Over 930 million tonnes of food sold in 2019 was thrown away, according to new research by the UN Environment Programme (UNEP).This volume would fill enough 40-tonne trucks to stretch around the globe seven times.

We keep on saying this at TROM, for 10 years now, this trade-based system of "You get this, only if you give/do that" creates so much misery on this planet. Are we that stupid or incapable to create a system where at least the human basic needs are provided trade-free for everyone? Take that food that you throw away, and give it to people as trade-free. Actually, make food trade-free for everyone so that supermarkets and restaurants and all that, have no incentive to throw it away, fearing that if they do so, no one will buy their food.

It is a crazy and inhumane society that we've created! #tromlive

Now our Friendica (social.trom.tf) theme for TROM looks like tromsite.com:

We created several themes for our social network. Feel free to register and follow billions of humans :). Yah, that's right, with our social network you can follow pretty much anyone: facebook pages, twitter accounts, hashtags from any of those, youtube channels, mastodon or any federated network, or any website really. We will make an article about how awesome this social network is. #tromlive

We have money for 2 more months tromsite.com/donate/ to run all of our projects, including making TROM II :D. Scary times :D, but we will see. We reduced the server costs by around 20 Euros a month, plus we bought a new powerful one for our new trom.tf project. Both of them cheaper than what we paid before for our main server. We will also give up to most of our domains, so we pay less. Basically our server costs are around 45 Euros a month, which is not much considering all of what we host. But all of these projects require at least 1 human to work full time for them....and that human cannot charge from the sun :D.

Anyways, we have a TON of plans to create a TON of stuff. We will see how we'll do all of that. No worries, all of the projects will survive. But if anyone can help a little bit financially, please do so here tromsite.com/donate/ #tromlive
