Prof. Ofira Ayalon is talking about the Western world throwing food in huge quantities.
The world is in a global food crisis because of the coronavirus, damage to the food supply chains as well as the impact of the war in Ukraine. On top of these- the climate crisis. In order to produce food, we need energy, water, pesticides, fertilizers and more.
So food wastage has wider effects. In order to minimize this problem we need personal responsibility (such as planning food purchases) and the responsibility of the state.
