| Popis: | In this paper, we face the serious problem of food health hazard, also in connection with global food production scarcity and feeding sustainability, in view of important environmental issues and the severe incumbent climate change. Specifically, our innovative risk management approach considers cooperation among producers of vegan and non-vegan food, a strong commitment more and more observed, recently, in technologically advanced western countries. The novelty of our work consists in proposing possible quantitative agreements among complementary food producers, usually non-interacting, in order to develop a sustainable healthy food production for human population—also characterized by low impact on the planet. Another new feature of our approach lies in using coopetition and game theory together; we show, quantitatively, how to conjugate human health defense, environmental defense, economic interests and less government spending, needs which usually appear in contrast with each other. Another point of our coopetitive approach is the suggestion of an easier way to entry the global market for vegan food producers. Meanwhile, our model suggests to big producers/sellers of non-vegan food a way to smoothly and rapidly transit toward more sustainable production. Technically, we propose an innovative exemplary complex agreement among global food sellers and small (but strongly sustainable and innovative) vegan food producers. Moreover, our model implies a general saving for the countries, by mitigating the health expenditures. The result of our mathematical study suggests a novel win–win solution for global economy, world environment and governments, while improving human population sustainability and climate change effects. |
