Food Waste Challenge Incentive
Sending your food waste to landfills is a huge waste of resources. You can turn it into compost and fertilize your soil!
Every day, a total of 1,750 tonnes of waste are being sent to Pulau Burung Landfill. It is alarming that food waste is accounted for 40% of the total waste. As a preventive measure – by converting food waste into fertilizer could reduce the amount of food waste being sent to the landfill, hence increasing the lifespan of the landfill as well as to combat climate change.
WHY
To divert food waste away from our landfill in a responsible manner
To encourage sound food waste management system amongst industries
To lower the unused methane emission produced by food waste
OBJECTIVE
Encourage key industry players to play their roles in environmental conservation, particularly in food waste reduction and diversion.
WHO SHOULD PARTICIPATE
Open to factories, hotels/ resorts, institutions with food waste management system, and community-based projects
