  1. Just so you know, that "50% of food is thrown away" includes ALL food - including things that aren't edible, like apple cores, melon skins, etc. It's further interesting to note that, when it comes to food there is no "correct amount", there is either "too much" or "too little"; it's not possible for supply to perfectly match demand due to the inherent variability in farming. Sure, if we could precisely measure the exact nutritional requirements for every person and produce food in a completely controlled environment, with 100% guaranteed yields, and then store and transport it without any delay or loss due to accidents, we could, theoretically, have "zero waste" in food. Meanwhile, in reality, I'd rather "waste" a little food occasionally than condemn everyone to starvation and malnutrition... Unsustainable agriculture is clearly demented, but the main proponents of unsustainable practices are actually Environmentalists - especially the militant vegan types.

  2. The only thing "green" about "The Green New Deal", was the name. The actual document was thoroughly red.
