When food is lost or wasted, the land, labour, water, energy & all of the resources that went into producing it are being wasted too.
Reducing #FoodLoss & #FoodWaste means protecting the health of our one & only planet.
Let's all act: for people & 🌍!

Global temperatures exceeding 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels are not just statistics; they are a #climatecrisis!
We must #ActNow to reduce greenhouse gas emissions as an urgent global priority to meet the 1.5°C target.
