Wasting food

'There are now 7 billion people on earth, twice as many as in 1959. And twice as many starving people in the 3rd world.

A quarter of the food the 1st world wastes would be enough to feed the 3rd world.

Australia wastes >$5.2b in food pa. That's about $225 pp. We waste most in fruit and vegetables ($1.1b).

If all of us cut out waste, more food might be available for the 3rd world. Probably not, biofuels might be more profitable.
