DESCRIPTION:
The International Day of Awareness of Food Loss and Waste calls for the prioritization of efforts by both public and private sectors to reduce food loss and waste. This goal aligns with the more efficient use of natural resources, climate change mitigation, and enhanced food security and nutrition.
Approximately 14% of global food is lost after harvest but before retail, and about 17% is wasted at the retail and consumption levels. This waste contributes 8-10% of total global greenhouse gases, contributing to climate instability and extreme weather events which negatively affect crop yields, reduce nutritional quality, cause supply chain disruptions, and threaten food security and nutrition.
The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, particularly SDG 12, target 12.3, calls for halving global food waste per capita at retail and consumer levels and reducing food losses along production and supply chains. With an estimated 3.1 billion people without access to a healthy diet, and about 828 million people facing hunger, the need to reduce food loss and waste is urgent.
As there are only eight years left to achieve the target, the necessity of scaling up action to reduce food loss and waste is paramount. Reducing food loss and waste not only offers immediate climate benefits, but it also enhances the overall sustainability of our food systems. This transformation is crucial for ensuring better planetary and nutritional outcomes for current and future generations.
