What is the significance of the establishment of the anti-food waste law?
With the continuous improvement of people's living standards, we have money in hand, and can eat a lot of things that could not be eaten before, coupled with the fact that there is no need for people to scrimp and save as much as they used to, so a lot of people in the usual food and drink is very wasteful. Especially in some dinners or banquets, the phenomenon of waste is very serious, there are also some anchors in order to be able to win everyone's attention, will go to do some eating broadcasts, but they will often be eaten due to the variety of things eaten very much and then waste. These are some of the most important reasons why food waste is a problem nowadays. The reason why the anti-food waste law was established is to be able to put an end to the phenomenon of food waste, because food is not easy to come by, and it needs to go through a lot of processes before it can come to our table. Once people form the habit of wasting, it will have a very big negative impact on the social atmosphere, so the anti-food waste law can help people realize that wasting food is a very bad practice, but also can curb some of the waste of food behavior.

Although the state has been vigorously advocating the elimination of waste, but some people still in order to highlight their status, in order to order a lot of food, and finally can not eat the waste. After the establishment of the anti-food waste law, once the waste of food, is likely to face some penalties, which can effectively eliminate the phenomenon of waste of food occurs, people will eat as much as point as much, then the food waste behavior will be reduced, but also from these penalties to realize that they should avoid food waste behavior, after all, the food is not easy to come by.
What can we do to reduce food waste?
We can start from the small things around us in our lives, such as first of all establishing the consciousness of cherishing food. Secondly whether you are eating at home or rather ordering at a restaurant, always remember to eat as much as you can and order as much as you can. Don't feel hungry to eat a lot and end up ordering more than you can eat. You can choose to order less and continue to order if you don't have enough to finish. In this way you can effectively avoid ordering too much food to eat. If you really order too much is really can't eat, this time must be with the restaurant to pack box, will not eat all the food packaged to take home to eat at night, or friends and family who did not eat can also eat. This will be a good way to not waste food. In this in life will encounter their own families or friends in the dinner time there is a waste of food behavior, must tell him to waste food this thing is not right, and exhort him to do to cherish food this thing. There is also a need to educate children from an early age to know how to cherish food, which is something we can do, so that everyone understands that to cherish food is to cherish the happy life we have.
