Climate change affects eating habits, causing concerns about global food system stability, declining food security and dietary quality, and promoting eco-friendly diets like the “climatarian” diet, as well as the adoption of protein sources that are both innovative and sustainable. The impact of eco-anxiety and food neophobia on appetite also raises questions about whether a more climate-conscious generation will change food choices. Studies suggest that changes in dietary habits due to the climate crisis present opportunities for exploration rather than abstinence, revealing shifts in food preferences and consumption rates. This special issue seeks papers exploring how the climate crisis affects food and beverage choices and consumption. Submissions can use observational, experimental, or trial-based approaches and employ qualitative, quantitative, or mixed methods. Innovative and timely contributions will be prioritized.

Possible topic includes, but not limited to:

• Climate change’s impact on food choices and dietary patterns across cultures.
• The relationship between climate change, food availability, and nutritional status of consumers.
• Climate change’s effects on food security, dietary diversity, and human health outcomes.
• Promoting sustainable food choices and reducing the environmental impact through education and awareness-raising campaigns.
• The cultural, social, economic, and psychological factors influencing dietary patterns and food choices in the context of climate change.
• The effectiveness of policy interventions in promoting sustainable food choices and reducing the carbon footprint of food production.
• Addressing climate change through food waste reduction and sustainable packaging to influence dietary behaviour and food choices.
• The impact of alternative protein sources, such as plant and cell-based proteins, on reducing the environmental impact of food production and changing dietary patterns.
• Communication strategies for food industries to promote sustainable food choices and reduce the carbon footprint of food production.
• The effect of climate change on traditional food systems, including indigenous food systems, and how it influences dietary behaviour and food choices.
