Denmark’s Food Waste Vigilante

BBC World Service - People Fixing The World, Denmark’s Food Waste Vigilante

Meet the woman who’s made it her mission to stop Danes throwing away food

Food waste is a massive global problem: the EU alone throws away 88 million tonnes a year.  Much of this ends up in landfill and produces dangerous greenhouse gasses which contribute to climate change. In Europe 53% of food waste comes from households, and one woman has made it her mission to stop Danes throwing away food.  We travel to Copenhagen to meet Selina Juul, a key part of Denmark’s food waste revolution.
