In the UK, the government-funded recycling programme WRAP has signed up hotels and restaurants for a campaign to reduce food waste, including the Accor Group, Jury’s Inn, Red Carnation and Travelodge hotel groups. Their aim is to reduce waste by 5% by 2017, which would save estimated 720 million tons a year.
People in rich regions, such as in Europe and North America, consume roughly 900 kg of food every year, and per capita waste is around 115 kg a year, compared to sub-Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia, where they only throw away up to 11 kg a year, according to the FAO.
