The futurist food entrepreneur Júlia Dalmadi, who is pursuing a no-waste mission, introduced herself in the podcast of former president János Áder entitled Blue Planet, published on Monday, which can also be viewed on the most popular video sharing portal.

Júlia Dalmadi said that her title means that she constantly monitors trends, challenges, and efforts to solve problems in the food industry, but “looks further into the future”, as one can already think about “how the food will look in 2050- on our plate”.

The chairman of the board of trustees of the Kék Bolygó Climate Protection Foundation called it a fundamental problem that a third of the food produced is not consumed, it is thrown away, and a lot of food ends up in the garbage in Hungary as well. The question is how to save them and how to create value from food waste, he added.

Júlia Dalmadi explained: although we tend to hear that the population of the planet is growing and that it is a problem to supply the growing population with food, in fact we are already producing enough for everyone, but the food is not equally distributed in the world. Most people tried to find a solution for how we could produce even more, but food production takes a lot of farmland, water, and resources, and these are finite, the food futurist pointed out.
