Universal/Social Impact Design
Background
Globally, the amount of solid waste is increasing every year. Even though the government spent tremendous amounts of money to handle the waste, there is a shortage of places to put the waste. According to research, food accounts for 15% of household waste. Upcycling food waste to use 100% of the food itself will help with the landfill issue.
