One key new partnership in 2017 for action at both the private sector and individual countries level was the launch of the Food and Land-Use Coalition (FOLU) at the United National General Assembly, co-hosted by EAT. FOLU is a self-governing coalition composed of over 30 organizations established to transform the global food and land use systems.
It uses the EAT-Lancet dietary guidelines and planetary boundaries to develop global and national science-based targets, and pathways towards them. This work will be used to iteratively inform and raise the ambition of the private sector.
FOLU will also go deep into the policy, regulatory environment, and businesses of individual countries. Its efforts will start with Colombia, Indonesia and Ethiopia, and could later include the Nordics, Australia and Europe.
Tips to get more protein
The best way to combat a protein deficiency? Work on getting more protein in your meals. Romito offers up the following advice:
Include protein at every meal. Romito doesn’t recommend trying to cram all your protein into one meal. Instead, she says it’s best to split it up throughout the day. “If you get protein at every meal, it makes it easier to hit your total by the end of the day.”

Most people think success is about adding more.
More projects. More contacts. More noise.
In reality, the breakthroughs often come from subtraction.
Removing the one offer that drains you.
Declining the meeting that adds no value.
Letting go of the client who doesn’t respect your work.
If you feel stuck, ask yourself:
What can I remove to make everything else work better?

In 2007, ‘locavore’ – a person who only eats food grown or produced within a 100-mile (161km) radius – was the Oxford Word of the Year. Now, 15 years later, University of Sydney researchers urge it to trend once more . They have found that 19 percent of global food system greenhouse gas emissions are caused by transportation.
This is up to seven times higher than previously estimated, and far exceeds the transport emissions of other commodities. For example, transport accounts for only seven percent of industry and utilities emissions.
