Christmas is a time for togetherness, traditions and generous meals – but also for increasing amounts of food waste. At the same time, a national debate is under way in Sweden about stricter targets to halve food waste.

Christmas and New Year are approaching, and soon many of us will have the chance to catch our breath. When I look back at our 39th year, what I feel most of all is gratitude. Gratitude for all the knowledge developed within our team, for the collaborations with those of you who are close to CTF – and for the curiosity and willingness to contribute that so clearly permeate our work.
Throughout the year, we’ve had several experiences that truly demonstrated the strength of our research.
