What s the problem?
2.5 billion tonnes of household food is wasted every year across the world.
That’s 40% of all food produced for human consumption, and means the average global household wastes 1.5 tonnes of food each year. According to a study by the World Wildlife Fund and Tesco.
Without change, experts predict that household food waste may grow to as much as 70% of all food by the year 2050.
