On 29 September, the world unites to mark the International Day of Awareness of Food Loss and Waste, a moment to reflect on the hidden costs of discarded food and the opportunities to create a more sustainable future.
Food loss and waste not only undermine food security and nutrition but also deplete our precious soil, water, energy, and biodiversity. Every meal that goes to waste represents resources lost and contributes to greenhouse gas emissions, intensifying the challenges of climate change.
At Waste4Soil, we see these challenges as a call to action. By transforming organic waste into valuable resources, we strengthen soil health, foster sustainable agriculture, and help build resilient food systems that nourish both people and the planet.
Tackling food loss and waste requires collaboration across borders, sectors, and communities. Through innovation, knowledge sharing, and sustainable practices, we can create food systems that are efficient, equitable, and environmentally responsible.
