Sustainable Sourcing: Cooking with Care

Food for Thought overview

Consumerism not only has a negative impact on our wallets, but more seriously on the environment. As the demand for goods increases, the requirement to produce these goods also increases. This leads to more pollutant emissions, increased land-use and deforestation, and accelerated climate change. Beyond its moral responsibility, sustainable sourcing also benefits the quality of the dishes you create. “It’s basic,” says COMO Group's Head Chef Dan Moran, “the closer you source ingredients from, the fresher and tastier they are. Where possible, we also try and work head to fin, snout to tail”.
