Sustainable eating is about choosing foods that are good for the environment and for our bodies. According to the 2019 EAT-Lancet Commission, a global shift toward more plant-based foods is necessary for the health of the earth and the health of the world’s growing population.
Sustainability in the hospitality industry, particularly around food waste proves to be a huge problem. According to Eco-Business,
“about 25% of all food that passes through hotel kitchens is thrown out as food waste, and for every dinner the hotel serves, about 350 grams is binned.”
On top of the staggering amount of food wasted in the hospitality industry, food sustainability needs to take into account many more factors. It needs to be aware of where the food is being sourced from, how much energy is required from planting to plate, and who is harvesting the food.
