Food waste initiatives at consumption level: a categorization -- Conclusion. 330 $aThis book presents what is the state-of-the-art in the field of the food waste phenomenon at consumer level, including a thorough literature review, and it highlights trends in the field. It provides a comprehensive starting point for future research. Food waste represents a major public policy issue, which is included in the UN Sustainable Development Goals. In this context, the present work identifies the most important definitions given to food waste and its environmental, social and economic impacts. With a comprehensive literature review that covers a forty-year time span (1977-2017), this book highlights the multiple, complex facets of food waste at the consumer level. Drawing from behavioural and marketing theories, it proposes a new theoretical framework with the aim to better explain food waste behaviour. Extensive research is being carried out on the main worldwide initiatives (both public and private) and food policies aimed at tackling the phenomenon. . 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Environmental Science,$x2191-5547 606 $aHuman geography 606 $aEnvironmental education 606 $aMotivation research (Marketing) 606 $aPublic policy 606 $aIndustrial management?Environmental aspects 606 $aHuman Geography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X26000 606 $aEnvironmental and Sustainability Education$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O48000 606 $aConsumer Behavior$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/513060 606 $aPublic Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911060 606 $aSustainability Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/515040 615 0$aHuman geography. 615 0$aEnvironmental education. 615 0$aMotivation research (Marketing) 615 0$aPublic policy. 615 0$aIndustrial management?Environmental aspects. 615 14$aHuman Geography. 615 24$aEnvironmental and Sustainability Education. 615 24$aConsumer Behavior. 615 24$aPublic Policy. 615 24$aSustainability Management. 676 $a628.445 700 $aPrincipato$b Ludovica$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01059336 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299384803321 996 $aFood Waste at Consumer Level$92505326 997 $aUNINA
