Week 9 Food Waste in United States Video Discussion

Please watch the following video from late night talk show host, John Oliver:

1. John Oliver uses humor to present a very important issue, food waste? What does he claim is happening in the United States? Why?

2. How does Oliver’s talk compare to Stuart’s (from last week’s discussion)? What differences do you see in information presented, tone, language used? Who do you find more credible? Why? Both author’s present true facts. How does the way the present it affect their reliability?

3. Are you guilty of food waste? What was the last thing you threw away (food-wise)? Could it have been eaten?
