Today is Food Waste Friday! Take this opportunity to learn about the staggering impact of food waste in not just Canada but all over the world. Did you know that one-fifth, or 19%, of all food produced in the world is lost or wasted every year. That’s one billion meals a day wasted, due in large part to household food waste practices. That’s a global loss of roughly CAD $1.35 trillion. By planning meals, storing food properly, and getting creative with leftovers, we can all play a part in reducing this waste. Turn awareness into action and take the Food Waste Pledge: https://lnkd.in/giMNmt5Q #FoodWasteFriday #WasteReduction #Sustainability #CircularEconomyMonth

Find a local repair café. 2. Learn a new repair skill. 3. Support local repair shops and tradespeople. 4. Consider hosting your own repair or e-waste collection event. https://lnkd.in/gNDzVxkj   Every item repaired is a step towards a more circular economy!
