    The average person throws away about 20 pounds of food each month, that adds up between $28-$43. The United Nations has predicted that the U.S. will need about 70 percent more food to feed the projected population, in 2050, with how much we waste today. We're not only wasting food,we're also wasting water, energy, chemicals, packaging, and gas transporting discarded food. All of this is taken to produce and distribute the food and where does it end up? In the landfills.
