Sagot :
When he was a teenager, the food Tristram used to give to his pigs was actually perfectly fit for human consumption. It was coming from supermarkets' downstairs, then sent to landfill sites.
At least one third of the food supply is currently being wasted, and it has led to a huge environmental catastrophe and it is the major contributor to that scarcity of food in some parts of the world.
Ridiculous cosmetics standards are layed down (= imposed) by supermarkets and European America.
Tristram talks about a "food waste scandal"; he says that we must make people believe that food is far too valuable to waste. He takes the example of what happens in Kenya, where farmers throw thousands of tones of food every year when millions of people don't have enough to eat .
Tristram in the founder of an organization, which tries to inspire people to take action in their own lives; so his first objective is to spread the global food waste revolution and they’ve found a way: a massive free feast during which people are collaborating with each other using food, rather than throwing it away, and having fun!
Today, Tristram sounds hopeful because food redistribution has doubled in the UK over the years. He had been campaigning for nearly twenty-two years, and what used to be a neglected issue is now treated as a global priority.
The message is that we can change the system; if we don't, nobody else will; everyone should feel responsible for it.
