Why Solving Food Waste Matters
Manage episode 513988757 series 2781096
The impact of food waste goes far beyond what ends up in our green bins or landfills. It affects our climate, our wallets, and our communities from wasted water and emissions to economic loss.
In part two of our conversation with Dr. Kate Parizeau, we are talking about why food waste matters and what can actually be done about it - from policy and infrastructure changes to simple actions we can all take at home.
Resources:
- Second Harvest and Value Chain Management International report - The Avoidable Crisis of Food Waste
- Food insecurity among Canadian families (StatsCan)
- The Seed (Guelph, ON)
- Echo Food Rescue (Lacombe, AB)
- Circular Innovation Council
