  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Food Composting
    Producing food that goes uneaten squanders many resources—seeds, water, energy, land, fertilizer, hours of labor, financial capital. Which of these kinds of waste most motivates you to change your behavior regarding food waste? Why?

    I have a large family and we used to waste a fair amount of food but now we waste less and get to help the environment too.

      IT is hard for large families- maybe bring leftovers for lunch?
