The main content of "CD-ROM Action" is to advocate the practice of economy and oppose waste, and to encourage people to cherish food and eat all the food on the plate. Details are as follows:
The CD-ROM Action was initiated by a group of people who are enthusiastic about public welfare. The purpose of the CD-ROM Action is: not to order more in the restaurant, not to play more in the cafeteria, and not to do more in the kitchen. Develop the habit of living a life that cherishes food, practicing economy against waste, and not just an action. Instead of just packing your meals in restaurants, order what you need, eat what you need in the cafeteria, and cook what you need at home. The "CD-ROM action" is being launched to remind and caution people that hunger is not far away from us, and even if we cherish food, saving food is still one of the ancient virtues to be observed.
Background
More than 30 years ago, the feeling of hunger was still very much a part of Chinese life. Many people in remote mountainous areas still had monotonous food and food was still scarce.
People really need to reject a kind of "tongue-tied waste". Survey results show that Chinese consumers waste 8 million tons of food protein and 3 million tons of fat each year on food and drink, which is a minimum of 200 million people's annual rations. People's wasteful eating habits must be corrected, and the system, more need to stop excessive public spending on food and drink set up a "firewall".
On World Food Day 2012, the State Food Administration launched an initiative for the first time to promote voluntary participation in the 24-hour starvation experience in order to better alert the world to "not forgetting the disaster year, not forgetting to economize on the increase in production, and not wasting money on consumption". Of course, everyone doesn't have to experience hunger again, but people do need to find a warmth and respect for food.
