1. Buy and cook ingredients on demand

With the development of economy and society, the proportion of grain price in income has gradually decreased, and it is not difficult to meet the basic needs of cultural protection. People are increasingly pursuing "eating well". From the perspective of individual consumers, no matter what ingredients you buy, please buy and eat as needed, and don't waste them. Because the production of grain, not only some people are working for it, but also there are resources and environmental costs behind it. Take water resources as an example. The water footprint of a 111g apple is 71l, that of a cup of coffee is 141l, that of a hamburger is 2411l, that of 1 kg barley is 1311l, that of 1 kg beef is 15511l, that of 1 l milk is 1111l ...

Second, advocate the new fashion of "good food"

From the choice of ingredients, reducing the proportion of meat and increasing the proportion of vegetarian food are more conducive to personal health and environmental protection. "Good Food" refers to a diet that is friendly to the environment and personal health, and it is not completely equivalent to food. In addition to delicious food, the concept of "good food" focuses on the sustainability of food choice and the sustainable development of human society.

Third, stop food waste

A report in 2118 showed that the per capita food waste of catering industry in China was 93g per person per meal, with a waste rate of 11.7%, while that of large-scale parties was 38%, and 1/3 of students' lunch boxes were thrown away. This is not surprising. The following picture was taken in July 2119, when the author was in a meeting, in the dining hall of a Chinese prefix research institution. The complete steamed stuffed bun, fried cake, eggs, bowls of bean curd and cold dishes were discarded like this, which is a great pity!

IV. Publicity signs should be provided for public dining occasions

In canteens, restaurants, hotels and other catering-related occasions, such as "CD Action" and "Saving Food" can be posted. Consumers and diners are encouraged to pack up and take away the food they can't finish.

5. Provide legal protection for grain saving.

Saving resources and protecting the environment are the basic national policies of our country. It is imperative to advocate a simple and moderate, green and low-carbon lifestyle and oppose the green development and lifestyle of extravagance, waste and unreasonable consumption. Grain saving is an important content of creating ecological civilization and realizing green development.
