Fun Fact

The world wastes about 1 billion metric tons of food each year.

  

Food waste is a huge problem. How big? About 931 million metric tons. That's how much food that researchers with the United Nations estimate was wasted in 2019, according to the Food Waste Index Report 2021, which surveyed 54 countries, finding that the majority of wasted food (61%) comes from homes while restaurants and other food services produce 26% of wasted food. Grocery stores make up just 13% of food waste.


Reading Fact

Different cultures have developed their own writing systems, such as the Latin alphabet, Cyrillic alphabet, Chinese characters, and Arabic script.


History Fact

In Venice during the Renaissance there was a case where a rapist was given the choice of going to jail for six months, paying a fine, or marrying his victim. He chose marriage.
