@wrapmaster is calling on chefs and operators to act now on food waste, and embed cost-saving habits before legislation in 2030. 📈 As the government remains committed to eliminating food waste from landfill, new compliances are already being introduced through the Environment Act 2021. 🌍 In 2023/24, operators will need to separate their food wastage from general waste, as well as other recyclable waste, and send it for recycling. By 2030, foodservice sites will no longer be permitted to send food waste to landfill or incineration.

🚀 Did you know that one-third of all food produced globally is wasted? This staggering statistic highlights the urgent need for effective food waste recycling policies. 🌍 I recently watched a compelling video about South Korea's innovative approach to reducing food waste, and it's truly inspiring. South Korea has implemented comprehensive government policies and advanced technologies that have drastically cut down on waste. Imagine if we could replicate this success worldwide! Key takeaways from South Korea's model: ✅ Mandatory recycling of food waste ✅ Food waste process in animal feed and compost ✅ Innovative waste-to-energy initiatives ✅ Community engagement and education Implementing such measures not only helps the environment but also boosts the economy by creating green jobs and generating energy. It's time for governments and communities worldwide to take a page from South Korea's playbook. Let's work together to advocate for stronger food waste policies and make a positive impact on our planet. 🌿💪 🚀 Join the Fight Against Food Waste! 🚀 #FoodWaste #Sustainability #GreenInitiatives #EcoFriendly #GovernmentPolicy #ClimateAction #InspirationFromSouthKorea https://lnkd.in/gsvfkTa2

Today, Environment Ministries from across the EU are coming together to take on Europe’s food and textile waste challenge. After last week's vote in the European Parliament, it is now up to our governments to enhance the EU waste law and ensure it matches the scale of our waste crisis. 🤔 What do we need? 🥔 Reduction targets to halve food waste from farm to fork by 2030, in line with international commitments  🥔 Food waste reduction targets that refer to all food including edible and non-edible parts - all food waste needs to be reduced, and in the "best possible way" according to the EU Waste Hierarchy  👕 Ambitious textile waste management and reduction targets  👕 Extended Producer Responsibility schemes to reduce the number of products put on the market and global accountability for textile exports to ensure financial support reaches the countries bearing the brunt of Europe’s overconsumption Read on for our assessment of the Parliament’s position and how Member States can strengthen it. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/dBgGhnGQ #foodwaste #textilewaste #circulareconomy Leonore Gewessler Khattabi Zakia Julian Popov Petr Hladík Magnus Heunicke Kai Mykkänen Christophe Béchu Eamon Ryan Māris Sprindžuks Serge Wilmes Dr. Miriam Dalli Vivianne Heijnen Paulina Hennig-Kloska Duarte Cordeiro Mircea Fechet Mr Bojan Kumer Romina Pourmokhtari Alain Maron Patrick Child Krzysztof (Chris) Bolesta Anikó Raisz

As much as I tire of compliance, I always circle back to the fact that legal requirements improve environmental sustainability. The ACT is introducing legislation to divert commercial food scraps from going to landfill. The legislation will require businesses to develop food waste reduction plans, and to recycle whatever is left over. We support this as long as business are supported through the transition including infrastructure to enable ease of separating at the source and reducing contamination. #circulareconomy #sustainability

The current research aligns with the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Target 12.3, which aims to reduce global food waste generated per capita by up to 50% by 2030. While the study adopts a comprehensive and multidisciplinary approach to sustainability, recycling expired dairy products using eco-friendly solvents is a practical solution for fostering an integrated sustainable ecosystem.#SDG12 #greenprocessing #protein #foodwaste #foodsecurity Food Systems Institute at the University of Nottingham Future Food of the University of Nottingham Malaysia
