Red at morning, sailors take warning. I did not take this warning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Project 4 started off as calm as a summer breeze. I started by blazing through domain research. This was the very start of the design for good project which I started by doing domain research. I took a look at The UN sustainability goals found here https:\/\/sdgs.un.org\/goals<br>The ones that stuck with me were 2. End Hunger, 12. responsible consumption &amp; production, and 13. climate action. These three really stuck with me as my family have voted green ever since moving to England and the values I was raised on were all encapsulated by these. I was interested in them also because of the knowledge I have that comes from my working history. I worked part-time at the Norwich Recycling Centre. Full-time at Asda where I worked as a produce employee for five years and then moved on to the waste\/reductions team where I worked for another year. So it came as no surprise to me when those sustainability goals were the ones I enjoyed the most.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My initial thoughts were I could produce a service app to help reduce food waste. However, when you take the user out of user design you&#8217;re left with bad design; so I had to find out where in the world needed a food waste reduction app. I looked into different countries and found that sub-Saharan Africa had the highest amount of food loss. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-duotone-default-filter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1000\" height=\"743\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nua-ux.design\/robert-atsumi\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/statistic_id1331954_food-loss-between-harvest-and-retail-by-global-region-in-2020.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-141\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nua-ux.design\/robert-atsumi\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/statistic_id1331954_food-loss-between-harvest-and-retail-by-global-region-in-2020.png 1000w, https:\/\/www.nua-ux.design\/robert-atsumi\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/statistic_id1331954_food-loss-between-harvest-and-retail-by-global-region-in-2020-300x223.png 300w, https:\/\/www.nua-ux.design\/robert-atsumi\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/statistic_id1331954_food-loss-between-harvest-and-retail-by-global-region-in-2020-768x571.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The choice is obvious!
