Why is tackling food waste so important? 🤔 Well, we waste a staggering one-third of all food produced globally. This not only wastes the food itself but also the precious resources like land, water, labor, and money that go into producing it. 💧 Sending food to landfills leads to methane emissions, a potent greenhouse gas that significantly contributes to climate change. 🌍
In New Zealand alone, cafes, restaurants, and supermarkets generate about 50,000 tonnes of food waste each year, with over 60% being perfectly edible! Foodprint offers a user-friendly solution for both consumers and eateries to reduce their environmental impact. 🌱
