This initiative, announced at the second edition of the General States against food waste in Rome, rallies support for the \u201c123 Pledge\u201d by the United Nations\/FAO, aiming to halve food waste by 2030. Top figures from Italy\u2019s agri-food sector convened to endorse the pledge, emphasizing the need for concrete political measures to restore value to food and support both producers and consumers in the face of global crisis.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, new data from the Waste Watcher International Observatory reveals alarming trends in food waste across Italy. Despite efforts to curb waste, there\u2019s an 8% uptick compared to last year. Each person tosses out 30 kg of food annually, costing families \u20ac290 and totaling over \u20ac7.5 billion for the nation. This waste disproportionally affects urban areas, the southern regions, and low-income households, highlighting the social and economic ramifications.<\/p>\n<p>To tackle this issue comprehensively, Italy is rolling out innovative solutions. The introduction of the Sprecometer app, with its #RistoMensa feature, empowers consumers and businesses to track and reduce food waste, especially in restaurants and school cafeterias. Additionally, educational initiatives in schools aim to instill values of sustainability and responsible consumption in future generations. As Italy grapples with the complex interplay of food waste, social inequity, and environmental sustainability, the call to action is clear: it\u2019s time to make a difference, one pledge at a time.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.intrieste.com\/2024\/02\/05\/italy-ramps-up-fight-against-food-waste-unveils-italy-4-pledge-amid-alarming-trends\/\">InTrieste<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/2-472\/\">Italy Ramps Up Fight Against Food Waste: Unveils \u2018Italy 4 Pledge\u2019 Amid Alarming Trends<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[575,1589,1552],"class_list":["post-125132","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-food-waste","tag-italy"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/125132","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=125132"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/125132\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=125132"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=125132"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=125132"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
