Reducing food wastage
- Reducing amount of food wastage

Key actions include improving storage and transportation, optimizing inventory management, promoting food recovery and redistribution, and raising consumer awareness about portion sizes and expiration dates. These strategies directly address inefficiencies, prevent unnecessary resource use, and ensure surplus food reaches those in need, thereby mitigating environmental impact and enhancing food security.
