This unbelievable video made me extremely sad today. What are we doing as a nation other than surpass others by hook or crook. We waste so much food rather than giving excess food to needy we prefer to waste it. Purpose of sharing this with community is to create awareness among masses to make a habbit of sharing their food with less fortunate not just to throw it away.
What better ways can be adopted to reduce the wastage of food? Especially at major events like weddings and political rallies. Even at places that offer all you can eat buffet are being misused by some foodies in Pakistan. Those people who are living abroad would know that developed societies are governed with some form of ethics and morality, which we severily lack.
I think wasting food should become a punishable crime. Whoever is seen wasting food should be imprisoned without food for at least 3 days.
And if organisations such as supermarkets, wedding halls etc are caught wasting food, a heavy fine should be levied and the head of the organization should be imprisoned without food for at least 3 days. The fine should be used to feed the poor.
You’ve made an excellent suggestion. I’ve seen people at weddings just put piles of food in plates without eating it all and just leaving it as it is.. they do the same for their kids without any manners. Some weddings halls do give away food to charity organizations but I think it should be implemented at a government level. Leftover food from restrurants and wedding event halls should be distributed among the needy and those violating the rules should be fined extra and their money should be spent on feeding the hungry at slums.

This is another video I saw which was sad but heartwarming at the same time. I wish we had more people like this..what do you think…
Yess..our planet waste so much food. Just look at our homes, restaurants etc. Amount of food we throw away for whatever reason. One of my cousin in San Francisco started the start up on controlling and maintaining food wastage. And also re-distributing good and quality food to less fortunate people around.
The conversation we normally have about food wastage is to begin from ourselves considerably and avoiding substantial waste by buying and eating only half our stomach can fill..and leave the other half..
