This paper demonstrates that limiting red meat availability in a university cafeteria reduced food-related greenhouse gas emissions by about one-third. It provides a practical case study showing how dietary changes can contribute to climate…

Villanova, Marcio

This paper addresses the supplier evidence gap for Brazilian companies under EU regulations (CSDDD, CBAM, EUDR). It argues that market access does not guarantee compliance and introduces a framework for building defensible evidence on origi…
