WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:21.240 Hello everyone, so next talk, we have Pierre here who we talk to us about some open 00:21.240 --> 00:35.320 food facts. Hello everyone, so by show of and already knows open food facts somewhat, okay, 00:35.320 --> 00:42.240 so half of the rule, so we will briefly introduce open food facts for the other 00:42.240 --> 00:51.680 story. By show of hand, who has used Nutri score to choose the products they eat in the supermarket? 00:51.680 --> 00:58.600 Okay, most of you, at least in the important countries, so we will show, actually, open food 00:58.600 --> 01:03.560 facts was part of Nutri's cost story, so I will tell a little bit about that, but let's get 01:03.560 --> 01:09.640 into the menu, I mean, open food facts is all about menus, right? So, I just talk about 01:09.640 --> 01:16.640 open food facts and open prices, or latest project, but you may not know of, then I will dive 01:16.640 --> 01:22.240 into open product facts, since this year's topic is about consumption, not just food, but even 01:22.240 --> 01:29.240 beyond food, cosmetics and other products. And finally, I will give you a state of open 01:29.240 --> 01:34.280 food activity, what's new in the community, what we have achieved this past year, and 01:34.280 --> 01:41.480 that's actually very exciting. So, open food facts, open food facts, we created it out of 01:41.480 --> 01:46.200 the question, how do you pick the right zero package in the supermarket? You have a lot of 01:46.200 --> 01:51.880 packets, if you want to pick the right one for your child, it's hard, you have to flip the 01:51.880 --> 01:56.000 packets, in most countries, you don't have Nutri score, at least when we started, we didn't 01:56.000 --> 02:01.480 have Nutri score yet, and you have to look at being redundantly, the Nutriation table for 02:01.480 --> 02:06.920 me, it's pure abstract art, you have to be a food scientist to understand and to make sense 02:06.920 --> 02:12.280 out of it, and ingredient list that you can't read. And yet, the impact on public health 02:12.280 --> 02:18.920 is massive. It's estimated that 3% of the European GDP is wiped out by the consequences 02:18.920 --> 02:28.920 of overweight and obesity. It's the first cause after tobacco and gun violence of a societal 02:29.000 --> 02:34.760 impact, and yet the solutions are simple, things like labeling, transparency can change again. 02:37.320 --> 02:42.120 And the open food fact is all about empowering citizens to make an impact on their 02:42.120 --> 02:47.720 whole health, on the planetary health, and on the food system as large. When you fill 02:47.720 --> 02:56.120 this important in the supermarket, we say, don't panic, organize, basically open food 02:56.200 --> 03:04.520 fact is about organizing to transfer the food system. If people could basically map the word knowledge 03:04.520 --> 03:10.200 with Wikipedia, if they could do that with the word street with open street map, we set out to 03:10.200 --> 03:16.680 basically do the same with products that we consume every day. The mission of NGO is to enable 03:16.680 --> 03:23.000 everyone to measure and transform the impact of consumption on your health and the planet's health. 03:23.080 --> 03:30.840 How do we do it? Basically, we are non-profit, so we are not a startup, we are NGO, we are community. 03:31.720 --> 03:38.280 We believe that the problems are shared across countries, so all tools are global, and the solutions 03:38.280 --> 03:45.640 are open. We also, of course, have open methodologies, open data, open source, even the scores 03:45.640 --> 03:52.360 we believe should be open. And we like also to partners with other organizations to increase our impact. 03:53.000 --> 04:00.760 We have an API. We are also very proud to tell you that the community was designated a digital 04:00.760 --> 04:07.640 public this year by the UN. We help with good health, responsible consumption and climate action. 04:10.600 --> 04:17.240 So what is it concretely? Open food fact is a website database where you can find four million 04:17.240 --> 04:24.200 products that were added by users, contributors, but also the food industry, which has started to 04:24.200 --> 04:31.400 see our impact and decided that they could cooperate. So data transparency is becoming the 04:31.400 --> 04:38.280 norm, even people like Nestle and Unidiver are starting to realize that they can't push back, 04:38.280 --> 04:45.400 they need to cooperate. And how do we collect that? We use the mobile app, so where you can have 04:45.480 --> 04:51.160 Nutri score, green score, and you can also take pictures of products in your country. 04:51.160 --> 04:56.440 If a product is missing, you have a port to add it, so that the next person has to 04:56.440 --> 05:03.640 you benefit from your effort. And that way we could compute four million scores on four million products. 05:05.240 --> 05:09.720 So Nutri score, green score, it's just a barcode scan, it's very easy. 05:10.680 --> 05:18.760 And basically what we achieved is that when we started, we discovered a paper called the five 05:18.760 --> 05:24.760 corals score, that was the old name of the Nutri score. And we started computing it, the community 05:24.760 --> 05:29.400 started computing in our own products. So when you see the first photo I showed on the 05:29.400 --> 05:38.440 zero super market here, the contributor started adding a score to the products, what it would 05:38.440 --> 05:43.400 look like if they had scores. And a couple of years later, actually in France, in Belgium, 05:43.400 --> 05:48.440 in many of the countries, you have Nutri score everywhere. So this shows that basically digital 05:49.400 --> 05:54.200 solutions and open source can have a real life impact on policy. And that's really, 05:55.320 --> 06:02.120 really exciting that we go from just a bunch of Dix computing scores to actually a real policy impact. 