The World Environment Day is in our doorstep. The theme of this year's WED is "Think Eat Save"- Reduce your foodprint.

It is stunning to know that over 1 billion (means 100 Lakhs) tons of food are lost or wasted every year (According to UNEP it is 300 million tons). Also 900 million people are hungry in the world. One in every seven people go to bed hungry. 20,000 people die of hunger every day.

Be aware of these stunning facts and reduce your food print in all possible ways.
