Food waste reduction on cruise ships - A project report & implementation guide
Food waste is not only poor cost management but also highly questionable from an ethical and social point of view, especially considering there are almost a billion malnourished people in the world. In fact, we face the challenge of feeding a growing global population of over nine billion people by 2050. At the same time, food waste may also harm the environment, as food decomposition in landfills gives off methane gas, which contributes to climate change.
