Denmark Opens A Store For Food That Was Supposed To Be Thrown Away
A supermarket in Denmark is fighting global famine in the best way possible. A shop called ‘WeFood’ sells products that are past their expiration date or have damaged packaging and can thus cut the cost for consumers by 30 to 50 percent. WeFood is not only useful for low-income shoppers but also for anyone worried about the huge food waste problem we currently face. What is even more amazing is that the store is completely volunteer run and all of the profits go to charity initiatives in developing countries. Global famine is a huge problem, one-third of the food produced in the world is thrown away which is approximately 1,3 billion tonnes every year. With 795 million undernourished people globally, this is a luxury our society shouldn’t be encouraging.
also, some supermarkets have bins for used plastic bags, so you may re-use them.
