It has gained the attention of the general public, governments, and environmental scientists worldwide. To date, the main focus has been on plastics in the marine environment, but interest in the presence and effects of plastics in freshwaters has increased in the recent years. The occurrence of plastics within inland lakes and rivers, as well as their biota, has been demonstrated. Experiments with freshwater organisms have started to explore the direct and indirect effects resulting from plastic exposure. There is a clear need for further research, and a dedicated space for its dissemination. This book is devoted to highlighting current research from around the world on the prevalence, fate, and effects of plastic in freshwater environments. 606 $aResearch and information: general$2bicssc 607 $aMurntuluk / Catfish (Central NT, North NT SE52-03)$2aiatsisp 610 $aAfrica 610 $aAfrican great lakes 610 $aaquatic oligochetes 610 $aATR-FTIR spectroscopy 610 $aavoidance test 610 $abeach clean-up 610 $aBonnet Carre?

The current period of deprivation and anxiety, together with the coming global economic crisis, will usher in new consumer attitudes and behaviors that will change the nature of today's capitalism. There are signs today of a growing anti-consuming movement with five types of anti-consumerists: life simplifiers, degrowth activists, climate activists, food choosers, and conservation activists. Citizens will reexamine what they eat, how much they eat, and how all this is influenced by class issues and inequality. Consequently, the food supply chain network will have to change dramatically, adjusting to the new attitudes, perceptions and preferences of the consumers of a post-COVID-19 era. Innovation will play a vital role in modernizing the food supply chain to meet the new challenges of the upcoming global economy. The process "from farm to fork" as the holistic approach to the production and consumption of food will become a key factor for the sustainability and the progress of the food industry. This Special Issue is focused on 11 selected topics from different parts of the agrifood supply chain in view of the post-COVID-19 era expanding from innovative scientific insights and technological advances of natural resources, organic pollutants identification, new food product development, traceability, and packaging, chain management, to consumer's attitudes, and eating motivations, aiming to tackle the foreseen changes of global economy. 606 $aBiology, life sciences$2bicssc 606 $aFood & society$2bicssc 606 $aResearch & information: general$2bicssc 610 $aagri-food supply chain 610 $aanti-inflammatory 610 $aantithrombotic 610 $abakery snacks 610 $abioactive compounds 610 $aconfidence and satisfaction 610 $aconstructed wetlands 610 $aconsumer trust 610 $acritical factors 610 $aeco-innovation 610 $aedible films 610 $aedible insects 610 $aenvironment 610 $aessential oils 610 $afood packaging 610 $afunctional cookies 610 $aginger 610 $aGreece 610 $aimpact 610 $ain vitro nutritional functionality 610 $ainformation 610 $aknowledge 610 $alamb minced meat 610 $amarine aquaculture 610 $amarket research 610 $ameasurement instrument 610 $amechanical properties 610 $ametabolic biomarkers 610 $amicrobiology 610 $an/a 610 $aNbSs 610 $aolive paste 610 $aomega-3 fatty acids 610 $aopen innovation 610 $aorganic pollutants 610 $apackage information 610 $apassive sampling 610 $aperformance 610 $apersonal information 610 $aplastic 610 $apork meat 610 $apost COVID-19 period 610 $apost-COVID-19 610 $apost-COVID-19 era 610 $apostprandial bioactivity 610 $apractices 610 $aprocess information 610 $aproduct information 610 $aquality information 610 $aquestionnaire survey 610 $arecycling 610 $arosemary 610 $asensory evaluation 610 $asolid-phase extraction 610 $asustainability 610 $asustainable supply chain management 610 $atraceability 610 $atraditional foods 610 $awhey protein isolate 615 7$aBiology, life sciences 615 7$aFood & society 615 7$aResearch & information: general 700 $aSkalkos$b Dimitris$4edt$01326489 702 $aSkalkos$b Dimitris$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910576878203321 996 $aInnovative Agrifood Supply Chain in the Post-COVID 19 Era$93037558 997 $aUNINA
