This is equivalent to 1.3 billion tonnes of food worldwide every year.
If we reduced this amount by just 1/4, there would be enough food to feed everybody
on the planet.
In developing countries there are high levels of unintentional wastage,
often due to poor equipment, transportation and infastructure.
In wealthy countries, high levels of food waste are caused by food being discarded by
consumers who have bought too much or by retailers because the produce doesn’t meet
aesthetic requirements.
15 million tonnes of food & drink are thrown away each year, costing the average household
approximately £60 per month. If we stop wasting food that could have been eaten, the benefit
to the planet would be the equivalent of taking 1 in 4 cars off the road.
At Rubies in the Rubble, we are on a mission to encourage people to waste less,
treasure their resources and live more sustainably. We want to save the planet one jar at a time
by providing a delicious & practical solution to food waste.
