Food is crucial for survival. With the increasing population, food production has risen significantly. However, food distribution remains unequal. Shockingly, approximately 2.5 billion tons of food are wasted annually. While we can't completely eliminate food waste, we can certainly minimize it and repurpose wasted food for generating power, creating fertilizer, and other useful purposes. Food waste contributes directly to accelerating climate change, making it imperative to address this issue.

?? International Day of Awareness of Food Loss and Waste (IDAFLW) ?? Food loss refers to the food lost from production up to before the retail level. Food waste pertains to the food lost at retail and consumption levels. Did you know that nearly one-third of all food produced globally is lost or wasted? This year's IDAFLW theme, 'Climate Finance for Food Loss and Waste Reduction,' highlights how investing in sustainable food systems is crucial to mitigating climate change and ensuring food security. ??? This video from FAO gives a good capture. https://lnkd.in/ebnTS5Rc By reducing food loss from farm to fork, we can combat hunger, cut greenhouse gas emissions, and support a more resilient global food system. Let’s work together—governments, private sectors, and consumers—to make every bite count! ??Buy the food you can eat and store. ??Cook only the quantity you need. ??Serve the right amount of food. ??Avoid leftovers as much as you can. ???Compost unavoidable leftovers. ??Plant some vegetables. ???Tell others #IDAFLW2024 #FoodSecurity #SustainableDevelopment #ClimateAction #ZeroWaste #FoodSystems #CircularEconomy

Today is the #InternationalDayOfAwarenessOfFoodLossAndWaste with the theme: "Climate Finance for Food Loss and Waste Reduction". Did you know that approximately one-third of the food produced globally is wasted every year? If we invest in #solutions that address food loss and waste, we not only mitigate climate change but also ensure #FoodSecurity, #ImproveNutrition, and #PromoteSustainableDevelopment. Let's come together to build a place where no food is wasted, and no person goes hungry! ???? #InternationalDay #FoodLoss #FoodWaste #ClimateFinance #Sustainability #FoodSecurity #SDGs

?? Did you know preventing food waste is the single greatest solution to fighting climate change? ?? Our current food system has a profound impact on our planet. The amount of food wasted globally could feed every undernourished person on the planet (!) ??? When we waste food, we also waste all the energy ?? and water ?? it takes to grow, harvest, transport, and package it. The emissions from our food systems can be significantly reduced by cutting down on food waste. ?? Annually, about 14 million tons of cacaofruits ?? are harvested worldwide. Previously, 70% of the cacaofruit—up to 10 million tons—was discarded. Now, not only are the seeds (beans) used, but also the fresh, juicy pulp is processed into delicious ingredients. ?? Join us in this movement to reduce food waste, fight climate change, and create a more sustainable world. Together, we can make a difference. ???? https://lnkd.in/dVdH8mEE #ClimateChange #Sustainability #FoodWaste #CabosseNaturals #UFA #UpcycledFood #Cacaofruit #EnvironmentalImpact #ZeroWaste

Reducing food loss and waste is crucial for combating climate change. Did you know that globally, about one-third of all food produced is not consumed due to loss and wastage along the supply chain? This results in a staggering 8% of greenhouse gas emissions being attributed to food loss and waste. It's imperative that we address this issue as part of our climate change mitigation efforts. Without prioritizing the reduction of food loss and waste, our efforts to combat climate change will not be as effective. One of the key areas to focus on is improving the efficiency of our food supply chain, especially in traditional food supply chains managed by smallholder farmers in developing regions. Inefficiencies along the supply chain, including limited adoption of post-harvest technologies, contribute significantly to food loss in these areas. Let's work together to make our food system more sustainable and resilient while also making meaningful progress in fighting climate change. #foodloss #foodwaste #climateaction #climatecrisis #climatemitigation

Some easy steps to take here toward an important cause.

When we waste food, we contribute to climate change, and it circles back to impact us all; higher prices, scarce food, and struggling farmers. Want to know more? Head over to our latest blog post to learn more about how food waste can lead to climate change and affects food production, and what we can all do to make a difference. Let’s take action. https://lnkd.in/dXkH_ew5 #climatechange #foodwaste #protectourfood #climatesmartagriculture #stopfoodwaste

"If food waste were a country, it would be the third largest emitting country in the world." As we conclude the International Day of Awareness of Food Loss and Waste, watch what Marco Mazziotti, Director for EU Direct Funding at Comune di Milano, has to suggest on what you can do to reduce food waste. ?? #FoodWasteEU #FLWDay #FoodLoss #UrbanFarming #ClimateChange https://lnkd.in/d-zhWYBi

Food waste continues to hurt the global economy and fuel climate change, nature loss, and pollution. UN Environment Programme's just-released 2024 #FoodWasteIndex Report has the latest global estimates on food waste at retail and consumer levels. ?? Read full report: https://lnkd.in/gdRD8JUW

??Hunger and climate change are interconnected. Climate change affects food production and security through extreme weather events, altering growing conditions, and disrupting supply chains. This leads to food scarcity, higher prices, and malnutrition. Addressing these challenges requires sustainable agriculture, reducing food waste, and promoting climate-resilient policies. #ClimateAction #climatechange
