The document discusses the large amount of food waste globally and its environmental and economic impacts. Some key details: - 1.3 billion tonnes of food is wasted globally each year, amounting to 1/3 of all food produced for human consumption. - In the US, over 60 million tons of food is wasted annually, enough to feed all 800 million starving people twice over. - Common wasted foods include bread, bagged salads, fresh vegetables, cooked leftovers, fresh fruits, milk and eggs. - Food waste has negative consequences such as biodiversity loss, waste of fertile land, increased carbon footprint and climate change impacts.