06:02.600 --> 06:10.680 So yeah, a little zoom. In news also, with Nutri score, this year we introduced the new Nutri score 06:10.680 --> 06:17.880 formula following the formula of processor IRberg. So it's more, products will have 06:17.880 --> 06:24.600 worse grade from most of them. Unfortunately, it's still not compulsory. So because some 06:24.600 --> 06:31.480 European countries are blocking, but basically some of our ambassadors are mobilizing for something 06:31.480 --> 06:39.400 Latvia to create petitions and to bring it forward. So yeah, I'm going to skip quickly on that. 06:39.400 --> 06:47.720 It's really, or impact with Nutri score, the really cool thing is that beyond just digital, 06:47.720 --> 06:53.400 you have it on the packaging. And you start seeing new products being reformulated. So you see 06:53.400 --> 06:58.840 the new product being introduced, being actually healthier. So even if you don't use a digital app, 06:58.920 --> 07:10.520 you benefit from the impact of open food facts. The second score we show is Nova. On ultra-process 07:10.520 --> 07:15.400 food, the short story is that you should avoid anything Nova 4 as much as possible, 07:15.400 --> 07:22.760 because it's related to increase the risk of cancer of diabetes. So it's typically list of 07:22.760 --> 07:29.960 ingredients you can't understand. So for instance, on tomato, you have tomatoes, which is a regular 07:29.960 --> 07:37.800 and ingredients up to the ketchup, which usually has a bunch of additives. And the first score we 07:37.800 --> 07:43.800 show is the green score to have environmental impact. So we are based on what is called life-cycle 07:43.800 --> 07:49.240 assessment. So very complex, very expensive computation, but we're open source by the French 07:49.240 --> 07:56.040 government. And then we add specific points, a positive or negative based on the product. 07:58.600 --> 08:05.000 So know that you have all these data based, what can we do with it? We can do really fun stuff 08:05.000 --> 08:12.600 like for instance, we just compare Fanta across Europe. So since open food facts is across time and space, 08:12.600 --> 08:18.360 we just looked at Fanta. And so we realized that in Italy, for instance, Fanta is 12 08:18.360 --> 08:24.440 around 12 percent food. But if you look at Serbia, Fanta goes down to 3 percent fruits. 08:26.440 --> 08:31.720 And in Portugal, you have 8 percent fruits, so that's a bit better, but you have a high high 08:31.720 --> 08:37.160 high fructose concept in it. And in the French island of Reno, you have actually zero 08:37.160 --> 08:44.200 percent fruit in Fanta. Based on the processing plant, it's made in. We can do also fun stuff 08:44.280 --> 08:50.760 using the European trustability codes. We can make a map of factory and you can see what products 08:50.760 --> 08:55.560 are made in the same factory as your products. And you will realize that expensive brands are 08:55.560 --> 09:01.800 oftentimes producing the same factory. You can even, like the first, my first slide, you can actually 09:01.800 --> 09:07.640 visualize it on a graph. So you can pick very easily the best errors for you. So you can actually 09:08.280 --> 09:17.160 create your own graph in like one minute, one or two minutes. You can also, we started like a year 09:17.160 --> 09:22.440 on a half a goal collecting prices. I see a half I learned in the room. So it's actually 09:22.440 --> 09:27.960 open price. It was the first project created entirely by the community and not the permanent team. 09:29.000 --> 09:36.040 And it's all about basically answering what, so we, for open fact, was what's in my food, open price 09:36.920 --> 09:44.440 at what price is my food. So open price is a crop so that the basis of prices. We don't scrape 09:44.440 --> 09:51.640 because of legal reason, but we have already achieved around 200,000 prices across the planet. 09:51.640 --> 10:00.840 So it's impressive in such a short time. And you can visualize prices in near your home or over time. 10:00.840 --> 10:06.680 So we can see inflation, we can see shrink inflation, and we can see all of those kinds of things. 10:06.680 --> 10:12.440 It's very easy to contribute a price. And we even have no some artificial intelligence 10:13.160 --> 10:19.640 to allow you to upload either a photo of a supermarket with price, price tags or receipts. 10:19.640 --> 10:26.840 And then we help you extract the data, the community validates, and the price are added. 