There's something better than an 'excuse' for your mistake, which is 'now you know how to stop it from happening again'. ~ Mohith Agadi
Food Waste quotes by Mohith Agadi
In the United States, under 3 percent of municipal food waste - so that's the food scraps that goes into people's garbage cans - actually gets recycled. If you go to a place like South Korea, the exact reverse is the case. It's about 3 percent that doesn't get recycled. ~ Tristram Stuart
Food Waste quotes by Tristram Stuart
In China, I helped introduce UNEP's campaign to reduce food waste on World Environment Day. The government took notice of food waste issues and now, when you over-order in a restaurant, you are encouraged to downsize. This is where people can really impact policy and vice versa! ~ Li Bingbing
Food Waste quotes by Li Bingbing
Throwing away food is like stealing from the table of those who are poor and hungry. ~ Pope Francis
Food Waste quotes by Pope Francis
Trayless cafeterias. Cafeteria managers have been taking a keen interest in reducing food waste. Seeing how easy it is to load up a tray with extra food that often goes uneaten and extra napkins that go unused, curious managers and students at Alfred University in New York tested a trayless policy over two days. When trays weren't offered, food and beverage waste dropped between 30 and 50 percent! ~ Richard H. Thaler
Food Waste quotes by Richard H. Thaler
The job of uncovering the global food waste scandal started for me when I was 15 years old. I bought some pigs. I was living in Sussex. And I started to feed them in the most traditional and environmentally friendly way. I went to my school kitchen, and I said, 'Give me the scraps that my school friends have turned their noses up at.' ~ Tristram Stuart
Food Waste quotes by Tristram Stuart
A food waste reduction hierarchy-feeding people first, then animals, then recycling, then composting-serves to show how productive use can be made of much of the excess food that is currently contributing to leachate and methane formation in landfills. ~ Carol Browner
Food Waste quotes by Carol Browner
According to Project Drawdown, four of the most effective strategies for mitigating global warming are reducing food waste, educating girls, providing family planning and reproductive healthcare, and collectively shifting to a plant-rich diet. The benefits of these advancements extend far beyond the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, and their primary cost is our collective effort. ~ Jonathan Safran Foer
Food Waste quotes by Jonathan Safran Foer
According to the 'food waste pyramid,' ensuring that food is eaten by people is the top priority. Failing that, the next best thing is to feed it to farm animals. ~ Tristram Stuart
Food Waste quotes by Tristram Stuart
Food redistribution is one of the best win-win solutions for food waste avoidance. Food companies can often save money by donating food rather than paying the £80 or so per tonne in landfill tax and disposal costs. ~ Tristram Stuart
Food Waste quotes by Tristram Stuart
Why do we send valuable items like aluminium and food waste to landfill when we can turn them into new cans and renewable energy? Why use more resources than we need to in manufacturing? We must now work together to build a zero waste nation - where we reduce the resources we use, reuse and recycle all that we can and only landfill things that have absolutely no other use ~ Hilary Benn
Food Waste quotes by Hilary Benn
Supermarkets didn't even want to talk to me about how much food they were wasting. I'd been round the back. I'd seen bins full of food being locked and then trucked off to landfill sites, and I thought, surely there is something more sensible to do with food than waste it. ~ Tristram Stuart
Food Waste quotes by Tristram Stuart
Cutting food waste is a delicious way of saving money, helping to feed the world and protect the planet. ~ Tristram Stuart
Food Waste quotes by Tristram Stuart
Wasting food is like stealing from the poor. ~ Pope Francis
Food Waste quotes by Pope Francis
The garden is doing so well, we have so many greens and radishes that everyone is enjoying. Also, we are using one square as a compost bin, the Green Team is collecting food waste at lunch. Things are looking great, a huge thank you again. ~ Mike Moreno
Food Waste quotes by Mike Moreno
In a world of forty thousand choices, the old advice of 'everything in moderation' no longer cuts it. The signs are that many people have understandably had enough of this free-for-all of supersizing and hidden sugars, of type 2 diabetes and food waste. In the past five years, millions of eaters have rejected huge swaths of mainstream food and created their own rules to eat by. Such reactions offer a sliver of hope that eating -- for some populations anyway -- is finally moving in a healthier direction, with a new thoughtfulness about food and a return to vegetables. On the other hand, some of the new diet rules we have invented for ourselves are as extreme and unbalanced as the food system they seek to replace. ~ Bee Wilson
Food Waste quotes by Bee Wilson
