France became the first country to legally require supermarkets to donate unsold but edible food to charities instead of throwing it away. The landmark law aims to cut food waste, fight hunger, and build a more humane food system. Stores partner with food banks and NGOs to redistribute surplus food to people in need. The policy has helped reduce landfill waste, lower greenhouse gas emissions from rotting food, and improve access to meals for vulnerable communities. France’s model is now inspiring other countries to rethink food waste laws and create win–win solutions for people and the planet.
