Abstract
In the original article, there was a mistake in the legend for Figure 2 as published. It was not written as millions of kg in MFW(kgCO2eq). The correct legend appears below. Figure 2. Metabolic Food Waste corresponding to Excess Body Fat from FBS commodities in overweight and obese population expressed as (A) GHG emission, MFW(millions kgCO2eq); (B) water consumed, MFW(millions m3); and (C) land used, MFW(millions m2). EU, Europe; NAO, North America and Oceania; LA, Latin America; IA, Industrialized Asia; NAWCA, North Africa, West and Central Asia; SSEA, South and Southeast Asia; SSA, Sub-Saharan Africa. In the original article, there was an error in Table 1 as published. It was written MFW(tons of food) instead of MFW(kg of food). The correct title appears below. Table 1. Metabolic Food Waste [MFW(kg of food)] corresponding to Excess Body Fat by BMI categories (OW, Overweight; OB, Obesity). In the original article, there was an error. The values of MFW(tons of food) were expressed in gigatons instead of millions of tons. Corrections have been made to the Abstract: The overall impact of MFW(tons of food) in the world corresponds to 140.7 million tons associated to overweight and obesity. Between the different regions, EUis responsible of the greatest amount of MFW(tons of food) volume (39.2 million tons), followed by NAO (32.5 million tons).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
