Top of the Food Chain

Timothy Birdnow

Doesn't the Spanish government have anything at all more pressing than wasted food? I mean, they are being reconquista'd and here they are sweating over tossed grapes and the like. So typically socialist; everything is a government matter and the public and business has no say.

Il cibo non si butta. Punto. In Spagna sarÃ a breve una realtÃ : dal 2023, grazie a un poderoso piano anti-spreco che coinvolge medie e grandi imprese che saranno "costretteâ€ a trasformare la frutta non vendibile, ad esempio, in marmellata o in succo. Mentre i ristoranti si doteranno obbligatoriamen te della "Doggy bagâ€. Sono solo alcune delle proposte contenute nel disegno di legge al vaglio. Poche settimane fa il governo socialista guidato dal presidente Pedro SÃ¡nchez ha infatti approvato un progetto che punta a un unico obiettivo: non gettare via il cibo con lâ€™ambizione di fare scuola in Europa.

Come spiegato dal ministro spagnolo dellâ€™agricoltur a, della pesca e dellâ€™alimentazi one Luis Planas, il nuovo strumento adottato dal Governo modificherÃ i processi della catena alimentare nei punti in cui essa Ã¨ piÃ¹ inefficiente. Ma, ispirato allâ€™economia circolare, il "progetto di legge sulla prevenzione delle perdite e degli sprechi alimentariâ€ Ã¨ notevole anche sul piano etico, dal momento che include progetti collaborativi tra ristoranti, organizzazioni di quartiere e banche alimentari. Pena? Multe salatissime fino a 500 mila euro. I numeri a suffragio, sono di fatto impietosi: 1.300 tonnellate di cibo (31 kg pro capite) che ogni anno vengono gettate dai cittadini.

You don't throw food. Period. Spain will soon be a reality: from 2023, thanks to a powerful anti-waste plan involving medium-sized and large businesses will be "forcedâ€ to turn unsold fruit into jam or juice. While restaurants will be obliged to get the "Doggy bagâ€. These are just some of the proposals in the bill under consideration. A few weeks ago, the socialist government led by President Pedro SÃ¡nchez approved a project that points to a single objective: don't throw away food with the ambition of making schools in Europe.

As explained by the Spanish Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food Luis Planas, the new tool adopted by the Government will modify the processes of the food chain in the points where it is most inefficient. But, inspired by the circular economy, the "bill on the prevention of loss and food wasteâ€ is also significant on the ethical level, since it includes collaborative projects between restaurants, neighborhood organizations and banks I got groceries. Worth it? Hefty fines up to 500 thousand euros. Suffering numbers are actually ruthless: 1,300 tonnes of food (31 kg per capita) that are thrown away by citizens every year.
