Waste Reduction Guide

The importance of reducing the amount of food and materials we throw away cannot be overstated.

Our global landfill sites are overflowing. Our rivers and seas have become dumping zones. According to the World Bank, the world generates 2.01 billion tonnes of municipal solid waste per year, with at least 33% of that not managed in an environmentally safe manner. 

In order to protect our ecosystems, conserve natural resources, and cut global greenhouse gas emissions, it’s essential that every business looks to understand, manage and reduce its waste streams.
