Interdiction de jeter les aliments : 41% de gaspillage alimentaire en moins

We waste 1 billion meals every single day. So, France made headlines by banning food waste completely. It became the first country to make it illegal for supermarkets to throw away edible food. Instead? 📦 They must donate it to charities. The result? 🍽️ 10 million meals donated ♻️ 41% drop in food waste 🌍 Fewer emissions, less landfill, more people fed Food waste isn’t just about trash... It’s about climate, equity, and responsibility. Because when food goes to waste: → The water, land, and energy used to grow it are wasted too → It rots in landfills, releasing methane (80x more powerful than CO₂) → 783 million people sleep hungry every day If everyone in the US saved just 1 meal from going to waste, it would be like taking 212,000 cars off the road for a year. That’s the scale of what’s possible when policy meets individual action. We need laws that hold corporations accountable. But we also need to come together to shift the culture around waste. 🍎 Plan your meals 🥕 Use leftovers 🥫 Donate your extra food 📅 Learn the difference between “best by,” “sell by,” and “use by” dates The truth is: we don’t have a food shortage problem. We have a distribution crisis driven by neglect, profit, and habit. No one should be hungry in a world that wastes this much.
