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
