In the age of #CircularEconomy asking #FoodIndustry to #SelfReport #FoodWaste is such a waste of time and energy TBH. Especially if nobody checks them afterwards whether the reported figures are accurate.

The focus should be on a #ZeroWaste #IndustrialPolicy, especially in the #UK where government committed to #ZeroWasteEconomy.

Self-reporting is extremely flawed and unreliable. Also, allowing any waste in industry is way past its expiry date, it is time to move on.
