The article discusses two innovative tools launched by ReFED aimed at tackling food waste. The goal is to achieve a 50 percent reduction in food waste by the year 2030.
The two primary tools introduced are designed to profile food waste innovation and policy. They provide critical data and insights for stakeholders across the food system.
This tool catalogs emerging technologies and business models that prevent food waste or recover surplus food. It helps entrepreneurs and investors identify opportunities.
This tool maps existing and proposed policies related to food waste at local, state, and federal levels. It assists advocates and lawmakers in understanding the regulatory landscape.
The deployment of these tools is expected to streamline efforts and accelerate progress toward the national 2030 food waste reduction target.
The tools utilize comprehensive data analysis to highlight the most effective solutions and policy levers for maximum impact.
By providing clear profiles of innovation and policy, these tools empower a coordinated effort to significantly cut food waste in the coming decade.
