American households throw food worth $165 billion in the trash each year. Now they can share it with their neighbors instead, thanks to a new app.
美国家庭每年会扔掉价值1650亿美元的食物。不过现在,归功于一个新的应用软件,他们可以与邻居分享了。
Olio was launched at the end of 2017 by Tessa Cook, a farmer's daughter from England, and Saasha Celestial-One, a daughter of hippies from Iowa.
这款名为Olio的APP,是由来自英国的一位农民的女儿泰莎·库克和来自美国爱荷华州一位嬉皮士的女儿Saasha Celestial-One在2017年底推出的。
It connects local communities, businesses and food stores.
它将本地的社区、企业、食品店连接了起来。
Users upload a photo and description of the food they no longer want or need, and a time and pickup location for others to come collect it.
用户上传一张他们不想要或者不再需要的食物的照片,并加上描述、领取时间、地点,方便人们去收集。
For many users, it's about getting to know their community, says Cook. For others it's an opportunity to waste as little as possible.
库克表示,对一些用户来说,这可以让他们更加了解社区。对另一些人来说,这给他们提供了一个尽可能少浪费食物的机会。
It's also a useful tool for cafes and bakeries, which can upload unsold food at the end of the day.
