[FOOD WASTE LAW IN SWEDEN]

Curious about how Sweden, often recognized as one of the world’s most environmentally conscious countries, manages its food waste? 🤨🇸🇪

In 2024, Sweden introduced a legal requirement for residents to sort their food waste so it can be processed into biogas and used as an energy source.

Do you think a similar policy could be implemented in Indonesia? 🤩
