"Waste is an issue throughout the global food chain. Roughly one-third
of our food supply—about 1.3 billion tonnes—gets wasted every year. A
European or North American consumer may waste up to 115 kilograms per
year, 10 times more than their counterpart in sub-Saharan Africa or
south and Southeast Asia. But the problem is especially egregious in the
seafood category, where nearly a third of global stocks are overfished.
Wasting food—especially fish—appears to be an inefficiency our species
cannot afford to keep up."
Via Kam-Yung Soh, who wrote "A look at how food wastage occurs, from
catching and collecting, to ending up on our tables and bins."
