Food Waste Social Media Campaign

I started researching the impact of food waste early on in my college career.
Food waste is now becoming a more prevalent issue tightly associated with nutrition.
As the population grows and food costs sore it's going to be more important to use our resources responsibly.
Four of us students started a social media campaign that targets college students at dinings halls.
Our goal was to increase awareness about the amount of food waste and to reduce the amount of plate waste that accrues during a meal zone.
