I think, as individuals; we all need to pick up our game and do our part in polluting and destroying the planet more. We can't let the corporations do all the heavy lifting after all.
Edit: I don't think I came across properly here, given the replies. This was sarcasm saying we need to fuck up the planet more to keep pace with the rate the corporations do.
But we are. According to the USDA, food waste makes up 22% of the food industries 26% CO2 emissions. And don't forget the diseases food waste produces.
That food waste is largely due to arbitrary date labels and grocery stores throwing out literal tons of perfectly good food instead of donating it.
How can we sell more without an expiration date?!!! We need to please the profits and shorten expiration dates!
