Make the following brief and concise and the output is in bullet form:
Wasted food is not limited to mere disposal; it involves a multifaceted challenge with far reaching environmental, economic and social consequences. Throwing away food not only wastes nutrition, but also wastes the complex network of natural and human resources invested in growing, producing, processing and transporting it. This egregious waste extends beyond the dinner table, causing significant economic loss as edible food is needlessly thrown away, reflecting resource inefficiency.
In addition to the immediate economic impacts, there are broader concerns about environmental and climate impacts. Food waste manifests itself as a lost opportunity to save resources and energy, which increases the carbon footprint associated with its production and distribution. To curb these harmful effects, a holistic approach is needed, focusing in particular on the complex dynamics of public markets, where significant quantities of food are routinely wasted due to spoilage, overproduction or mismanagement. This problem statement underlines the need to develop practical methods to reduce food waste at these key hubs, recognizing the interconnected challenges of storage, transport, consumer behavior and distribution. The overall goal is to address the complex web of food waste issues and promote sustainability by reducing its adverse effects on the environment, economy and society.
