According to the UN, the food wasted every year reaches 1000 billion USD, which can meet 0.87 billion hungry people’s needs. Well, we must realize that food waste has become a serious problem. Recently, several Chinese people have launched an operation, calling people to empty your plates when dinning. Many people have joined the operation. Some restaurants even give discount to those who wrap left food after dinner. Do you eat all the dishes you order when you dine at the restaurant?
