If 1000s of us share the video, then it could go viral and send our petition stratospheric - then the supermarkets will really start to feel the heat to end food waste!
The video includes the stories of struggling farmers forced to waste their crop because of supermarket policies, including one farmer who had to had to plough 300,000 perfectly edible cabbages back into the field.
Share with your friends and spread the word! We've already presented supermarkets with a skip load of food waste, and had meetings with Tesco, Sainsbury's and Morrisons, but so far they haven't committed to ambitious targets to reduce their food waste. If we turn up the pressure, we can get them to act!
Thank you to the over 2000 of you who emailed and tweeted at your MP to encourage them to support the Food Waste Bill, which if successful will regulate supermarkets to compel them to tackle their supply chain food waste. This is having a huge impact - if you haven't emailed your MP yet, here's the link again: http://bit.ly/1YWfUcn
We'll have more exciting updates about taking the fight against food waste to parliament and our meetings with the big supermarkets soon!
