Keynote Address by Janez Potocnik, European Commissioner for the Environment
Combating Food Waste in the EU brings together EU institutions, national governments, NGO’s, retailers, food and drink industry, packaging industry, compliance schemes and waste management industry to assess and further develop winning strategies to prevent and reduce food waste in the EU.
