“reducing food waste is essential because there are millions of people in the word 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 plan meals and make a shopping list
– use addly-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 or vegetables for soups, smoothies, juices and desserts.
– take smaller portions at home or share larger dishes at restaurant
– freeze the food i have made but haven’t eaten for later or use the leftovers as an ingredient in another meal
– buy local procedure by supporting family farmers and small businesses in my local community use less water for example by turning off the water while brushing my teeth.”
