#foodwaste

1 message1 participant0 message aujourd’hui

We all know that over 30% of food is wasted. Do you really care about reducing food waste? Then let’s create impact together!

An omnivore diet consumes about four times the resources of a plant-based diet. So, even if you waste half of your plant-based food, you’ll still have a much lower resource footprint than an omnivore who wastes none.

So: Fight #FoodWaste --> Go #PlantBased!

A recent study takes a closer look at two groups who care deeply about food, for different reasons. It exposes a paradox: people who prioritise healthy eating waste less food, while those focused on sustainability do not necessarily follow through with waste reduction.

This suggests encouraging healthier eating habits might be a better way to cut household food waste than sustainability messaging alone.

The ConversationWhy healthy eating may be the best way to reduce food wasteA survey shows people with healthy eating habits tend to waste less food than those who focus on choosing ethical and environmentally friendly products.

For various reasons, mostly to do with #FoodWaste schemes, I sometimes end up with food that we wouldn't ordinarily buy, because we wouldn't eat it.

This isn't a bad thing. I like a challenge. I like figuring out what to make, and trying new recipes.

But two large bags of clementines have me stumped.

I made marmalade once and vowed never to torture myself like that ever again. All other recipes need, like, two clems, or a pint of double cream.

So... #recipe ideas, anyone?

#Composting program to provide #Everglades with soil for #CommunityGarden

by Martin Vassolo, March 12, 2025

"Your food scraps could be used to help support the Everglades through a new partnership between the village of #PinecrestFL and the #MiccosukeeTribe.

"Instead of dumping #FoodWaste into crowded #landfills, which produce #methane emissions, the #EvergladesEarthCycleProject will expand Pinecrest's residential composting program and deliver nutrient-rich soil to the #Miccosukee Tribe.

"Driving the news: The project, funded with a $400,000 federal grant and other contributions, calls for installing four new #CompostingBins in Pinecrest and three around #MiamiDade County District 7.

"The initial phase of the program will supply compost to the #SwampyMeadows #CommunityGarden, which grows vegetables just outside the Miccosukee Indian School.

"Another proposal that's been floated is adding new soil to the Everglades' tree islands, though that would need tribal approval, says the Rev. Houston R. Cypress of the #LoveTheEverglades Movement, a partner in the program.

"Cypress told reporters on an airboat ride through the Everglades last week that the tribe teaches 'the essence of being in harmony with nature is giving back to it.'

"'With the Everglades Earth Cycle Project, we're giving back clean and healthy soil; we're giving products that might eventually improve the water quality out here, but we're also giving directly back to local indigenous communities here,' he said.

"Pinecrest already has two free public composting bins, one at the Pinecrest Public Library and another between the Community Center and Pinecrest Gardens."
