Speech: Stop Food Waste

Good Morning everyone,my name is Nancy Today, I want to talk about food waste. Around the world, people throw away a lot of food every day. Sometimes we buy too much food, cook too much, or forget leftovers in the fridge. This is a big problem. Many people in the world do not have enough food to eat, but at the same time, we waste food that is still good and safe. Food waste is also bad for the environment. When we throw food in the trash, it goes to landfills. There, it breaks down and makes harmful gases that pollute the air. Wasting food also means wasting clean water, energy, time, and money.

Second, eat leftovers and do not throw them away. You can also share extra food with others. Third, check the expiry date of food and use it in time. If we all take small actions, we can help reduce food waste. We can hel...
