Being Green - 18 August 2017

--:--
It's estimated that almost one third of food produced in South Africa for human consumption is effectively thrown away, most of it ending up in landfills where it produces a large amount of methane, a powerful greenhouse gas. Equally disconcerting it that this happens despite the fact that some 13.8 million South Africans go hungry every day. In this edition of Being Green, we talk to an organisation called Food Forward SA, which is making a difference by collecting edible surplus food and redistributing it to organisations that feed thousands of people daily.
