Developed countries throw away tens of tons of food per second as waste.
A new analysis by the Boston Consulting Group (BCG) finds that global food waste will increase by more than 30% by 2030 if no action is taken to reduce it. The numbers themselves are even more alarming. Scientists estimate that in 10 years, people will be throwing away about 66 tons of food per second as waste. Now this amount is approximately half as much, but it is also frightening.
The scale of the problem is great and serious. While third world countries are openly starving, developed countries throw away food just because they buy more than they could eat. If you still have not thought about this problem, then it's time to do it. Start with your fridge, revise and revise your purchases. In fact, a person does not need so much for a fulfilling life. But some kind of greed, and maybe other reasons, force people to recruit (including buy) much more products than necessary. Think only of vacationers at resorts. Who eat according to the principle "Buffet. All inclusive". With greed, they rake up such an amount that they simply cannot eat. Having bitten different dishes, in the end they just throw them away.
World organizations warn that food will become less and less every year and it is necessary to take good care of food, not buying excess. So that you don't have to throw them away.
