Zusammenfassung
[EN] This work evaluates and discusses the greenhouse gas (GHG)
emissions reduction potential of agroecological policies implemented
in public food procurement for school canteens. Using
a life cycle analysis (LCA) methodology (cradle-to-grave
approach) and the information gathered from the Red
Municipal de Comedores Escolares (Local Network of School
Canteens) in the municipality of Ames (A Coruña, Galicia,
Spain), the results show how organic production, dietary change
(less animal protein), seasonal consumption, and packaging
reduction, among other measures, can mitigate the climate
impact of school meals. The food policies implemented in
Ames have allowed mitigating the GHG emissions of local
school canteens by 13.4%. Under realistic conditions, this reduction
could rise to 40.6% should the agroecological transformation
of the food system continue to advance.
