Too Good To Go European Sustainable Development Week

Too Good To Go is the app fighting food waste in Spain and Europe, saving tonnes of CO2 emissions. During ESDW we will double our environmental contribution planting by 1tree for every 100meals saved.

Food waste is not only a matter of wasting, but an environmental burden as well. If it were a country, it would be the third largest emitting country in the world. Too Good To Go is changing the scenario preventing food waste through an app that connects stores and restaurants with waste warriors, who save perfect food that otherwise would be wasted. Just in Spain it has already saved 140.000kg of CO2 to the atmosphere, within the 12 cities that form the platform.

 

For the Sustainable Development Week we want to go further and double our environmental contribution, so with the PUR Project (a social enterprise that regenerates ecosystems alongside smallholder farmers) one tree will be planted for every 100 meals saved through the app. As an example, by saving 400.000 meals, 4.000 trees will be planted, which will prevent 1.000.000kg of CO2 emissions and capture another 1.000.000kg of CO2 from the atmosphere, doubling our positive impact.



El desperdicio de alimentos no es solo una cuestión de desperdicio, sino también un grave problema ambiental. Si fuera un país, sería el tercero más contaminante del mundo. Too Good To Go está cambiando la situación evitando el desperdicio de alimentos a través de la aplicación, conectando tiendas y restaurantes con waste warriors que salvan comida en perfecto estado, y que si no hubiera acabado desperdiciada. Solo en España, ya se han ahorrado 140.000 kg de CO2 a la atmósfera, entre las 12 ciudades que se encuentran en la plataforma.

 

Durante la Semana del Desarrollo Sostenible vamos a ir más allá y, en asociación con PUR Project (la empresa social que regenera ecosistemas junto a agricultores sostenibles), plantaremos un árbol por cada 100 comidas salvadas. Así, salvando 400.000 comidas se plantarán 4.000 árboles, evitando 1.000.000 kg de emisiones de CO2 y capturando de la atmósfera otros 1.000.000 kg de CO2 , duplicando nuestro impacto positivo en el planeta.
