Throughout the world, the problem of food waste keeps growing, compounding the larger problem of waste and garbage.
There are a number of ways to tackle this problem. One involves wasting less food.

South Korea has embraced composting and linked it to urban farming, with training programs that teach people how to compost food waste.
