France becomes the first country in the world to legally require supermarkets to donate unsold food to charity to food banks, which then distribute it to people in need.

According to Zero Waste Europe, stores larger than 400 square meters must sign agreements with food warehouses to redistribute unsold, but safe-to-eat items.

These foods include fresh produce, packaged goods that are nearing their expiration date, and other excess items.

The law also prohibits supermarkets from intentionally spoiling food, such as pouring solutions containing chemicals on items that are meant to be consumed by people in need.

This law will help provide millions of meals to people in need and has inspired similar policies across Europe.

This makes France a world leader in reducing food waste.

According to the Organic Authority, the law allows charities to distribute millions of additional meals each year, significantly improving access to food for vulnerable populations.
