well much buildup on off assessing the look she couldn't actually pushing french after which
00:00:08
to be a a thank you for one would join this workshop and the stars yeah the cofounder of
00:00:12
cut shows also here and we'll be doing little workshop the you can join off if you'd like to
00:00:18
uh so i won't talk about what we actually do it quite show um to talk more
00:00:21
about the food way situation uh it's in the well the end in switzerland and focusing on
00:00:26
oh what food waste actually means for us and what we can do about it
00:00:32
so these are few images that we've taken a over the past two years of restaurant
00:00:37
trash bins a compost bins and hotels in hotels restaurants and canteens
00:00:42
uh around the country and so it's kind of proof that food waste is a real issue
00:00:47
and that we can really tackle even make a big difference uh no matter how we do that
00:00:53
uh he's a few shocking number as a one third of all the food that is produced
00:00:56
along the global supply chain is thrown away one third that's the size agriculture lee of china
00:01:03
or if we take it down to switzerland if also all this with wood waste you could if you
00:01:08
could spread it on the ground it would equal the area the size of the can tone of zurich
00:01:14
that's a lot um it's not only through this going to waste it's watered slave uh it's energy um and it's land
00:01:22
yeah and if when you're whatever you whatever commercial kits and throws away
00:01:26
one key lower put waste equals completely uh in total five francs and
00:01:30
fifty cents so it's a lot of money going to waste as well
00:01:33
so we're tackling a catcher both the food waste situation and the food cost situation in the hospitality industry
00:01:40
uh as specifically if you take all the kitchens other few too many numbers
00:01:44
but if you take all the kitchens of all the restaurants and hotels around switzerland
00:01:47
that would be cool seven tons of waste the kitchen it's massive it's very big
00:01:53
a contract early so you have this massive waste problem and on the other side you have
00:01:57
eighty seven percent of travel is next year to say they want the trials this terribly
00:02:02
well they want trouble sustain early in the going to these places uh they're wasting so
00:02:06
much food and also other types of energy uh there's a misfit that there's a mismatch
00:02:12
um this is from booking dot com study may become button got dot com two years ago
00:02:16
uh also sixty eight percent intend to stay in a in a hostile or hotel or motel
00:02:21
uh that is eco friendly it's hard to say we go friendly when you waste as much food
00:02:27
uh so it's not only the consumers that telling the industry what they expect
00:02:31
uh it's also regulation and as was mentioned before uh they're these uh i
00:02:36
mean you're all aware of the probably of the sustainable development goals of the un
00:02:41
so we're tackling uh we're trying to tackle to make sure that the
00:02:45
un reaches this goal of a ensuring sustainable consumption and production because if the
00:02:51
consumers of fighting and the regulation is fighting this creates kind of a force
00:02:56
effect an issue will have to change and it is changing for the better
00:03:00
why just ways actually exist other five key areas of i. p. drives the food waste we don't know enough about it
00:03:08
the infrastructure that we currently have to bring food from point a to point
00:03:12
b. does not exist or is inadequate it exists but doesn't do very well
00:03:16
uh there's a lack of focus on waste we focus very much on uh making money in making revenues making sure
00:03:23
that uh you know with we don't want puzzles and we can forget about the rest we can forget about the waist
00:03:30
until today which is great um there's we collaboration we don't really work together
00:03:34
to find solutions uh and their inspection regulations this is something it's also changing
00:03:41
so i'm not gonna go into depth about uh about like he solutions for each one
00:03:45
uh but quite show with doing both were trying to increase awareness by speaking to you
00:03:50
for example of just increasing visibility about the about the issue uh and doing talks around switzerland
00:03:56
uh we're creating conscious consumers people who know a bit more about the issue and can subconsciously do something about it
00:04:04
there's a this possibly to to do to to solve also um the lack
00:04:09
of focus on on waste in the in the in the in supply chain
00:04:13
um the second thing we do cut show is we using digital tools to
00:04:17
improve the tracking it you can put numbers on issue then you couldn't take actions
00:04:22
to reduce the waste if you don't have the numbers it's kind of fluffy it's up in the uh you don't really know what you can do about it
00:04:27
so we're striving to put numbers on the swiss food waste issue and also global food with issue
00:04:32
so the hotels restaurants whole study industry any canteen can then take action because they know what's happening
00:04:39
really work together to do this and redesign better policies that actually not only say we want to reach these goals
00:04:45
but say okay if we don't reaches goals will be some kind of penalty oh you know we have to change something
00:04:53
so uh let's go a little bit in the gut show so we are trying to solve this uh put this issue the kind of prove that
00:04:59
increasing visibility and putting numbers on the issue uh that creates dramatic results positive results
00:05:06
uh let's take all hotels for example in the twenty hotels that we worked with uh last year
00:05:11
um over two week time period they wasted on average a
00:05:15
hundred fifty eight kilos of food you calling eight hundred to
00:05:19
frank's into a two week period of time and just off the three to four months of knowing what's happening in the kitchen
00:05:26
they were able to reduce and take action by significant
00:05:29
drastic amount seven hotels were something canteens just by knowing
00:05:33
and taking action uh you can make a positive difference of everyone knows a little bit more
00:05:37
about the issue that's a positive a step and the second happening every single restaurant incessant like you
00:05:46
hi
00:05:49
i think you were mad
00:05:52
how much you reduce the ways than them i mean i think
00:05:55
measuring is one thing but then i imply implementing the changes is developing
00:06:00
you may be a comment quickly would be done this yet so
00:06:04
we uh we well maybe it's easier to explain what we do then
00:06:08
uh we have a device that goes into the kitchen the device is made up of a scale that goes on the ground
00:06:14
and the scammer that looks inside the the the garbage can and you can sit take these photos
00:06:18
and that been goes on top of this so every time the rest the the shuffle the service number throw something away
00:06:24
uh we can take automatically the weight and the picture and then we on the back and identify what's being
00:06:29
thrown away exactly so that we can give that back to the chef and say this is exactly with runway
00:06:34
with no effort on this site is no clicking as a button they don't have to identify themselves we do that for them
00:06:39
so we do that analysis part for them that's not enough always chef sometimes in some support
00:06:44
and so we get that them support in terms of recommendations that we give them how to reduce this waste
00:06:48
um and we do that not because we're experts we do that because of other chefs we learn from the past
00:06:54
and we creating these best cracked this is so if they have a problem with the rice waste of the bread waste we can go to them and say
00:07:00
here are three good things you can do it in order to reduce that's we give concrete examples how it's been done before
00:07:07
okay perfect thank you very much and so we want to give you not do possibility or just uh
00:07:12
to exchange of a tree a person presented here and for this we have prepared to the tree tables
00:07:19
and you would like to uh try new the table that you
00:07:22
would like to add so you pretty choose and uh discuss what uh
