European Student Challenge: Breaking new ground in plant-based proteins to help feed the planet
Translate this page
HOW TO FEED 9 BILLION PEOPLE IN 2050?
Global proteins demand is expected to soar 40% between now and 2030 only.
Relying essentially on the production of animal protein in order to meet this increased need is out of reach for our planet. It is therefore critical to strike a better balance between animal proteins and plant-based proteins in people's diets all over the world.
Hence the challenge: to break new ground and speed up the rate at which people are starting to adopt plant-based proteins in their diets throughout the world.
