Sustainable development through better food waste management

According to current findings, globally about a third of food produced for human consumption is lost or wasted, which is approximately 1.3 billion tons, and the financial loss is about US $ 680 billion in developed countries and 310 billion in developing countries. (EU FUZIONS, 2016) In addition to representing an economic cost, food waste is also an environmental cost. The aim of the study is to assess the applicability of previous findings regarding drivers of food waste production in consumers households and solutions aimed to reduce such food waste production. Participants were conveniently sampled (N = 256), and the demographic variables were as follows: most participants were university students between 18 and 30 years of age (f = 184, 71.9%), female (f = 173, 67.6%) with the undergraduate level degree (f = 134, 52%) live in a house (f = 200, 78.1%), with the average monthly salary less than 5000 HRK and roughly half of them using biowaste-bins (f = 134, 52.3%). The instrument was constructed for this study purposes. The questionnaire was administered though Google FormsTM, data collection lasted between February 15th and March 7th 2022. The data was analyzed using SPSS 23 (IBM, 2015). How often participants think about the food waste generated by their household has been connected with older age, being female, and living in a condo while at the same time how often participants think about the food waste generation was found to be significant but still weak predictor of the attitude that food waste has a negative impact on the environment, with participants, in general, not having a really strong belief that food waste has a negative impact on the environment. This might indicate that their food waste concerns are mainly focused on equating food waste with money being wasted and not so much with the care of the environment per se.
