Recycling - Gone To The Pigs

We're throwing out less food€“ but still too much - The Independent

"Despite the reduction, the food we waste in homes, which accounts for about half the UK's food waste, is still worth £12bn a year as a result of food-price inflation and the food that is being wasted throughout the supply chain is significant, at a time when food security is a major global issue,"
The greenhouse gas emissions associated with the manufacture, distribution, storage, use and disposal of wasted food was 17 million tonnes, down from 20 million three years earlier.

Feed it to pigs. Some of us still remember the scandal of the swill feeding ban. With proper precautions this turns all those tasty scraps back into yummy bacon. A recycling project nearly all of us can support I think.
