Why take this initiative? According to ADEME, around 10 million tonnes of products intended for human consumption are lost or wasted in France every year. It is important to put leftover food from workplace and school canteens or events to good use. Redistributing leftover meals to an association such as the Croix Rouge or the Banque Alimentaire is a great initiative to reduce your carbon footprint and make people happy!
