is a quote from Pope Francis on the June 5th, which puts a question to the entire humanity: Are we protecting or damaging our big, round world? Are we here to create a better and a solid world or just simply ruining it? Poor people go to war to be able to have their stomach full, while people with a good economy just throws food around like is a toy. His words came on the day the United Nations took the initiative to launch an anti-food waste campaign. His well-known speech warned, that a “culture of waste” and consumerism have dulled the moral sense of humanity. UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization says that there is approximately 1.3 billion tons of food. Some of them comes from food production failure, some of them ends up in the garbage can.
Millions of Britons struggle to have food in their house and on the table. Do social supermarkets help this kind of problem with their discount? A study from the Blackburn Darwen shows, that 1/3 of all the food we buy, we throw it away. The average family throws away £400 worth of food a year. This indicates, how big the problem is. There is around 7,6 billion on this earth, and if people throws £400 worth of food a year, that is a huge problem to the environment in our globe. Gary Stott is the stocky Lancastrian, who is responsible for this offering: “Our customers do like a bit Waitrose.” There is different food like chicken liver and bacon paté from Sainsbury’s for around 45p because it has been discounted from £1.30. That is a £0,85 discount - that is around 39.5% discount, which indicates, that people have been aware of this huge problem. But the question remains unanswered… does it help?
