Statement

The world’s climate crisis is a significant global struggle, primarily due to the immensity of wasted food overloading landfills. Forty percent of all food in the United States goes to waste. Human consumption, or lack thereof, produces more food waste than any other factor of the food chain.

“Resolve” is a brand that utilizes an app design that I have created to combat the food waste epidemic. This application encourages users to reduce food waste on an individual level. The use of simple and interactive elements educating users of human contribution while simultaneously guiding them toward decreasing their waste. The ultimate goal is to spread awareness and provide a solution, through structure and active engagement humans gain control of this planet’s future. 

Included features range from virtual grocery lists and virtual pantry portals, providing users with a more productive shopping experience. These frameworks combat over purchasing and frequent trips to the grocery store, thus saving the user money and time. By directly addressing expiration dates, portion planning, efficient food storage tactics as well as meal preparation options, Resolve is removing stress and providing a solution to food waste.
