“Reducing food waste is essential because there are milions of people in the world who go hungry every day. I try to reduce food waste in a number of ways.

I try to:

-Buy only what i need and plans meals male a shopping list

-use oddly-shaped or bruised fruits and vegetables instead of throwing them away just because they do not look perfect as they often taste the same. I can use mature fruit and vegetables for soups, smoothies, juices and dessert.

-take smaller portions at home or share large dishes at restaurant

-freeze the food i have made but haven’t eaten for later or use the leftovers as an ingredients in the another meal

-buy local produce by supporting family farmers and small businesses in my locali community.

-use less water for example by turning off the water while brushing my teeth
