Some reasons why we should not waste food are as following:-

1. When food rots with other organics in landfill, it gives off methane gas, which is 25x more powerful than carbon pollution. Food waste can also cause infestation of rodents, which can cause disease and sickness to spread to everyone. It is also unjust that we toss out perfectly good, excess food, while people in the world are dying every second.
2. Secondly, wasting food also wastes your money. We throw out 8 billion dollars’ worth of edible food each year. If we didn’t throw out that food, we could use that 8 billion dollars for something much more useful. Many food shops throw out vegetables, fruits and even processed food that are perfect on the inside but are just not up to standard for selling because they have bruises, are oddly shaped, have dents in the tin, or are just out of date. Instead of throwing perfectly good food away to landfill, we should do something useful with it like giving it away to homeless people that don’t have money to buy food. We throw out 20% of what we buy. Each household throws out 345kg of food each year!
3. Lastly, wasting food wastes resources. When you toss out food, you’re also wasting everything that helped make it. For example, you are also wasting the fertilizer and water that helped make that plant grow, or kept that animal hydrated; or wasting valuable fuel that all the machines had to use for producing the food. You are also wasting plastic (the packaging) when you throw out wrapped food which can pollute the earth, if you don’t throw it away in the right bin. Did you know that Australia throws away so many plastic bags each year, that if you tied them together you could wrap them around the world 24 times? It is a great idea to get a compost bin or have a vegetable garden. That way, you can know what's in your food and it is also less expensive and doesn’t waste as many resources.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Composting food and diverting it from entering landfills helps prevent the creation of global greenhouse gas emissions and protects the environment. Wasted food is not only detrimental to the environment but also costs consumers, businesses and taxpayers substantial amounts of money.
