How can effective redistribution of unused food mitigate the damage of food production on the environment?

We know that's a mouthful of words so we've broken it down to the questions in the order we're asking them. Basically, we intend to figure out a strategy for food distribution in the future. Because food production puts such a huge strain on the environment, we shouldn't be wasting any. But we all know that's not gonna happen, so which foods do we focus on first, in terms of innovation and technology? That's what we found out. And this is how we got there:

❓ Part 1: How much food is being wasted now and in the future?

Why? Food wastage sucks!

❓ Part 2: What is the cost of food production and how does each sector affect the environment?

Why? We think some sectors like meat contribute more to land, water and air pollution.

❓ Part 3: What is an optimal strategy for redistributing food, such that by doing so, we minimize the damage to the environment?

Why? From Part 1 and Part 2 we can say that reducing waste by redistributing the wasted food from some sectors can have a larger impact than others.

Let's begin with part one!

PART ONE — Where we find how much food is wasted now, and in the future.

We can see that most countries are increasingly well-off when it comes to food.