10:27.240 --> 10:34.920 So I'm going to accelerate a little bit since there are only five minutes left. And so we have 10:34.920 --> 10:42.040 a very fun challenge every month. So I invite you to join the fun, a couple of months ago it was 10:42.040 --> 10:50.280 Nutella, but we are doing new films every month. We also have a platform for producers to encourage 10:50.600 --> 10:56.440 producers to improve their product. So we help them get a better Nutri score by telling them, 10:56.440 --> 11:02.280 you could reduce sugar a little bit to go from Nutri score to Nutri score A. So we don't stop 11:02.280 --> 11:09.160 at basically informing consumers, we try also to help producers get better. And actually we have 11:09.160 --> 11:15.400 already a lot of friends who have shared as open data there are product catalogs, which is really cool. 11:16.360 --> 11:23.160 We really hope that by collecting data and using creating open data we are able to basically 11:23.160 --> 11:31.880 change consumer behaviors but also change a producer supply. Now I'm going to change topics. 11:31.880 --> 11:37.640 So we talked about food. I'm going to talk about our latest project called Open Product Facts. 11:38.360 --> 11:45.400 And it's really about extending the life of objects. We are surrounded by objects basically. 11:46.600 --> 11:53.400 And some of us, we don't like them anymore. They don't no longer serve us a useful purpose or 11:53.400 --> 12:00.040 we don't like them anymore. And they end up in the incinerator and we buy new stuff to replace them. 12:00.040 --> 12:07.080 So Open Product Facts is really about creating the data to ensure that we give products a 12:07.080 --> 12:14.680 second a third life that we increase their life span using facilitated circular solution. 12:15.400 --> 12:22.840 So we show the repairability index. We show carbon emissions. We have an experiment to give 12:23.400 --> 12:29.320 options for donations or basically circular solutions for these specific products. 12:30.680 --> 12:36.760 We have a TVNU system also to allow you to model anything. So the projector, this microphone, 12:36.760 --> 12:41.880 or anything that you can possibly imagine. And finally, if you have the Open Facts up and 12:41.880 --> 12:47.800 you have updated your return key, you can actually scan non-food items. You can scan cosmetics 12:47.800 --> 12:53.720 and you can scan anything that has a barcode. And you can, of course, add products to the database. 12:53.720 --> 12:59.560 So it's not just food anymore. Open Product Facts is really a long term challenge. 12:59.560 --> 13:04.440 Since basically the circular economy is fragmented by category. You don't screw cycle 13:04.520 --> 13:11.160 the smartphone or a long bar in the same way. It's fragmented by basically the life of the products. 13:11.160 --> 13:17.800 So we use recycling repair. Those are different circular actors. So the game is going to be 13:17.800 --> 13:25.640 to have a catalogue of all of those in a single place. There's also a geographical fragmentation, 13:25.640 --> 13:31.720 not the same in France, Germany or even in parts of France, for instance. And finally, 13:31.800 --> 13:38.120 there's an absence of compatibility between actors. So it's a nightmare at the moment. 13:39.320 --> 13:43.800 And we estimate that there's one billion products in the world with a barcode. 13:43.800 --> 13:49.800 For reference, we have four million. So we have still one percent done. And so we are going to 13:49.800 --> 13:54.760 need a lot of help, especially since the products, most of the products that are non-food, 13:54.760 --> 14:01.080 don't have a barcode after their bought. And so we need some advanced techniques to solve it. 14:02.440 --> 14:08.520 We also have open duty and open pet food. You can ask about those on the stand and we also need 14:08.520 --> 14:14.440 help on the on those topics. So our latest milestone, and I'm going to go very, very quickly. 14:14.440 --> 14:20.920 After a basic computer, you'll just call another. We are on our four million products this year. 14:22.280 --> 14:29.640 180 countries, 7 million people use no use the open effect app every month. We are on our 14:29.640 --> 14:43.480 1000, 1000 reuse in our community. So basically, I'm going to skip. We crossed the 200,000 prices 14:43.480 --> 14:48.840 last year. The good news is also the growth is more international. It's not from anymore. 14:49.800 --> 14:54.680 We need help on infrastructure. We made a steady progress, not to be on backup, 14:54.680 --> 15:01.080 automation, etc. But we have a lot of bots to fight. The web team also included 15:03.800 --> 15:09.000 banning radiance. So if you don't like pineapple, you'll be able to ban pineapple from the 15:09.000 --> 15:16.840 mobile app and the web. So you can, you know, fully customize what you care about. 15:18.760 --> 15:23.960 Open prices, the notable thing is that we are using more artificial intelligence. 15:25.320 --> 15:34.920 Open beauty fact, banning radiance. Sorry. Yeah. Also, we will, yeah. Robot off about machine learning 15:35.960 --> 15:42.120 and we we made a lot of progress on nutrition extraction. Sorry, I'm going to basically skip 15:42.120 --> 15:54.040 to the good part immediately. Sorry. Sorry about that. I'm going to, and yeah, I'm using 15:54.040 --> 16:02.920 a non-free solution. I apologize for that. So the next step will be open fact explorer. We are 16:03.960 --> 16:09.320 rewriting open to fact completely as a front end. So we need a lot of help in JavaScript. 16:10.760 --> 16:16.680 Yeah, a nice story about also all our users around a thousand or scientific impact 16:17.640 --> 16:23.880 a thousand. And finally, a call for help. Basically, we need all the volunteer help. We can, 16:23.880 --> 16:30.920 we can take in a bit, Python, JavaScript, machine learning. Every help is welcome. 16:30.920 --> 16:34.280 You can actually join the stupid year. Thank you so much.
