Summit 3: Waste and climate change

Saving food:

What I know about the food that is wasted:

Approximately $1 trillion of food is lost or wasted every year — accounting for roughly one-third of the world's food. According to the U.N. ... Roughly 30 to 40 percent of the food supply in the U.S. is wasted, which works out to more than 20 pounds of food per person per month.

What I do to save food:

· Store food in airtight jars and glass jars

· We take advantage of food that is already cut

· Freeze leftovers, and ingredients!
