150,000 truckloads of food lined up from Zurich to Barcelona: that’s how much food we waste in Switzerland every year.
While doing research for program 10 of the podcast “2040 j’y vais!”, about food waste, I was shocked by the scale of the phenomenon. How is this possible? But in the end, isn’t the essential question “how else can we do it? And here’s the good news: solutions exist and can even be fun to implement!
