It is a routine business practice in the retail grocery industry to overstock food, not in the expectation to sell it all, but to allow customers to see a bounty of food. If they didn't, many items wouldn't be sold.

Q: How can we have so much food and at the same time so many don't have enough? A: Food Waste

[Waste Not Want Not @WasteNotWantNo7]

Since food waste has an increasingly harmful impact on our economy, environment and nourishment, how might we implement new alternatives regarding food-disposal in Flagler County so that food waste is reduced in 2019 and beyond?

[Waste Not Want Not @WasteNotWantNo7]

Since Flagler county has a 15.3% food-insecure rate, then residents may not be able to fulfill their basic needs.

When several tons of rotting food is aggregated and compacted together within a landfill, the anaerobic conditions results in methane, a greenhouse gas that is over twenty times more potent than carbon dioxide at trapping heat.
