Digital Platform Aids in the Fight Against Hunger – 24/07/2024

A startup social Comida Invisível, localizada no Butantã, está lutando contra o desperdício alimentar, conectando grandes empresas e ONGs por meio de uma plataforma digital. Essa iniciativa surge da crescente preocupação com a quantidade de alimentos em bom estado que são descartados, enquanto muitos ainda sofrem de fome.

O nome da empresa foi inspirado pela fundadora, Daniela Leite, que ao observar a quantidade de frutas e verduras descartadas no Ceagesp percebeu que esses alimentos eram como “comida invisível”. “Eram produtos aptos para consumo que acabavam no lixo”, explica Leite, ressaltando a gravidade do desperdício global, que chega a 1 bilhão de toneladas anuais, volume suficiente para encher mais de 9 milhões de aviões. No Brasil, a situação é alarmante, com 26 milhões de toneladas de alimentos jogados fora a cada ano.

Com sete anos de existência, Comida Invisível começou como um grupo de estudos sobre segurança alimentar e foi evoluindo até a criação de uma plataforma digital. Após uma experiência voluntária em um banco de alimentos, Daniela percebeu que o impacto era limitado e idealizou um sistema que conectasse doadores e ONGs usando geolocalização.

Hoje, a plataforma conecta cerca de três mil ONGs com mais de 700 empresas, incluindo grandes nomes do setor alimentício. As doações englobam alimentos industrializados próximos da data de validade e produtos com imperfeições estéticas que ainda são seguros para consumo. Em 2022, a Comida Invisível conseguiu destinar o equivalente a 2,4 milhões de refeições para as ONGs e almeja dobrar esse número este ano.

Entre as doações, produtos como tomates são frequentemente repassados pelo McDonald’s, enquanto a Ambev doou recentemente 60 toneladas de água engarrafada com previsão de chegar a 370 toneladas. A empresa conta atualmente com 20 colaboradores em suas operações em São Paulo e Recife, e atua em todo o Brasil, otimizando o uso de alimentos que, de outra forma, seriam desperdiçados.

“Estamos transformando a forma como encaramos o desperdício”, afirma Daniela. “A comida não deve acabar em aterros, mas sim na mesa de quem precisa.” A Comida Invisível representa não apenas uma solução prática para o desperdício alimentar, mas também destaca a responsabilidade social das empresas envolvidas na causa.
