Large amounts of food waste are generated along the whole value chain/Food chain. Until Food finally reaches the end consumers for various reasons 1.3 billion tons of food are getting lost on the way from food production to the household.
In Germany the households are responsible for 61 percent of the food waste, which is the major part of the supply chain. The European Union aims to reduce the mass of food losses by 50 percent until the year 2020. Therefore, it is important to develop strategies to reduce food waste. Therefore research has to be done to specifically reduce the amount of food waste originated in the households. In this context the best-before-date and the use-by-date are very important. The European Union stipulates that the food manufacturer have to label foodstuffs with one of these Dates.

Like all public international law treaties, the Paris Climate Accords rely on national law for their implementation. The success of the agreement therefore depends, to a large extent, on the stepstaken or not taken by national governments and legislators as well as on the instruments and mechanisms chosen for this task. Against this background, the present article compares different approaches to the implementation of the Paris Agreement, using court decisions as a means to assess their (legal) effectiveness.
