ACSS Climate Change and Consumer Behaviour Working Group

About

The FSA has a strong interest in horizon scanning likely responses to climate change and understanding where it might impact its work. This working group helps to highlight and discover trends in climate change in order to aid the FSA in horizon scanning.

The working group have completed phase 1 and 2 of the work. Phase 1 involved holding an expert engagement workshop, to identify behaviours that consumers may engage in in response to climate change concerns. Phase 2 involved running a workshop with FSA policy and operational leads to understand implications of these identified behaviours across FSA areas of work, and mitigating activity currently underway. The final report ' The impact of climate change on consumer food behaviours: Identification of potential trends and impacts' is available below, under papers.
