FOOD PACKAGING: MAKING THE BEST OF A BAD SITUATION | Vanessa Grondin | TEDxLaval

Food packaging is all around us. Its development in the past 50 years has been instrumental for the improvement of food quality and security.
Where we gained in practicality and security, we lost in our capacity to manage waste materials and our environmental footprint.
Vanessa Grondin is a food engineer who has worked in the food industry for over ten years. Her interests lie in innovative packaging materials and food safety which, beyond the preservation process and packaging integrity, also considers the product lifecycle, including packaging breakdown.
Involved in her community, she is a member of the board of Moisson Québec, and is president and co-founder of the Executive MBA Alumni at Université Laval. She served on the organizing committee for the 2016 Junior Chamber International World Congress, which was awarded the Fidéide for Business Event of the Year by the Québec City Chamber of Commerce in 2017.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

I don’t know how this lecture was supported by the TED. It turns out we have amateur every where even in a clever platform. With all due respect, but this lady is food engineering as she confessed, so she has now deep knowledge about packaging and its correlation to the pollution. This lecture is full of misinformation, fraud, and misleading because she is blindly repeats the some useless industry and some totalitarian politicians. Hope to make packaging and its impacts on the world more clear.
