On this week’s episode we have special guest Tessa Clarke, co-founder of OLIO - the food sharing app which connects people to share surplus food.
A third of the food we produce globally is thrown away, and households are responsible for over half of all food waste in the UK.
The average family throws away £800 worth of food each year. That adds up to £15 billion. £15 billion that is going straight to landfill!
Meanwhile 800 million people go to bed hungry every night. That is 1 in 9 people on the planet who are starving or malnourished.
OLIO’s vision is for millions of hyper local food sharing networks all around the world. They believe the app can help create a world in which nothing of value goes to waste, and every single person has enough to eat – without destroying our planet in the process.
The issue of food waste is one close to our hearts - and home. Even working in the industry that we do, we still find we have a problem with food waste at times. We’re intrigued by the way OLIO and others are using technology and other cool solutions to the problem.
Listen to find out more about the food sharing revolution and how you can get involved!
