Yes, and the government should losen regulations on soup kitchens and other food services to allow more food to be donated.
@9RRTSC911mos11MO
Yes, all the food waste from school, Healthcare industry, Corrections facilities, should go to the non-corporate Farms to produce fertilizer and feed the pigs.
@9S9H4SS11mos11MO
No, if the food is natural and not laced with chemicals and preservatives, then food waste is not a problem.
@9MJXYWB1yr1Y
No, however there should be regulations on companies regarding food waste.
@ka'a'awa-54 2 days2D
YES... only with strict attention to moral clarity, economic efficiency, strategic targeting, cultural sensitivity, decentralized innovation, and measurable outcomes. The goal must be not only less waste, but more wisdom.

Reduce subsidises that create an excess of food waste while also reducing food insecurity among low income people.
@B5S69QZ4wks4W
No, deregulate the industry, a law meant to encourage donation of the food combined with lawsuits unironically led to the current situation where employers and employees have to throw out food. Especially restaurants.
@B2SZWC95mos5MO
Food processing and reduction needs to be overhauled with computerized data management and systems down to one's need for nutrition. We live in an era of absolute abundance there should not be any food waste.
