"The Secret of the Slashed Tray"... Dramatically Reduced Food Waste View original image

Eunpyeong-gu, Seoul (Mayor Kim Mi-kyung) is seeing significant effects from the 'Food Waste Reduction Rainbow Tray' created with students' ideas. Since last month, Eunpyeong-gu has been promoting the reduction of food waste in the district cafeteria through the 'NO Leftover Campaign,' and announced on the 29th that food waste was reduced by 13% in November compared to the previous month.


One of the secrets is the 'Food Waste Reduction Rainbow Tray,' which is marked with slashes to measure meal portions. According to Eunpyeong-gu, this tray, designed with ideas from students, is also credited with creating a case that successfully reduced school food waste by 70%.



Kim Mi-kyung, Mayor of Eunpyeong-gu, stated, “Conducting an environmental protection campaign in the district cafeteria, used by many employees, is meaningful as it spreads a culture of low-carbon living within the administrative environment,” and added, “We will continue to focus on reducing food waste through ongoing campaigns.”
