11.Why don't you start with what you can do ~ To eliminate food loss
Last update date November 6, 2020
The so-called "food loss" that can still be eaten but discarded accounts for about 17 percent of the burnable garbage from households in Yokohama, accounting for 94,000 tons per year and about 25 kilograms per citizen. The three major causes of food loss are leftovers, untouched foods, and excess removal. Keep the refrigerator tidy on a regular basis to prevent forgetting to use it, make shopping memos and buy what you need, make the amount you can eat, and use a "eating cooperating shop" for eating out. Let's reduce "wastefulness".
