4. We have enough food for the roughly 7 billion people alive
today, but nearly a billion are hungry or malnourished, mostly
due to poverty and unequal distribution. To feed those
currently hungry and the additional 2 billion – plus people who
will live on the planet by 2050 – our best projection is that
crop production will need to increase between 60 and 100
percent. “Business as usual” could lead to a doubling of
demand for agricultural production.
Sixty years ago, The Jestons imagine that in the
future, “ We could be eating meals in pill form”.
To Save Food
5. One-fourth of freshwater consumed in global food production
is effectively wasted since the food produced with this water is
never consumed(data taken from KUMMU et al, 2012). The
blue water footprint (i.e, consumed fresh surface water and
groundwater) of global crop production is 723 cubic kilometer
per year, meaning uneaten plant-based food represents 174
cubic Kilometer of wasted blue water each year(KUMME et al
2012). If the waste of products is considered , FAO(2013)
estimates 250 cubic kilometer of blue water was wasted due to
FLW in 2007. Placing this in control, more than three times as
surface water and groundwater is wasted each year due to FLW
than the average annual flow of the NILE river.

6. The last six decades have seen huge leaps in agricultural and food
processing innovation since 1960, the world’s population has
more than yet global doubled food production has more than
tripled, while using only 15 % more land. That may sound great,
but it's come at a price to both our health and the planet. More
than 300 million adults around the world have obesity, which has
major effects on human health. The cancer death rate has risen
17 % since 1990. And the way we grow, process , and transport
food contributes significantly to climate change that may soon
overwhelm the planet .

7. An increasing amount of food waste puts pressure on our resources.
We will need to build more disposal facilities, such as waste to energy
plants and landfills for incineration ash. This is not sustainable for land
scare in many countries. When food is wasted , so are all of the
resources use to grow and deliver the food to our tables, as well as to
dispose of it. This increase our carbon footprint contributing to global
warming and climate change. To conserve precious resources, there is
need to minimize food wastage and recycle or treat unavoidable food
waste. This starts with avoiding food wastage and excess food
production. When this is not possible, excess food should be re-
distributed lastly, food waste should be segregated for recycling and
treatment.
To Save Future
8. We are making a website, through that you will get a prior
notification about your upcoming meal in order to save food so
that you can choose whether you will eat or not if you will eat
then which items you will take.
