If Ed Sheeran's "Shape of You" was about Food Waste

  • 0:00 - 0:03
    The club isn't the best place to save the planet,
  • 0:03 - 0:05
    so the restaurant's where I go
  • 0:05 - 0:07
    Me and my friends at the table talking stats
  • 0:07 - 0:10
    about 'bout food waste in the world
  • 0:10 - 0:12
    I saw my dream woman at the bar
  • 0:12 - 0:13
    throw half of her meal out,
  • 0:13 - 0:15
    and my jaw hit the floor
  • 0:15 - 0:16
    She’s perfect in every way,
  • 0:16 - 0:18
    but if she wastes,
  • 0:18 - 0:19
    it’s a dealbreaker for sure
  • 0:19 - 0:20
    Now I’m singing like
  • 0:20 - 0:23
    Girl, did you know how much
  • 0:23 - 0:26
    food in the world gets wasted? 1 point 3
  • 0:26 - 0:29
    Billion tons of food from stores, restaurants,
  • 0:29 - 0:31
    homes, and companies?
  • 0:31 - 0:33
    boy, boy, you talk too much
  • 0:33 - 0:35
    1 in 9 people on on earth go hungry
  • 0:35 - 0:37
    You should take a doggy bag please
  • 0:37 - 0:39
    You should take a doggy bag please
  • 0:39 - 0:40
    Mm mm mm!
  • 0:40 - 0:43
    I don’t love when you waste your food
  • 0:43 - 0:46
    We make way more than we consume
  • 0:46 - 0:49
    Starving kids don’t get to choose
  • 0:49 - 0:51
    When they go to bed hungry
  • 0:51 - 0:53
    At the grocery in aisle two
  • 0:53 - 0:56
    I always buy all the ugly fruit
  • 0:56 - 0:58
    Cuz you know that it still tastes like it’s brand new
  • 0:58 - 1:01
    And it’s good for your country
  • 1:01 - 1:03
    Oh I oh I oh I oh I
  • 1:03 - 1:06
    I don’t love when you waste your food
  • 1:06 - 1:08
    Oh I oh I oh I oh I
  • 1:08 - 1:10
    I don’t love when you waste your food
  • 1:10 - 1:12
    One week in, we let the story begin,
  • 1:12 - 1:15
    follow you home for our first date
  • 1:15 - 1:16
    I’ve made you a flow chart
  • 1:16 - 1:18
    about how you can get smart
  • 1:18 - 1:19
    about your personal food waste
  • 1:19 - 1:21
    I talk for hours and hours
  • 1:21 - 1:23
    about how you have the power
  • 1:23 - 1:25
    to ignore some expiration dates
  • 1:25 - 1:26
    And if your fridge is too cold,
  • 1:26 - 1:28
    then food can grow old
  • 1:28 - 1:29
    a little faster than you'd like
  • 1:29 - 1:30
    And I’m singing like
  • 1:30 - 1:33
    Girl, did you know how much
  • 1:33 - 1:36
    Food thrown away by restaurants is landfill bound?
  • 1:36 - 1:40
    Why'd you throw half of your burger out?
  • 1:40 - 1:43
    boy, boy, you talk too much
  • 1:43 - 1:45
    1 in 9 people on on earth go hungry
  • 1:45 - 1:48
    I think you gotta leave
  • 1:48 - 1:50
    I think you gotta leave
  • 1:50 - 1:52
    Mm mm mm!
  • 1:52 - 1:53
    I don’t love when you waste your food
  • 1:53 - 1:56
    We make way more than we consume
  • 1:56 - 1:59
    Starving kids don’t get to choose
  • 1:59 - 2:01
    When they go to bed hungry
  • 2:01 - 2:03
    Why don’t we call up the EU
  • 2:03 - 2:06
    Petition them for new policies too
  • 2:06 - 2:08
    One in four calories don’t get consumed
  • 2:08 - 2:11
    And no one should go hungry
  • 2:11 - 2:13
    Oh I Oh I Oh I Oh I
  • 2:13 - 2:16
    I don't love when you waste your food
  • 2:16 - 2:18
    Oh I Oh I Oh I Oh I
  • 2:18 - 2:21
    I don't love when you waste your food
