Food waste is responsible for around 10% of global greenhouse gas emissions \ud83c\udf0d\ud83d\udd25<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That\u2019s right \u2013 when food is produced but never eaten, all the energy, water, land and transport that went into it still counts\u2026 and it releases greenhouse gases like methane and carbon dioxide along the way. So food waste isn\u2019t just about binning good food \u2013 it\u2019s also a big climate issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Put another way: if food waste were a country, it would be the third<\/strong> largest emitter of greenhouse gases in the world \u2013 after the USA and China \ud83d\udca8<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s a pretty gut-punch statistic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But it\u2019s also a reminder of why small actions matter. Every time someone shares spare food instead of binning it, they\u2019re not just helping a neighbour \u2013 they\u2019re helping cut waste, save resources, and reduce emissions too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Thank you for always choosing to share more and waste less \ud83d\ude4c<\/p>\n\n\n\n
