We waste one third of the food we produce globally. Yet around 10 percent of households in North America — disproportionately Indigenous and minority communities — don’t have enough to eat.
The roots of the waste are obvious: Food gets damaged through long transport, processing equipment malfunctions, over-ordering by corporations, overbuying by consumers and confusing public health policies lead to good food getting tossed out. Increasingly, extreme
weather also destroys crops. All of this has negative impacts on the climate and community food supplies.
