Gains to species diversity in organically farmed fields are not propagated at the farm level

Organic farming is proposed to increase the biodiversity of organisms within a field. In this study, Schneider et al.show that while biodiversity is increased in organically farmed fields compared to conventionally farmed land, these effects are not seen at a greater spatial level.

Conservative to disruptive diets for optimizing nutrition, environmental impacts and cost in French adults from the NutriNet-Santé cohort

Conservative to disruptive changes in dietary patterns of French adults from the NutriNet-Santé cohort are considered for reducing environmental impacts, increasing organic food consumption, providing adequate nutrition and being economically acceptable. A progressive substitution of animal products by plant products across dietary scenarios more closely aligned dimensions of sustainability.

Sustainability analysis of French dietary guidelines using multiple criteria

A comparison of the recommended dietary guidelines in France from 2001 and 2017 finds that the updated guidelines perform better in terms of health (nutrition) and the environment (food production), albeit with a small increase in cost.

Environmental impacts along the value chain from the consumption of ultra-processed foods

Human diets exert a range of pressures on the environment. This study, using a sample of French adults, finds that the processing and packaging behind diets rich in ultra-processed foods create pressures involving energy use in particular.

An increase in food production in Europe could dramatically affect farmland biodiversity

Conversion of semi-natural habitats, such as hedgerows, to farmland could increase agricultural productivity by 6% and potentially reduce biodiversity by up to 66% depending on land use type, according to survey-based estimates across ten European regions.
