Reduce Food Waste

Wasting food also wastes water, energy, and resources. I will keep a daily log of food I throw away during the Ecochallenge, either because it went bad before I ate it, I put too much on my plate, or it was scraps from food preparation, and commit to reducing my food waste throughout the challenge.

Enjoy a Meatless Meal

Producing 1 kg of beef emits as much greenhouse gas as driving 150 miles, meanwhile, 1 kg of veggies or grains leaves a much lighter footprint! This week, I’ll shrink my climate impact by having 2 meatless meals and/or 0 vegan meals each day.

    How was your experience intentionally trying to eat less meat?

    This challenge has been really good so far! I am glad I changed to this action because I have been really good about being consistent with it! I can feel this habit will stick even after the challenge is over.

      Nature is the heartbeat of our planet—a vast, interconnected web of life that sustains and inspires us. From towering mountains and deep oceans to quiet forests and colorful coral reefs, nature offers beauty, balance, and biodiversity.

    Today I went grocery shopping to get foods for this aspect of the challenge! I am super dedicated to going meatless this month and who knows maybe it will continue!

    Today was not too hard to make too much waste!
    - 1 coffee which was finished
    - Chana Masala and rice which was split in two meals
    - 3 Popsicles
    - Box of Mac and cheese
    I wasted none of the food but the Chana and Mac n cheese came in disposable packages so they still created plastic waste as well as the plastic on the popsicles.

    Today my mom and I planted a ton of flowers for the pollinators! We also just took some time to admire the nature in our area.

    An average American throws out about 240 lbs of food per year. The average family of four spends $1,500 a year on food that they throw out. Where would you rather use this money? What patterns did you notice in the food you threw away, and how can you address them?

    I wanted to start logging the food I am wasting on here as well as the journal

    - Today for breakfast I made: 3 eggs 2 toast and 2 sausages. I wasted 1 egg and 1/2 toast I think my eyes were hungrier than my stomach.
    - For lunch I made 1 coffee and finished it!
    - Dinner was a box of mac and cheese and broccoli which was finished but the broccoli scraps went to the compost!

      Keeping track will help you figure out what changes to make to reduce waste.
