Anti-food waste is of great significance

Today's society is rich in material, the country and the people are even richer, and the virtue of cherishing food still has to continue to be carried forward

On December 22, the draft anti-food waste law was submitted to the 24th meeting of the 13th National People's Congress for deliberation, establishing rules and regulations for tackling "waste on the tip of the tongue"

"Who knows Chinese food is hard, every grain is hard", "One porridge, one meal is hard to come by", "Civilized dining, eliminate waste".

The anti-food waste law is formulated at the national legislative level, and the policies and measures that have been effective in recent years in China’s practice have been upgraded to legal provisions, and the responsibilities of all relevant entities have been clarified, which is conducive to establishing a long-term mechanism, giving play to the leading and standardizing role of the law, and establishing it for the whole society Basic code of conduct for catering consumption and daily food consumption

Previously, some localities and departments issued regulations that catering companies can charge consumers with more leftovers a certain amount of money.

After charging the "food waste disposal fee" into the law, there are still many details that need to be clarified

In recent years, some places have explored legislation to combat food waste, and have achieved positive results

Diligence and frugality and cherishing food are the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation.

The inclusion of anti-food waste into the track of the rule of law is worth looking forward to.
