## How Was It Built

•
The Mediterranean Diet includes the balanced consumption of every food type, 
without any exclusion 
•
Environmental claims and labels aim to support the consumers in identifying the 
most «virtuos» product within the same food/product group. Different food groups should never be compared on the basis of their environmental impact since they have different functionalities.  

 
•
There is no «perfect food»: every choice should be taken on the basis of one's ethical values and taking the context into consideration 
•
The meat sector should commit to improving those critical aspects that still exist: 
this can only be achieved by focusing on mid-term goals. 

## Scientific And Educational Goals For The Future

•
Developing realistic scenarios for risk assessment and management of the meat productions 
•
Developing archive, data storing for quantitative assessment (LCA) 
•
Setting benchmark and transformation factor for realistic LCA  assessment 
•
Linking ecosystem services and protecion goal of the above scenarios at different temporal and spatial scales. 
•
Developing reliable sustanaible programs for meat production and farm 
organisation 
•
Set up certification label and corporate social responsability 
•
Educational, training  programs for helping cultural challeng in the meat chain 
sector
