Drivers and barriers towards healthy and environmentally friendly eating habits in Switzerland

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer, Ivo Philippe Baur, Ralph Hansmann

Food consumption in Switzerland is the activity with the largest environmental impact, which also contributes significantly to rising health costs. Therefore, it is a crucial societal aim to better understand the drivers and barriers to healthy and sustain ...

, ,

A survey of 620 Swiss households was conducted to investigate the determinants of purchases of organic fruits and vegetables and identify subjectively perceived requirements for more environmentally friendly and healthier food consumption. An integrative b ...

A causal framework for classical statistical estimands in failure-time settings with competing events

Mats Julius Stensrud

In failure-time settings, a competing event is any event that makes it impossible for the event of interest to occur. For example, cardiovascular disease death is a competing event for prostate cancer death because an individual cannot die of prostate canc ...

2020

In time-to-event settings, the presence of competing events complicates the definition of causal effects. Here we propose the new separable effects to study the causal effect of a treatment on an event of interest. The separable direct effect is the treatm ...

Microstructured Fibers for the Production of Food

Véronique Michaud, Francesco Stellacci, Fabien Sorin, Federica Sordo, Yunpeng Qu, Emma-Rose Janecek

Food engineering faces the difficult challenge of combining taste, i.e., tailoring texture and rheology of food matrices with the balanced intake of healthy nutrients. In materials science, fiber suspensions and composites have been developed as a versatil ...

Implications of the 1.5-Degree Target for Lifestyles

At current emission level, humanity would have used up their remaining carbon footprint budget from now to eternity within four years or less, when compared to the emissions compatible with keeping global warming within a limit of 1.5°C. Therefore, zero ne ...

Assessing spatial temporal patterns of ecosystem services in Switzerland

Jérôme Chenal, Martí Bosch Padrós, Rémi Jaligot

Despite the importance of understanding the historical dynamics of ecosystem services (ES), littleresearch has focused on a historical, spatially explicit, assessment of ES supply. This research is aimed at understanding the spatial patterns and potential ...

From Self-Sufficiency to Food Security. Notes on the Swiss Experimental Heritage

Elena Cogato Lanza

Through this lecture Elena Cogato Lanza presents the Swiss Plan Wahlen, a regime of intensive food production and food rationing, introduced during the Second World War in an effort to increase food self-sufficiency of the nation. The talk establishes a de ...
