Anna Taylor, Executive Director of the Food Foundation, said: “Today’s pledge to develop a ground-breaking new National Food Strategy will send a signal to the world that our food system needs radical reform in order to reign in its devastating impacts on our health and our planet. Let’s hope the businesses which put food on our plates see this as an exciting opportunity to be part of the solution.” TWEET@ #foodstrategy @food_strategy |
