Food waste is a phenomenon of food loss, which occurs throughout the food production and consumption chain.
Food waste is an issue of importance to global food security and good environmental governance, directly linked with environmental (e.g. energy, climate change, water, availability of resources), economic (e.g. resource efficiency, price volatility, increasing costs, consumption, waste management, commodity markets) and social (e.g. health, equality) impacts. In the EU, around 88 million tonnes of food waste are generated annually with associated costs estimated at 143 billion euros (FUSIONS, 2016).
Most of the food waste (4.1 million tonnes or 61 per cent) is avoidable and could have been eaten had it been better managed (WRAP, 2008; Knight and Davis, 2007).
We are over 7 billion people on this planet, of which 925 million are starving. The food currently wasted in Europe could feed 200 million people (FAO, 2013).
