In America, food waste is the largest contributor to municipal solid waste in landfills. According to the FDA, a staggering 30 – 40% of America’s food supply goes to waste. This waste equals over 133 billion pounds of food and over $161 billion worth of food. In fact, the harmful carbon dioxide emissions generated from food waste sitting in landfills are equivalent to 42 coal-fired power plants. Yet simultaneously, 1 in 8 Americans are food insecure.
