- Food waste, as you know, has been one of the difficulties that people can't seem to prevent on a daily basis.
-
- In the Philippines 1.717 metric tons of food is wasted each day.
- An estimated 1.4 billion tons of food is wasted each day around the world.
- Food waste can also cause infestation of rodents, which can cause disease and sickness that can spread to everyone.
- Wasting food is bad and destructive for the Earth's environment. When food rots it gives off methane gas which is 25x more powerful than carbon pollution
- Fortunately there are still ways to avoid food wastage.
- First, we should eat a balanced diet which involves not eating too much because consuming large amounts can harm our body.
- Freezing leftover food can help preserve them for later use and prevent them from spoiling. Many fresh fruits and vegetables keep well when frozen, extending their shelf life and reducing food waste.
- Composting food waste. Through composting, the amount of food waste sent to the landfill is reduced, the organic matter is reused rather than dumped.
