Zusammenfassung englisch

Foods carry a significant ecological backpack. Their production requires land area, consumes water and generates greenhouse gas emissions. Sadly, private households in Germany alone incur some 6.7 million tonnes of food waste every year. About one third of all the food eaten away from home ends up being discarded. This guide gives practical, easy-to-follow advice on how to avoid food waste in the catering industry – whether at conferences and trade fairs, private parties or company anniversaries.
