你知道香港每天浪費多少噸可食用食物嗎?你知道在龐大浪費的現況下,香港每天又有多少人仍然食不果腹?
Food Commons Foundation共享食物基金會在2009年時發現了這個社會問題,並持續從各大街市食肆回收食物,再免費分配給有需要人士,至今已是第十四個年頭。
It was mid-autumn festival last week and all volunteers still did not forget to cherish food and help others. On the night of the full moon, volunteers worked hard to collect food in different districts and share the collected mooncakes, bread and meal boxes with grassroots neighbours and the homeless spreading the festive blessings and joy to their hearts through food.
香港每日棄置約3,000 公噸廚餘,且絕大部份剩食仍可食用,卻被送往堆填區。 有見及此,共享食物基金連結多個商戶和非牟利機構,現已在全港16個地區進行剩食回收共享工作,包括荃灣、葵芳、青衣、天 水圍、元朗、粉嶺、上水、沙田、大圍、馬鞍山、火炭、大埔、紅磡、土瓜灣、上環、銅鑼灣等。並一直鼓勵社會各界人士支持及參 與,期望將剩食回收共享計劃推展至全港18區,將應對剩食及廚餘的社區經驗推廣給大眾,宣揚惜食文化,同時減少食物浪費,將資源分享給有需要人士。
With the help of hearty volunteers, food sharing action has now been spread to Tai Wai and Tseung Kwan O. After receiving the surplus bread, the elderly who lived alone and night security guards in Tsueng Kwan O all expressed their joy and thanked us for our selfless contribution. The action does not only avoid wastage of bread, but it also satisfies the need of the members in the neighbourhood.
香港每日棄置約3,000 公噸廚餘,且絕大部份剩食仍可食用,卻被送往堆填區。然而在社區上有基層人士三餐不繼,過量的剩食造成浪費,同時亦加重堆填區的負荷。
