22. GARBAGE CAFE

25. 1. Don't waste food
If you have leftovers, freeze
them for later, or use them as
an ingredient in another meal
When you eat at a restaurant,
ask for half a portion if you're
not feeling too hungry, or take
your leftovers home
2. Produce more, with less
Using an integrated farming
approach will not only help
farmers increase their crops'
yield, and thus their profits, but
can also improve the quality of
their farmland.
3. Adopt a more healthy and
sustainable diet
Share your quick nutritious recipes
with your family, friends, colleagues
and online
Follow sustainable chefs and bloggers
online to learn new recipes or talk to
your local farmer to see how they cook
their produce at home
4. Advocate for #ZeroHunger!
Establish ZeroHunger partnerships,
share knowledge and resources,
develop innovative strategies and
discover new opportunities to
contribute to the fight against hunger.

27. End hunger, achieve food
security
