Summary: This paper provides an overview of the potential impact of climate change on food safety and microbial spoilage. Global warming is projected to increase the risk of microbial spoilage in food, such as contamination by mycotoxins and marine biotoxins, as well as environmental residuals and zoonotic diseases. The paper emphasizes the need for multidisciplinary approaches to study the potential effects of climate change on food and highlights the importance of preparedness by the food industry and policy makers.

Summary: Certified Reference Materials are crucial for food safety, trade restrictions, and consumer protection, especially in the case of popular beverages like coffee, cocoa, and tea. Researching the production of CRMs for these beverages helps identify areas for further study and improve their safety and quality. There is a clear need to develop CRMs and RM for these matrices and other analytes of interest, like chlorogenic acids, to ensure reliable measurements.

Summary: Traditionally, research on aquatic ecosystems focused on the quantity of dietary energy flow within food webs rather than food quality. Recent studies emphasize the importance of food quality for consumer growth and reproduction. This review evaluates the impact of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids as high-quality food sources in freshwater ecosystems and explores the effects of global change on these food sources and their transfer to higher trophic consumers.

Summary: Food safety tends to degrade after harvest, with losses not readily observable by market actors. This absence of incentives to address food safety losses specifically results in no correlation between price and aflatoxin contamination. Providing consumers with information about the correlation between visible grain attributes and contamination could improve the incentives for provision of food safety in the market.

Summary: Soil moisture-atmosphere coupling induces non-linear warming via the 'warmer climate - drier soil' feedback, exerting an accelerating effect on global warming and extreme high temperatures. The projection shows that SA-driven warming will exceed 0.5°C over extratropical landmasses by the end of the 21st Century, increasing the likelihood of extreme high temperatures.

Summary: This study examines how customers' perceptions of the quality and credibility of restaurants' food safety information influence their information adoption, trust in the restaurant, and purchase intention. It also explores the moderating effects of customers' food safety knowledge and health consciousness. The findings show that perceived information quality significantly affects perceived information credibility and has direct and indirect effects on information adoption, trust, and purchase intention. The study also confirms the moderating effects of health consciousness and food safety knowledge.

Summary: The study in Ireland found that consumer attitudes towards food waste directly impact the quantities of waste generated and the global warming effects. The survey revealed that 62.56% of consumers were 'uncaring' about food waste, while 37.44% were 'caring' and took measures to reduce waste.

Summary: Organisms' ability to adjust their physiological response to warming varies with body size, and chronic exposure to higher temperatures increases their sensitivity to acute heat. A mathematical model suggests that metabolic plasticity could amplify energy flux through ecosystems in response to warming, highlighting the importance of considering this factor in predicting global warming impacts on ecosystems.

Summary: Global warming has a significant impact on crop production in ecologically vulnerable areas. A study in China examined the potential changes in yield and yield gaps for winter wheat and maize under different climate scenarios. The results showed that maize was more adapted to climate warming than winter wheat, and future climate change could cause fluctuations in crop yields.

Summary: Food loss and waste is a growing concern globally, with a significant impact on the environment. To achieve sustainable development goals, reducing food waste in production and consumption is crucial. Life Cycle Assessment plays a key role in understanding the environmental impact of food waste, while research on alternative disposal technologies is necessary for reaching national and international sustainable goals.

Summary: This study analyzed the body temperature data of lizards and found that global warming has already hindered the lizards' ability to regulate their body temperature effectively, resulting in temperatures exceeding the optimal range. The accuracy and effectiveness of thermoregulation have decreased as a result.

Summary: Climate change has a significant impact on crop yields, particularly on maize. Simulated data shows that increases in global temperatures by 1.5 degrees C and 2 degrees C result in changes in maize yields and market prices. Under the 2 degrees C scenario, the risk of reduced maize yields is more severe, leading to a noticeable decline in total maize production in major producing regions worldwide.
