Support Earth Day!

On a global scale, humanity throws out approximately 1.3 billion tons of food a year, or one-third of all of the food that is grown for human consumption. Producing food that goes uneaten wastes a variety of resources including land, soil, fertilizer, water, seeds, energy in addition to wasting hours of labor. Fortunately, there are actions that we can take today to reduce food waste and help us each to do our part in the world.

Check out the new video below to learn from the experts at Ecoversity about tips and tricks to reduce your everyday food waste while earning up to 300 points.
