*[Enwl-eng] Food waste is choking our planet while millions go hungry

[ENWL]

 

This is a crisis, full stop. In Honor of International Day of Awareness of Food Loss and Waste, Join Us in Committing to Compost!      Sign Now        Over 30% of all food in the world is thrown away and ends up in landfills. In 2023, when nearly 800 million people are experiencing hunger and landfills are generating greenhouse gas emissions that are accelerating climate change at an alarming rate, there is absolutely no excuse for this. 17% of that food is lost in restaurants, retail, and other food service establishments... as well as in households. This means that while we need to continue to hold businesses and large corporations accountable for costly, harmful food loss, we can also do our part!   Composting is an easy, fun, enriching way to take part in the solution to this global problem. Not only does composting reduce the amount of materials you're sending to a landfill — it creates free, mineral-rich soil for your plants, yard, and local environment!   We need to address this food loss and waste crisis at every level, and that can start in our households. Sign now to pledge to do your part in reducing food waste this International Day of Awareness of Food Loss and Waste by composting! Thank you, Lauren Care2 Petitions Team P.S. Today is International Day of Awareness of Food Loss and Waste. Will you honor it by starting to compost in your household?      Sign Now
