Food Waste Information Summary

Given my title, It is obvious that my research topic is focusing on food waste; specifically, on how food waste in America affects the country negatively, and what measures we should take to end mass food waste. I've hoped to find information that is thorough and helps me understand just how bad we Americans are wasting in America. It is Obvious that we as a country are more wasteful than others with our copious amounts of fast food places and such. I wanted to go beyond that uncovering the facts of waste not just in food, but the money wasted in the food industry as well. In addition, I want to uncover the truth of how the environment is affected by the constant abuse of the land through mass producement of food.
While there are a decent amount of articles with factual evidences regarding the costs of food waste, and how much we waste on a yearly basis, there are very close to none on how the waste affects the land and overall environment. This is a bit frustrating as my paper is heavily weighing on this aspect of the subject.
Is there anyone out there that has found decent information on this topic? Or anyone who might have good information on food waste all together?
I hope to find more good info on it all soon as I start to really solidify my findings into the actual writing.

  1. food wasting is honestly ridiculous and should be stopped immediately. There should be a rule that all restaurants or any company that handles food should donate all of the foods that will be thrown away. We could save a lot more lives and have a lot less waste in the world. However, the United States is one of the only country that throws away massive amounts of food.
