A recent collaboration among the Stockholm International Water Institute, the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization and the International Water Management Institute culminated in a report titled, “Saving Water: From Field to Fork – Curbing Losses and Wastage in the Food Chain.” The report states that in the United States alone, 30 percent of all food is thrown away, which is the same as wasting 40 trillion liters of water – enough for domestic use by half a billion people. These major organizations are calling on governments worldwide to reduce food wastage so as to conserve water, curb food shortages, and minimize world hunger.

Stockholm International Water Institute, UN Food and Agriculture Organization and International Water Management Institute, we laud your dedicated research and proposed solutions for wise food use. We pray that nations adopt these suggestions along with the plant-based diet for the maximum preservation and benefit to all people on Earth.
