Abstract
With growing global awareness of issues derived from man-made changes in the
environment, consumers are beginning to make purchasing choices driven by
ethical considerations. This report looks at the impact sustainability has had
on the food and drinks industry and on some of the ingredients, and describes
the current regulatory situation. It points out sustainability strategies
adopted by leading players in the industry, lists a number of non-governmental
organizations involved in sustainability initiatives, and offers a future
outlook based on these findings.
