Once developed, the group calls for any such labeling to be made mandatory. The recommendation is one of many in the re- port, which also examines how to drive a UK cir- cular economy, how food waste and loss can be reduced, and how better education can be deliv- ered in schools on the impact of the food system on climate change. The government should continue to progress the waste and recycling agenda by pro- moting the use of circular materials, and develop- ing consumer awareness campaigns outlining the impact of the food choices consumers make.
