The energy required to produce, ship, and store wasted food is as much as the emissions from 37 million cars. This problem affects everyone in the world. It needs to change because rising global temperatures have devastating consequences for every living thing. ]]> 2020-08-04 03:17:30 UTC https://padlet.com/skyejollie/vtjb4znq4rt93mhf/wish/668681138 Wasted School Lunches skyejollie https://padlet.com/skyejollie/vtjb4znq4rt93mhf/wish/668686864 Schools are responsible for wasting a ton of food. Kids are forced to take more food than they want and end up throwing it away. Schools are one of the biggest contributors to food waste. Buying food that is going to be thrown away costs the school districts a lot of money. Many schools force kids to take food because of government guidelines. Those rules need to change so schools can waste less food. ]]> 2020-08-04 03:25:20 UTC https://padlet.com/skyejollie/vtjb4znq4rt93mhf/wish/668686864 People are the biggest food wasters skyejollie https://padlet.com/skyejollie/vtjb4znq4rt93mhf/wish/669796547 One big problem is how much food people waste at home. People keep buying bigger fridges and don't eat the food that is inside them. Families waste about $1500 a year on food that they throw away. This is a problem for families, especially families that don't have a lot to eat or a lot of money to spend on food. It needs to change because many families don't have enough food to eat. ]]> 2020-08-05 04:03:54 UTC https://padlet.com/skyejollie/vtjb4znq4rt93mhf/wish/669796547
