20% of total food produced is lost or wasted 🚮

Food has never been so precious.

On the International Day Against Food Losses and Food Waste, we want to highlight that food waste means:

🏭 8-10% of global greenhouse gas emissions are generated by food that's wasted.
💶 36.2 million people cannot afford a quality meal every second day.
🌾 Nearly 30% of the world's agricultural land is occupied to produce food that is never consumed.

🍴 We have created the Farm to Fork strategy to combat it. At the heart of the , it aims to transition us to a sustainable food system that safeguards food security and ensures access to healthy diets sourced from a healthy planet.

One of its main action points: to prevent food loss and waste across the EU.
