According to the organisation Land schafft Leben (Land Creates Life), 800 euros worth of food ends up in the bin per household per year. Across Austria, this adds up to around one million tonnes of avoidable food waste every year. From a global perspective, a third of our food is - to put it bluntly - produced directly for the rubbish bin. So much for the facts, which are an absolute disaster not only from an economic, but above all from an ecological and moral point of view. Because all of this could be avoided. Our lecturer Barbara Kramer-Meltsch tells us how we can do this in the new podcast episode.
We need to question our consumption habits. Nowadays, our society is used to food being available in abundance. We take it for granted that supermarket shelves are full at the end of the day. As a result, we often don't shop in an environmentally conscious way. A rethink is urgently needed here.
Barbara Kramer-Meltsch, Lecturer in the Department of Health
What can we as consumers do to help curb food waste? And where is the food chain failing so badly in the first place?
We answer these and other exciting questions in the Campus Talk. The food expert will also talk about various campaigns and initiatives that not only help the environment, but also provide financial relief.
The podcast was recorded by Bianca Nastl , a member of the marketing department at Burgenland University of Applied Sciences and herself a graduate of the university's Bachelor of Information, Media and Communication programme: "I definitely have to take myself by the nose when it comes to food waste. It starts with small things, such as taking the yoghurt in the supermarket that is about to expire so that it doesn't end up in the shop's rubbish bin. I'm very pleased that a lot of educational work is already being done in the media and through campaigns such as TooGoodToGo, Unverschwendet etc."
