29S: Street survey

At the International Day of Awareness of Food Loss and Waste WASTEWISE took the streets to know what are people’s views on this issue. What is society’s perception of food waste?

We asked three questions, and here are the answers.

How many kilograms of food waste does each person create per year at household level in Europe?

Where is the most food waste generated: in agriculture/aquaculture, industry, retail, food service, or households?

Which type of food generates the most waste: fruit and vegetables, bread, meat and fish, or milk and dairy products?