In Japan, Taiwan and South Korea, the government in a matter of years has put a lot of energy behind recycling food waste as livestock feed. It's environmentally friendly, it provides cheap livestock feed for the farmers in those parts of the world, and it avoids sending the food waste to landfill. ~ Tristram Stuart
Food Waste quotes by Tristram Stuart
Rest time is the waste time. It is economy to gather fresh strength. ~ Charles Haddon Spurgeon
Food Waste quotes by Charles Haddon Spurgeon
Facts are to the mind what food is to the body. ~ Edmund Burke
Food Waste quotes by Edmund Burke
Progress starts with envisioning a new (yet old) lifestyle with the home as central to all aspects of life-work and leisure, food and energy. So, real progress means bringing the economy, beginning with the food economy, home again. ~ Jules Dervaes
Food Waste quotes by Jules Dervaes
I will not move my army without onions. ~ Ulysses S. Grant
Food Waste quotes by Ulysses S. Grant
And finally, for readers who find themselves wanting to know more about the living green that surrounds us, I recommend that they waste no time in getting ahold of P. A. Thomas's book Trees: Their Natural History (2000), ~ Hope Jahren
Food Waste quotes by Hope Jahren
Proximity to the device tempted him, a muted siren's call to undress, open the coffin-like lid and climb into the lukewarm saline solution, to plug his interface jack in, sheathe his genitals in the waste catch and sink down into the glorious rush of jacking in. He missed the freefall adrenaline of consciousness translated into pure data, of his body rendered in liquid mercury, shifting and changing with his every thought. He missed the thrill of cracking databank security, of running from anti-intrusion software and other hackers. ~ Gary A. Ballard
Food Waste quotes by Gary A. Ballard
She asked if I loved another woman, so I answered honestly and said, Dinner was great, but I could go for dessert. ~ Dark Jar Tin Zoo
Food Waste quotes by Dark Jar Tin Zoo
The federal government could make a Rolls Royce affordable for every American, but we would not be a richer country as a result. We would in fact be a much poorer country, because of all the vast resources transferred from other economic activities to subsidize an extravagant luxury. [...] To have politicians arbitrarily change the price tags, so that prices no longer represent the real costs, is to defeat the whole purpose [of an economy: to make trade-offs, with the prices of a market economy representing the costs of producing things].
Reality doesn't change when the government changes price tags. Talk about "bringing down health care costs" is not aimed at the costly legal environment in which medical science operates, or other sources of needless medical costs. It is aimed at price control, which hides costs rather than reducing them. [...]
Whether in France during the 1790s, the Soviet Union after the Bolshevik revolution, or in newly independent African nations during the past generation, governments have imposed artificially low prices on food. In each case, this led to artificially low supplies of food and artificially high levels of hunger.
People who complain about the "prohibitive" cost of housing, or of going to college, for example, fail to understand that the whole point of costs is to be prohibitive. [...] The idea [that "basic necessities" should be a "right"] certainly sounds nice. But the very fact that we can seriously entertain such a notio ~ Thomas Sowell
Food Waste quotes by Thomas Sowell
If you visit your friend, why need you apologize for not having visited him, and waste his time and deface your own act? Visit him now. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
Food Waste quotes by Ralph Waldo Emerson
Vegetarians are the enemy of everything good and decent in the human spirit, an affront to all I stand for, the pure enjoyment of food. ~ Anthony Bourdain
Food Waste quotes by Anthony Bourdain
I cook the food of Macau, my roots and soul food. ~ China Machado
Food Waste quotes by China Machado
You are soul food for my ravenous mind. ~ N.R. Hart
Food Waste quotes by N.R. Hart
Don't waste your love on stupid people. Anyone stupid enough to deny or reject it-in the midst of the Love Depression we're in-does not deserve it. ~ Perry Brass
Food Waste quotes by Perry Brass
Appetite has really become an artificial and abnormal thing, having taken the place of true hunger, which alone is natural. The one is a sign of bondage but the other, of freedom. ~ Paul Brunton
Food Waste quotes by Paul Brunton
time's precious, waste it wisely ~ Kayser U
Food Waste quotes by Kayser U
A life is not a waste of time ~ Nalini Singh
Food Waste quotes by Nalini Singh
Worry is a waste of energy. It cant change the past. It cant control the future. It only makes today miserable ~ Rick Warren
Food Waste quotes by Rick Warren
Editors may think of themselves as dignified headwaiters in a well-run restaurant but more often [they] operate a snack bar ... and expect you to be grateful that at least they got the food to the table warm. ~ Thomas B. Griffith
Food Waste quotes by Thomas B. Griffith
Will you dance for me? Let your breasts roam for a moment
I need to see how they dance.'
