1/3 of all food produced globally is wasted.
If food waste was a country, it would be the 3rd largest emitter of greenhouse gases.
The average UK family wastes £800 worth of food anually.
World hunger could be ended with less than a quarter of the food waste produced in the USA, UK and Europe.
We think this is a massive issue that causes problems for both the environment and the human race.

I see the trash bins overflowing at the end of every lunch hour and it confirms exactly why this matters. I am currently working on a proposal to show the administration exactly how much money we are throwing away each week.

it’s disgusting seeing how much gets dumped before we even get to the counter. do better.
Just donate the leftovers to a shelter or something. Its not hard to figure out.
Finally someone said it. The portions are way too big and half of it goes straight to the trash. Fix this.
TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY! College fees are high enough without them tossing out perfectly good food every lunch hour.
The amount of food thrown out at the cafeteria every single day is actually insane. Stop ordering so much if it just ends up in the bin.
