Food Rescue Hero analisi dell'app per 20 febbraio

Up to 40% of food goes to waste, while 1 in 7 individuals is experiencing food insecurity. Join a nationwide movement to combat food waste and hunger with the Food Rescue Hero app™. Designed for volunteers and food recovery organizations, this innovative platform empowers communities to redirect surplus food to those in need, making a tangible impact on food insecurity and environmental sustainability. Why It Matters • Reduce Food Waste: Up to 40% of food produced goes to waste–and with it, all the resources that went into growing, transporting, and packaging this food. • Alleviate Hunger: 1 in 7 individuals is experiencing food insecurity, and less than a third of the wholesome food that goes to waste would be enough to close this hunger gap. • Protect the Environment: Food waste is the #1 methane emitter in landfills, and contributes more greenhouse gas emissions in a year than global air travel. Reducing food waste is imperative in reaching the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals by 2030.
