Why We Boldly Go: Ben and Lily Tackle Food Loss through Operation Possible

My grandparents are farmers and my parents did some farm work when they were young.

They had the experience of hunger because in 1960 the Chinese people faced a serious food crisis. So they know what really hunger is. They hate all the food waste all their life.

We are influenced by them so we think that it's good to avoid any food waste in my life.

Hunger actually in Shanghai it's really far away from our daily life but food loss and food waste that really exists in every aspect of our life.

For example, people may throw out some food because it does not taste good or it's expired before it's eaten or some food might be thrown away when people bought more than they need.

Isn't it hard to grow grapes? Hard work! It's so hot these days. How is the grape harvest this year? Not bad. I think the grapes are just ripe. Yes. Will there be a problem with such ripe grapes being shipped to customers? It's acceptable. We transport by cold chain, by express to guarantee freshness.

Avoiding food waste should be an education it's an attitude of life. The current solution from team incorporated solar energy as a power input because it's easy for the regions where the power is not stable we can make the storage modular, movable different sizes to fit different needs.

When Operation Possible launched I noticed that it's an employee empowered program that's an innovative program. As I always enjoyed innovative work so I'm excited for that.

We hope our work can contribute to our sustainability. If my idea can help reduce global warming I think it will be the most proud thing in my life
