food waste

“Project Drawdown last year said that food waste was the number one thing That we could do to combat global climate change.”

“It's true. And that equates to about eighty billion pounds of food.”

“If I can reduce food waste by 15%, that would be enough food to feed about twenty-five million Americans.”

“So about 60% of all food waste in the U.S. Comes from restaurants, hotels, grocery stores, and food service companies. That's according to the nonprofit Feeding America.”

“Today we throw away 40% of the food we produce on the planet, that this is responsible for about 10% of greenhouse gases emission, and that still nearly a billion people go to bed hungry every night.”
