Rishi Nigam, CEO of Franklin Junction, the restaurant e-commerce growth platform that unlocks access for brands to untapped customer demand. getty It seems like only yesterday that delivery food was mostly limited to Chinese food and pizza. But in the years since 2017, as we’ve shifted to a digital-first mentality, food delivery has tripled in value and grown into a $150 billion global industry.

‘So how, exactly, does throwing away cauliflower leaves or a pack of squishy tomatoes contribute to global warming?” asks Lindsey Harrad in her new book, Living Plantfully. “The link is more direct than you might expect. Global food waste alone is responsible for 8-10% of all greenhouse gas emissions.” If food is wasted, so are all the resources that went into producing it, including the water and land use (including any potential deforestation), animal feed, fertilisers, pesticides, processing, packaging, transportation, […]

A food crisis putting nearly 50 million additional people around the world at risk of famine has no quick solutions, officials with the World Food Programme and its U.S. counterpart told Fox News. The war in Ukraine is fueling the food shortage, but supply chain complications stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic, rising costs and climate issues, has compounded the crisis, according to the officials. “We have more threats to food insecurity than […]
