Love food hate waste campaign claims that it has already prevented 1,37000 tonnes of waste goin to waste bin and have helped close on two million households reduce their food waste, amounting to savings of almost £300 million.
A persons willingness to change along with action and appropriate policies from the local authorities is essential to bring a social change. The campaign is funded and supported by the governmentand almost every county council has given its support to the campaign. Retailers and food manufacturers also support to reduce food waste and they are the official sponsors of the campaign.
Unlike Other campaigns, consumer is also economically benefited and hence more people are willing take part in the campaign. It also helps in reducing the so called Value Action Gap.
The campaign is both focused at individual and social aspects and hence is more effective. a large body of studies asserts that personal factors are necessary and essential to foster behavioral changes, even though the correspondence between attitudinal variables and behavior is often moderate {reference*(2}
The website lovefoodhatewaste.com gives you a lot of information and makes it easily accessible at any point of time. A lot of people gives their experience and valuable opinion which encourage other people to minimize waste.
Some of the weaknesses of the campaign are:
The campaign is too focused on using left overs and freezing, whereas shopping storage and portion control are effective strategies.
The campaign deals with utilitarian concept and socio-psychological theories where as doesn't consider Infrastructure of provision approach.
The campaign doesn't focus on the production part of food. food that goes to waste during Production and distribution accounts for 5 percentage of the GHG emissions.
Globally 15-50% of food produced is wasted post harvest and no action is taken prevent those waste.
The campaign is more concentrated on the food after consumption and doesn't look in to the broader aspects of food. Food has different utility and meanings when it comes to Entertainment, pleasure satisfaction, love status, comfort, time pass, bribery, religious significance, social glue, power, habbit, need, guilt, culture and so on. The amount of waste generated differs for each case and no effort has been taken to realy understand this complex system.

Love Food Hate waste Campaign is still in its early stage and has long way to go. The measurement of success of the campaign can be found by looking the amount of waste reduced as a result of this campaign. In the very first year, the campaign is successful in reducing 1,37000 tones of household waste. The initial statistics of the campaign sounds too intresting and shows how successful it has been. The campaign is successful in attaining attention of the large public. Even though the results are impressive, when compared to the true scale of the problem, it is just a mere drop in the ocean. To address the big issue like climate change we need to do a lot more to reduce the amount of waste produced.
Some of the limitations are
Lack of interest of certain individuals can be setback to the campaign. Some people consider that the protection of environment is government's job and are not concerned about the same. Some people think that their contribution is just marginal and hence don't do anything.
Reduction of waste is moreover a private thing and since its not public there is no social pressure to do it.
The lack of strong policies is certainly a limitation to the campaign
Measuring and monitoring is a tough task to perform. The reliability on survey is questioned.
