3:42 am

3:44 am
and into the trash with it worldwide around one point three billion tons of food is wasted every year much of it ends up in landfills some goes bad on fields or if not properly refrigerated in storage containers or on lorries but a lot of what gets dumped is actually perfectly edible europeans alone throw away around one hundred fifteen kilos of food per person per year that shocking considering eight hundred twenty one million people worldwide suffered from chronic undernourishment in twenty eighteen some of them in your. once a week stanislav opens up his garage for the needy he distributes groceries mostly to pensioners and single mothers today he has pizzas that have almost reached their sell by date supermarkets are no longer allowed to throw these products away they are legally obligated to give them to charity organizations. to frank of us happy
3:45 am
she can now invite her grandchildren to dinner. you know i have a very small monthly pension like one hundred fifty euros and if you have to buy coal and pay for electricity it can get pretty bad. drops by stanislav garage every week she's only thirty but is unable to work due to heart problems she's eligible for a mere one hundred sixty euros of government support not enough to get by on stanislav gives her three pizzas and some beverages which will keep the family going for about five days. this is do you know. at first i was ashamed to come here because a stranger was just passing out food and i'd never done anything like that asking a stranger for food even though i know he helps other people to me he explained to me how it works that i should come every thursday at a certain time so that's what i do now automatically. still.
3:46 am
young kid me picks up food from supermarkets in and around prague every day. the law requires stores to give him goods that are about to expire. and that's a good thing says the employee at the prague food bank. that's terrible when you see how many people have nothing to eat over a week and then all these things end up in the garbage in the supermarket it's just terrible. and you yogurt fruit and chocolate are stacked in boxes in the prague food bank the charity distributes ten tons of food daily to twenty two thousand needy people in and around the czech capital almost nothing is thrown away here the food is picked up directly or distributed to homeless shelters and soup kitchens. mama nadi could be to put that have in the law now allows us to have much more detail a ball and a much broader range of study we now have a lot more perishable including fruit and vegetables. supermarkets think the law is
3:47 am
wrong they've already cooperated with aid organizations in the past the guidelines merely increase the bureaucracy they say. the rules are pretty strict sometimes we have to look very closely at which fruit we're still allowed to deliver and which ones we're required to throw away and the charities have to prove that the fresh produce is passed on quickly. but it wasn't the supermarkets who took the issue to the constitutional court senior politicians argued that it reminded them of communism and that other potential beneficiaries will losing out. our complaint was about the state press scribing who the chains have to give the food to. some shops for example used to get the product. but they're no longer allowed to do so despite the quantities available being enough for everyone . when i was emotional it's not enough says stanislav saturday
3:48 am
due to high food prices even regular pensioners are dependent on his help in his opinion the state is reluctant to help those in need but. the problem is that there aren't many people like me who say to themselves well i have my pension i don't need to earn money and so i can help on a volunteer basis i don't add anything when i do this i go with you know. stanislav would now like a refrigerator in his garage so that he can legally store and distribute even more but the czech republic is by no means a paradise for the needy. and now to north africa and an almost forgotten conflict since one nine hundred seventy three the polish sario front national liberation movement has been campaigning for an independent state in the western sahara. is fighting ranged in the desert for.
