Would you try food made of rubbish?When world
leaders got together at the UN for a meeting on climate()
change,they had a special lunch.The food was made from
something that most of us would throw away.There was a
salad made of vegetable scraps(剩菜叶).The leaders also had
hamburgers made of fruit left over from juicing.
The UN said this reminded people about food waste and
the bad influence it has on climate change."Food waste is not
often noticed in climate change,and that is shameful when so
many people are in hunger,"said a government secretary.
Most people don't even realize how much food they throw
away every day.Sometimes they cook too much or they don't

produced worldwide goes to waste,according to the UN.Stop
the waste,and the whole world could save 300 billion from
wasted food.More importantly,it could also do less harm to
the environment.
Think about a bag of cheese().Before we buy it at
the store,people have to raise the cows,deal with the milk,
and drive to the shop to sell the cheese.If you throw the
cheese away,you have wasted energy,fuel()and water,
which give out greenhouse gases that add to global warming.
The UN said if we stop throwing good food away,we
could cut down up to 17 million tons of CO2.The good of that
would be the same as taking one in every four cars off the
road.
