An analysis of people’s behaviours and attitudes to food consumption and waste in the Cork region
Community-Academic Research Links, University College Cork
There is now more than ever before an emphasis on the amount of food we eat as consumers and the amount of food that is wasted in the process. This is an emerging and important topic in food business and development and therefore the topic meets the criteria for research. The covered topics in this research include what food waste is, why we need to reduce food waste, the main trends that influence food waste and effects food waste has on the environment. It will also cover the development of food waste policies in other countries, the results of research carried out and conclusions and recommendations. These areas give an overview of people’s behaviours and attitudes to food waste and consumption.
