Should the government invest in programs to reduce food waste?

The government is so inefficient in everything it does, this would just be another waste of taxpayer dollars

Yes, but not in a way that introduces consequences to people who do. Programs can be created but only as encouragement to decrease food waste.

No but require all private companies and corporations to donate all merchandise that could not be sold on time.

invest in farmers who reuse the food watste. There is a pig farmer in the USA who recycles garbage to feed his pigs for record revenues. Our government should consider similar ideas.

Yes, but make it a municipal issue, along with recycling, and incentivize the to throw waste properly

depends on cost as much of the food waste now is a cost issue

Yes, and charge/tax food companies based on how much product they throw out into trash.

No, our taxes are already covering their that service

Yes. The government should hold large grocery corporations responsible for their contributions to this problem.

No, I dont respect people or companies that waste food but we cant control it in the end

They should invest in programs that turn food waste into potential food for the poor and fertilizer for agriculture
