This matters because with one-third of all food produced globally currently going to waste, and much of it ending up in landfills, the environmental, economic and social costs of the linear economy are significant. At its core, a circular food system aims to design out waste, keep resources in use for as long as possible, and regenerate natural systems. This could mean repurposing surplus food, turning by-products into new ingredients, or using organic waste to create compost or bioenergy. It also involves redesigning packaging for reuse or recyclability or shortening supply chains
