APPROXIMATELY 792.5 MILLION PEOPLE IN THE WORLD DO NOT GET THE FOOD THEY NEED TO

LIVE A HEALTHY LIFE.

THAT IS NEARLY ONE OUT OF EVERY NINE PEOPLE ON EARTH.

1.3 BILLION TONS OF FOOD ARE WASTED EVERY YEAR.

JUST ONE QUARTER OF ALL WASTED FOOD COULD FEED THE 792.5 MILLION

UNDERNOURISHED PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD WHO SUFFER FROM HUNGER!

DID YOU KNOW THAT…

• Hunger kills more people each year than AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis combined.

• Poor nutrition causes nearly half (45%) of deaths in children under five – 3.1 million children each year.

• Nearly 50% of people living in extreme poverty are 18 years old or younger.

• Out of a world population of 7 billion, 2 billion people suffer from some form of micronutrient deficiency.

DID YOU ALSO KNOW THAT…

• Roughly one third of the food produced in the world for human consumption every year — gets lost or wasted.

• Over 97% of food waste generated ends up in the landfill.

• Food waste that goes to the landfill breaks down anaerobically and produces methane; methane is 21 times more potent than CO2 as a greenhouse gas.
