Did you know that enough food is produced to feed the estimated 805 million people around the world that are going hungry each day? Instead, 1.3 billion tons, or one third of the food produced in the world goes to waste1 each year. How can more food end up on kitchen tables to feed more families? High performance food packaging from Dow (dow.com) can help, as well as conscientious consumer behavior both in the supermarket and at home.
In support of this year’s World Food Day on October 16, Dow is launching its Make It Last campaign to bring awareness to the reality of the global food crisis and ask consumers worldwide to make a commitment to help reduce food waste.
