Ending food waste one beer at a time | Rob Wilson | TEDxExeter

One third of all the food produced in the world goes to waste. And in the UK, 44 per cent of all the bread we bake gets thrown away. What if drinking craft beer could be part of the solution to food waste? Rob Wilson will tell you about his mission to make that dream a reality.

Rob is an award winning social entrepreneur and Chief Toaster at Toast Ale. He believes that if you want to change the world, you have to throw a better party than those destroying it. Prior to Toast, Rob led Ashoka in the UK, supporting a global network of social entrepreneurs. He founded READ International which has provided over 1.5 million books to Tanzanian children and created 100 school libraries. He co-founded Generation Change, a partnership of leading UK youth social action organisations, and Undivided, a non- partisan campaign lobbying for the best possible Brexit deal for young people.
