Expressing support for the recognition of September 29, 2025, as "International Day of Awareness of Food Loss and Waste".
HRES 778 is a non-binding House resolution expressing support for recognizing September 29, 2025, as "International Day of Awareness of Food Loss and Waste." It does not create new laws or programs but formally acknowledges the issue through congressional resolution. The resolution cites statistics on global food waste (including $1 trillion in annual losses and 8-10% of greenhouse gas emissions from food waste) and aligns with the existing 2024 National Strategy for Reducing Food Loss and Waste. It serves only as symbolic support for raising awareness, with no direct policy changes or obligations for individuals or entities.
