Food waste has become a critical global issue. Almost 10% of the 8 billion people on Earth are undernourished, but nearly a third of the food on our planet is trashed before it\u2019s eaten.<\/span><\/p>\n

A startup called Positive Carbon has proposed a solution. The Irish company has developed a sensor-based system that tracks, traces, and reduces food waste.<\/p>\n

According to the startup, the tech has triggered 50% reductions in waste \u2014 saving over 4,000 tonnes of food. Designed for commercial kitchens, the tech can cut costs as well as litter.<\/p>\n

Mark Kirwan, Positive Carbon\u2019s CEO, told TNW that hotels, hospitals, workplaces, and university campuses could all reap the benefits.<\/span><\/p>\n
