged as a critical tool for the food industry to measure, manage, and mitigate environmental impact. Experts from HowGood and The Carbon Trust recently shared actionable strategies and insights on the topic. Head to our blog for the webinar recording and a recap of the key points that were shared to help food companies gain better knowledge of and utilize the power of carbon footprinting. https://lnkd.in/eE68d_ZE
