Low-impact Eaters are consumers whose eating habits are designed to reduce the negative impact of their food and drink consumption on the environment. Their behaviour is part of a wider shift that is taking hold in the mainstream food and drink market.

 In the US, veganism has grown by 500% since 2014, according to Global Data. ‘Vegan products are capturing the imagination of consumers on health-related as well as ethical and religious grounds,’ says Emma Clifford, senior food and drink analyst at Mintel.

Low-impact Eaters use a variety of strategies to minimise their carbon footprint. San Francisco entrepreneur Michael Selden is the co-founder of Finless Foods, a biotech company that creates lab-grown marine animal food products to tackle over-fishing. Flemming Hansen co-runs Stedsans in the Woods in Sweden, a sustainable permaculture farm that aims to make food with the minimum use of packaging, transport and fossil fuels. Sophia Cheng is a global food activist and digital nomad who runs the ethical travel blog With Many Roots alongside If Not Us Then Who?, a US-registered charity.

Low-impact Eaters is part of our new Food & Drink Tribes Report. If you have already purchased the Low-impact Eaters report, you can watch the original case study video below - you can find the password to the video inside your PDF report.
