Shocking Facts from Tristram Stuart’s Waste: Around half all food in the US is wasted, while 35 million people live in households that do not have reliable access to food. The US has more than 4 times the amount of food required by the nutritional needs of the population. Just half of the food currently being thrown away in the US could provide the world’s nearly one billion malnourished people with enough food. If trees were planted on all of the land currently being used to grow unnecessary surplus and wasted food, they could offset between 50 to 100 percent of the world’s man-made greenhouse gas emissions. The Amazon rainforest is currently being destroyed to make room for grazing and soy production to supply the world’s growing demand for meat. The land required to produce just the meat and dairy products wasted each year by U.S. and UK households, retailers and foodservices is seven times the amount of land deforested in Brazil. In South Korea, 98 percent of food waste is recycled—being composted or fed to livestock. The exact mirror image prevails in the US where only 2.6 percent of municipal food waste is recycled.
