Food Waste Issues
Every year 1.3 billion tons of food are produced and one-third of it ends up as food waste (FAO, 2017). The National Waste Management Information System in Indonesia also shows that the composition of food waste in 2020 reached 93% (Ministry of Environment and Forestry, 2022).
Large amounts of food waste can trigger climate change due to the increase in carbon produced. The estimated carbon generated from food waste reaches 3.3 billion tons of CO2 or the equivalent of greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere per year (Wulandari and Asih, 2020).
Food waste production in Indonesia is generated by several parties, including households, restaurants, shops, institutions and industries. The lack of food waste management by households leads to high food waste production due to the lack of integration between households and waste bank managers.
