Food waste
Food waste is a serious problem both for the environment and the economy. The average UK family
throws away about 24 meals a month. That’s about 4.2 million tonnes of food and drink a year. Almost half
of this food isn’t even opened. Instead, it goes straight from fridges or cupboards into the bin. A recent
study showed that about 60% of this waste could actually have been eaten, which means the average
family spends abound £470 a year on wasted food. That’s a shocking statistic! Interestingly, the top three
foods that people throw away in British homes are bread, potatoes and milk. So, what can we do about
this? Ordinary families can plan their meals better. Writing a list of meals for the week can help. That way
people only buy what they need and don’t throw food away.
However, it isn’t only families that waste food. Shops and different food places are responsible, too. As a
result, the UK government has started a campaign. They have asked producers, supermarkets and
restaurants to work together to reduce and even stop food waste. In response, some supermarkets and
restaurants now give food they don’t sell to local charities. They are also thinking more carefully about the
amount of food they keep in their shops and kitchens because ordering too much results in waste. All of
this is excellent news.
However, there is a further problem with food that is wasted. Burying waste food in the ground increases
the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere and therefore increases the problem of global
warming. This is why some local councils are stopping burying food like this. Instead, they are finding ways
to use food waste from homes and businesses to produce energy. If we act now, we can protect the planet
and also save billions of pounds.
