    The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) estimates that Americans waste 30 percent of all edible food produced, bought, and sold in this country, although it acknowledges that this figure is probably low.Part of the problem is the heterogeneous nature of food waste -there is no single culprit, just many diffuse sources that add up to a slow and steady bleed on the economy and the environment. This site tells us what we already know, just some random helpful information in there that is fun and good to know.
  • Blake Damron-Gurule on 06 Feb 12
     
    Everyone is responsible for food being wasted the biggest contributors being cafeteria's, restaurants, and grocery stores. The first steps to wage war on food waste are to buy conservatively and make just enough instead of to much. Also to embrace the three R's reduce, reuse, and recycle.

    American Wasteland, a book written by Jonathan Bloom talks about the statistics of the food waste in America. This artice in particular gives us the option to look into even more statistics of how severe the food waste in America has become today. These numbers keep gradually increasing sending our whole stability on Earth out of line. The more food we waste the more food we expect to grow. However the harsh conditions we expect Earth to withstand are apalling; Not only the soil but the atmophere are at risk of causing serious damages to the future of life as we know it

    This article gives a clear picture of just how much food we waste a day. It talks about how Americans fill a football stadium each day with the amount of food we waste and how that negatively effects the environment. It also touches on how we are a society that went from having many farmers and a greater appreciation for the work that went into growing the food to not knowing or caring where it came from and how much we waste.

    There are misconceptions about csots and benefits. Research that had been done shoes that a lot of companies, large and small, have been reluctant to pursue environmental sustainability. One myth is that there is no profit from sustainability initiatives. And companies that have taken the initiative are profiting from it.

    Food waste is a big problem for Americans today. We can solve this problem by doing a few things watching and limiting what we buy and eat, saving what we do not finish, and ignoring sale by dates because they are not expiration dates. Using methods like these we can successfully reduce food waste from one pound a day per person.
