DRAWDOWN – Food Waste
Recently, sharing the Happy Hens story with friends, they told me that of the top eighty most effective actions to lower atmospheric CO2 and make a more sustainable planet – SOLVING FOOD WASTE IS THIRD.
(Data from Paul Hawken’s “Drawdown.”)
Revelation:
I collect a pickup bed of leftovers for our chickens EVERY SINGLE day, so I”m deeply aware of food waste and the importance or solving this issue. But the 3rd most effective action on a global scale? Reducing food waste? I had no idea.
Awed by the possibilities. More on that next time. |
