Our purpose 

The purpose of Stop Wasting Food movement is to fight food waste and over-consuming. Every Danish citizen in average throws 63 kilos (138 pounds) of good edible food away every year. While there are about 6 million children worldwide dying of hunger every year. Food waste is also very bad for the environment, because it causes raise in CO2 emissions and thus plays a part in global warming.

Who are we

Stop Wasting Food is a consumer movement founded to raise public awareness about the food waste subject and hopefully to eliminate food waste in Denmark. Stop Wasting Food movement also inspires Danish citizens to take action and donate their good and fresh leftovers to shelters for homeless people.

What do we do 

The movement's 6.000+ members have actively begun to take up the fight against food waste. Members of Danish Parliament, EU politicians, top Michelin chefs and major Danish food personalities are also supporting the Stop Wasting Food movement. Stop Wasting Food movement has also received a major and positive media coverage in 60+ Danish newspapers, magazines, radio, television and blogs.

What do we want to do  

Stop Wasting Food movement is a private-based and 100% non-profit organization. We have many plans, among them the Leftovers Cookbook and Stop Wasting Food campaign. All Stop Wasting Food's activities will be sponsored by various funds.
