1/3 of the food produced worldwide is either wasted or lost, which means it never ends up where it is supposed to : on our plates. Why is this a problem?  Well, it costs countries millions of euros in lost revenue, causes unnecessary stress on the food chain, and harms the environment by contributing to global warming and climate change. Many myths have been circulating about what causes food waste and who produces more of it. You’ll learn all about it in this episode, and of course, about what’s up in the European Union to help address food waste, because there is no fun without a tad of food policy.
Our guests are: 
Anne-Luz Pijnenburg, member of the Slow Food Youth Network in Amsterdam;
Martin Bowman, food waste campaigner at Feedback;
Tom Václavík, coordinator of Slow Food Brno in Czech Republic;
