Wasted Food

by Michael :0) on February 29, 2012

  Every year, it is estimated that 1.3 billion tons of food is wasted in the world! Do you realize what the weight of 1.3 billion tons really is? Let me try to put it into perspective for you. 1.3 billion tons is just over 226 times heavier than the Great Pyramid! Yes, 226 Pyramids equal to the Great Pyramid could be made each year from the amount of food we throw away!

good post and it's good reminder to every body because there are people who don't care about the food that they are throwing specially if they did not experience the time that they have nothing to eat . They don't feel how difficult to fine food for their families.

Thanks for the comments guys, I'm glad you liked the post.
mesy ann, you are right and I agree with you 100% Some people who have never experienced hunger have no care one way or the other about the amount of food they consume or waste. They only know that they can get more when they "want" more. At the same time, there are people who have a hard time getting food when they "need" food.

Hello C.p. Singh, Yes, if we did become more organized with our food, then I think there would be less hungry people in the world. If we can throw that much food into the garbage, then surely we can find a way to be a little more conservative and help feed families and children who are starving. I just cannot imagine seeing so many people going hungry when we are throwing so much food away.
