No clue what the discussion was like in the techbro thread, but you said it yourself: these are the easiest to regulate. Stores may represent just 5% of the waste in France (how about in the US?), but what is the waste per business? Bigger or smaller than the 20-30 kg per year associated with consumers? It's a lot easier to target a few individually large problems than a bunch of decentralized individually smaller ones. Edit: it also sets precedent (and hammers out kinks) needed to target larger sources of waste, like the 26% that comes from restaurants and other shops.

Liberal_L33t posted:Which is why this thread almost immediately devolved into clucking of tongues about such people even though it was pointed out almost immediately that food waste from supermarkets is the most easily preventable and thus makes the most sense to focus on. There is no "almost" about this. I said this in the very first reply of the thread, and pointed out that the argument was even raised in the OP itself.

wateroverfire posted:Cool source with data from the US. thanks. The OP says that 67% of food is lost at the consumer level in France, no? That is a far cry from 21%, and suggests that legislation targeting businesses and producers is even more important here.
