for their daily lives. There are some factors that lead to this problem, and I believe effective solutions would
shouldbeproposedsoontotacklethisissue.

To begin with, there are several reasons that make people waste a lot of food. Firstly, as people are getting
richernowadays,theirappreciationforfoodisbecomingincreasinglylow.Thisleadstothefactthattheyoften
order plenty of dishes, especially expensive ones. As a result, the amount of leftovers is huge. Secondly,

would have to pay 20% more as a fine. In addition, media should report more about food shortage in some
deprived areas like Africa or Asia and the status of foodwasting phenomenon, which allows people to have
moreinformationaboutlivesofthepoorandthequantityoffoodwastedeverydayallaroundtheworld.Asa
result,awarenessofsavingandappreciatingfoodwouldgraduallyberaisedamongthepublic.

In conclusion, wasting food, which is a bad habit, is becoming increasingly common, is a bad habit and