'Okay.' She danced, and as she danced, she tried to think of the most delicious salads she could imagine
with artichokes and sundried tomato and blue cheese dressing, and beets, lots of beets. ~ Nicholson Baker
Food Waste quotes by Nicholson Baker
When you control seed you control food ~ Vandana Shiva
Food Waste quotes by Vandana Shiva
There was a moment of silence and then Sutherland breathed, But, darling! Gossip is the food of the gods. ~ Andrew Holleran
Food Waste quotes by Andrew Holleran
I wanted to tell him a story, but I didn't. It's a story about a Jew riding in a streetcar, in Germany during the Third Reich, reading Goebbels' paper, the Volkische Beobachter. A non-Jewish acquaintance sits down next to him and says, "Why do you read the Beobachter?" "Look," says the Jew, "I work in a factory all day. When I get home, my wife nags me, the children are sick, and there's no money for food. What should I do on my way home, read the Jewish newspaper? Pogrom in Romania' 'Jews Murdered in Poland.' 'New Laws against Jews.' No, sir, a half-hour a day, on the streetcar, I read the Beobachter. 'Jews the World Capitalists,' 'Jews Control Russia,' 'Jews Rule in England.' That's me they're talking about. A half-hour a day I'm somebody. Leave me alone, friend. ~ Milton Sanford Mayer
Food Waste quotes by Milton Sanford Mayer
That food was so bad I can't wait for it to become a turd and leave me. ~ Thomas McGuane
Food Waste quotes by Thomas McGuane
The thing about the movie 'Navy SEALs' is that it was just such a waste. The script could've been shaped to be much better, and you just hate to see all that talent and passion go to waste. ~ Michael Biehn
Food Waste quotes by Michael Biehn
I transitioned to being a vegan slowly. I took out beef and chicken first and did research on alternative forms of protein. Then after a few months, I gave up something else but added in new things. You need to bring in new food when you take away the old food you are giving up. Learn about what foods you should be eating. ~ Kim Barnouin
Food Waste quotes by Kim Barnouin
No surprise. I was the only one at Dave and Bubba's not wearing a Ragland Rattlers cap. Talk about feeling disloyal. And uncomfortable.
My discomfort must have shown, because while we were waiting in line to get our food, Jason took off his cap, folded it, and stuck it in his back jeans pocket.
"You don't have to do that on my account," I said.
He shrugged. "I was taught not to wear a hat indoors."
I wasn't sure I'd ever met anyone who did things with so little fanfare. I thought about telling him to put his hat back on, but the truth was, it made me feel less self-conscious not to be the only one. ~ Rachel Hawthorne
Food Waste quotes by Rachel Hawthorne
Anybody have any money?"
Frank checked his pockets. "Three denarii from Camp Jupiter. Five dollars Canadian."
Hedge patted his gym shorts and pulled out what he found. "Three quarters, two dimes, a rubber band and - score! A piece of celery."
He started munching on the celery, eyeing the change and the rubber band like they might be next. ~ Rick Riordan
Food Waste quotes by Rick Riordan
With food shared, friendships grow. ~ Anthony T. Hincks
Food Waste quotes by Anthony T. Hincks
We cannot afford idleness, waste or inefficiency. ~ Eamon De Valera
Food Waste quotes by Eamon De Valera
However, as a parent, as a grandparent, as a former educator, I know that these practices alone when we are dealing with young children are insufficient. We will never control this rising epidemic without greater accountability from the food industry. ~ Bob Filner
Food Waste quotes by Bob Filner
The DC Improv food is amazingly edible for a comedy club. ~ Jim Gaffigan
Food Waste quotes by Jim Gaffigan
You have an eating disorder if diet and food negatively impact your life and add stress where natural calm energy would usually be. ~ Scott Abel
Food Waste quotes by Scott Abel
Totally another bread and circus, when you think about it. That's a Roman concept where the government can do anything, as long as you give the people "bread and circuses." And I'd say this culture right now is similar, as long as people have money, fun, and food, our government can do heinous, heinous things. ~ Ian MacKaye
Food Waste quotes by Ian MacKaye
God never intended us to want anything more than we want Him. Just the slightest glimpse into His Word proves that, Look at what the Bible says about God's chosen people, the Israelites, when they wanted food more than they wanted God: 'They willfully put God to the test by demanding the food they craved' (Psalm 78:18). Yikes ~ Lysa TerKeurst
Food Waste quotes by Lysa TerKeurst
That one can understand The Waste Land without even trying is consoling news for all students of literature. ~ Terry Eagleton
Food Waste quotes by Terry Eagleton
Like many toilets in Goa, it was nothing more than a smooth, steep slope behind the squatting keyhole. Waste matter rolled down the slope to a narrow lane. Wild, hairy, black Goan pigs roamed the lanes, eating the waste. ~ Gregory David Roberts
Food Waste quotes by Gregory David Roberts
Spam is a waste of the receivers' time, and, a waste of the sender's optimism. ~ Mokokoma Mokhonoana
