The Food Standards Agency (FSA) has shared the transcript of FSA Chair Professor Susan Jebb’s speech to the Global Conference for Food Safety Regulation and Sustainability on Wednesday 10 November.

The speech focused on how climate change will impact on diet and what is the regulatory responsibility. Professor Jebb noted her disappointment at “how little of the conversation at COP 26 has focused on food”. She stated that “rising temperatures mean food and feed chains are at greater risk from pathogens and other hazards like aflatoxins, the toxic substances caused by fungus. Extreme weather conditions are disrupting harvests and supply chains, increasing the risk of food incidents and food crime.” Professor Jebb called for a less wasteful system, reducing the environmental harms of food production (particularly meat production and consumption), and “find solutions that are kinder to the planet and that will require a culture of innovation”.
