How much does eating locally-produced food help the climate problem? What are the other potential environmental and social benefits of eating locally-grown/produced food? Do you have a food garden in your school or at home? If not, do you want one?

Big Waste of Food Around the World
I believe that food wasting is a big problem around the world. Sub-Saharan Africa and South/South-East Asia waste about 6-11kg per person per year, and people in Europe and North America waste a good 95-115 kg, and that's not even all of the continents.Over 30% of food is wasted each year. Because of this waste, more than 50 countries are battling hunger. There are many ways to solve this, for example, not buying things that you don’t need, having samples in every store( a lot of people buy things they have never tried and end up not liking it and just throwing it away.), and donating good food that you don’t like.
