It is reported that much of about 70 percent of global food supply consumed by urban people is thrown away. Although the causes of food waste vary from one region to another, generally poor food planning, inadequate packaging, improper storage and cultural practices are all contributing to the problem. In addition, food waste which is filling up the landfills decomposes and generates methane, a greenhouse gas that is more harmful to the planet than CO2. This scenario is a huge waste of food, energy, money and even natural resources such as land and water. Citywide measures for recovering safe and nutritious food and redistributing it through charities and food banks, composting or utilizing discarded food to generate energy can make a huge impact in reducing food waste. In Peru, the issues of food loss and waste have been solved by one of FAO's initiatives that has established a composting centre for managing biomass waste. As a result, the amount of disposed organic waste has been cut dramatically. (Adapted from Question 1. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A.
