The 5th of June is Word Environment Day.
Today is World Environment Day, set aside by the United Nations Environment Programme with a special focus on global food waste. The UN Food and Agriculture Programme estimates that globally, one third of all food is wasted every year. In developing countries, more than 40% of food waste happens on farms, during storage, and in processing. But in first world countries, about the same amount of food waste occurs in homes and in stores due to greed, over purchase, dislike of food which is close to expiry date, blemished or bruised. We need to make wise choices about what we buy and use to prevent food wastage.
The UN estimates that 70% of the world’s freshwater resources go in to global food production, which also accounts for 80% of the world’s deforestation.

*school we could make sure the fruit of cildren is eatin
ReplyDelete*home make sure to eat things in cans even if its expired it could still be good
1. Use all the food we haven't eaten and give it to poor people in Africa who don't have any food.
ReplyDelete2. Make sure everyone eats everything in their lunch.
1. Eat all the food in your lunchbox so that your mum and dad don't have to throw it away or eat it after school
ReplyDelete2. If your brother or sister didn't have enough food and you are full you could give some of your lunch to them
*we could check the worm bins for uneatin food
ReplyDelete*at home we could it food that is over expired date if its still ok.
we could freeze food for example fruit and stuff or get fruit seeds so.we do not have to go to the supermarket and use money instead we could get fruit seeds because its less money
ReplyDeleteFOOD WASTE
ReplyDelete*Shops To prevent food waste at home we need to make shore what we buy we will eat.
*School If you make your childs lunch you need to make shore your child will eat it.
*Home When you serve your family's food make shore that the amount you are serveing them thay are going to eat
*We could only take what we need
ReplyDelete*keep some things in the frige
*Share eg if you have a big manderin tree you could bring some into school to share
* If you have so much food you could give some to charity
If we were at the super market we could think before we get our fruiit or vegtables wecould think if we were going to eat all we get because if we bought to much we would probeble not eat what we get and we might wast some of the food we bought another example is if we had an apple in our fruit basket and it had a little rotten spot we could cut the rotten spot of and eat the restif we didchuck it away we should put it in the worm bin
ReplyDeleteIf we are at school we could give it to the chickens or make it into compost. At home and school we use that food for that night and make somthing different the next night. If we were at the super market we could just take what we need. If you dont want the food you could share it wih our freinds.And we could check if there was uneatin food in the worm bin. If your mum makes your lunch she has to make shore that the child will eat it,and if you had so much food you could give it to charity.
ReplyDeleteWhat great ideas Lucy. We can do all of those things at home.
DeleteAt home when your mum is packing your lunch for you for school and you see something you dont like and at school you chuck it away then at home in sted you could rap it up and put it into the fridge or just put it in the compost. If there was still good food in the fridge insted of chucking it out you could give it to an other friend or put it in the worm bin
ReplyDelete*Serve how much you need to eat before getting more.
ReplyDelete*If you are at the supermarket and you are buying eggs try not to drop them.
*If one of your fruits or vegetables go bad put it in the fridge and then after a while you could turn it into something yummy but healthy.
*Dont only eat sugar things because then some of your healthy food might turn bad.
*Dont throw it away on the best before date because sometimes the food can still be good past the best before date.
*If you were buying a very breakable fruit or vege don't drop it.
if we went to the super market and we bought 29 bags full of grosres we would waste one whole bag of groesres so the whole wide world should

ReplyDeletenight.
when we are at the supermarket we could think about what we buy so that we arn't wasting food. Insted of trowing our food away we could put it in the worm bin or share some food with freinds at home. you could take it to garden to table to do some cooking with it. maby if you aksed mrs marsters you could feed it to the chikens.
