We, as a society, really need to stop being so laissez-faire when it comes to unnecessary waste. Laws might be required for actual change to happen. Like French grocery stores having to donate excess food rather than throwing it away.
- clarry 7y agoLast week I took a pause during my grocery shopping to grab and eat a banana inside the store. They had a bin you can eat from; that's where they put the produce that's looking old or battered and would soon have to be discarded anyway. I was super hungry, and grateful for that banana. A man with two kids also grabbed some for the young ones. It's a small thing and probably doesn't achieve much in the end but I really like the idea. Packaged food is sold at a discount near its expiry date.
