One sentence you wrote that stood out to me was, “It just shows where there was enslavement and historians estimate that about 100,000 freedom seekers managed to successfully…Read More -

Dear madai:
I am impressed by your post, “Wate less, Save more, Live more,” because it is impressive how much food we waste. I think it’s impressive how much food is produced in the world.
One sentence you wrote that stands out for me is: “For example, in Nigeria, there is a lack of electricity, making it difficult to preserve food leading to food being wasted. About 31% of the total land use in the country is used to grow food that winds up being wasted.¨ This shows how much food people waste.
Thanks for your writing. I look forward to seeing what you write next because I like how you showed how much food is wasted in the world. I would like you to continue telling about food waste in the world.

Dear Madi:
I am interested in your post, “Wate less, Save more, Live more,” because I think food waste is a big deal in our nation. Many people overlook the importance of conserving food instead of wasting it. Also it wows me to think how much food is actually produced in the world.
One sentence you wrote that stands out for me is: “I learned that about ⅓ of food produced in the world for humans every year is lost or wasted. This adds up to 1.3 Billion tons of food every year.” I think it is crazy that we produce so much food for it to go to waste and still have extreme poverty in other places. I also think that we should waste less food in our own homes.
Thank you for writing. I look forward to seeing you write in the future because I would like to learn more ways to reduce the waste of food. I also enjoyed learning about how we can change things in our daily lives that can have an impact for something good.

Dear Madai :
I am intrigued by your post, “Waste Less, Save More, Live More,” because you talk about how you learned about ⅓ of food produced in the world for humans every year is lost or wasted. A lot of food in the world is wasted think about when you eat a plate of food you don’t always eat everything on the plate imagine for all the people in the world.
One sentence you wrote that stands out for me is: “For example, in Nigeria, there is a lack of electricity, making it difficult to preserve food leading to food being wasted. About 31% of the total land use in the country is used to grow food that winds up being wasted.¨ This stands out because it gives you an idea of how much a land wastes food.
Thanks for your writing. I look forward to seeing what you write next because you talked about an interesting topic and did an amazing job presenting your concern about food waste and how we need to learn how to save more food.
