One supermarket chain in Finland has come up with a way to reduce food waste. All 900 S-Market stores throughout the country knock 60 percent off already-reduced meat and fish at 9 o'clock each evening in an effort to move it off shelves before expiring （过期） at midnight.
"It's part of a two-year campaign to reduce food waste that company managers decided to call 'happy hour' in the hope of drawing in regular customers."
It makes customers get super-cheap food, sellers don't have to pay for disposal and it eases the burden on the planet.
Reducing food waste is not often enough seen as an effective solution to the climate crisis. Energy,for example, receives more focus than food, and yet food is something that individuals can and should solve on a personal level. A recent UN report stated that a shocking one-third of food produced for human consumption never gets eaten. This equals 1.3 billion tons of food worth ＄680 billion. From the report："Causes of food loss and waste differ greatly between developed and developing countries, as well as between regions. Reducing this loss and waste would reduce greenhouse gas emissions （排放物） and improve food security."
Supermarkets are well positioned to make a difference when it comes to food waste,but they have to be willing to accept some financial losses. Reducing prices on nearly-expired food is an excellent place to start, as is doing away with discounts, e.g. two for the price of one, which encourages over-buying.
Individuals have a responsibility,too,to eat more of what they buy. Take a moment to look at the contents of your refrigerator before shopping and work with what you have,in order of how soon items will expire. Don't be influenced by in-the-moment desires. Consider mentioning the S-Market new act to your local grocery store, in hopes that it, too, will consider carrying a happy hour of sorts out.
