As of January 1, 2022, the New York food waste law will impact organizations located within 25 miles of an organic waste recycler. Here’s how you can determine if this law applies to you and what waste management options exist.
Given that individuals aged 24 years and younger today account for nearly 40 percent of the entire global population, sustainability education can serve as a powerful tool for helping today’s youth drive needed reductions in global warming.
When food waste enters the LFC biodigester, it seemingly disappears in just a few hours. This seemingly magical process is actually the work of billions of tiny little microbes in a special mix called Powerzyme. We dive into how microorganisms help turn food waste into water in a natural process called aerobic digestion.
Many businesses fail to understand is that the initial costs of sustainability actually lead to long term savings and costs. In a recent LinkedIn Live with Bruce Carnohan, we discuss five ways on how using an onsite food waste digester improves business operations and affects the areas of: convenience, cost, compliance, cleanliness, and control.
As sustainability has become more mainstream, awareness is also growing around the environmental stewardship of food products. We review a holistic approach and a cost case for sustainable food practices.
Between 30% and 40% of food supply in the United States goes to waste each year, according to the USDA, with tremendous impact to the environment from agricultural processes to the disposal of food waste. The food waste hierarchy pyramid is an ideal framework for addressing this problem. By applying this framework to your corporate sustainability plans, organizations can make a tremendous impact on reducing food waste and its impact on climate change.
As the world slowly begins to reopen, restaurant owners find themselves facing new pressure points that the post-pandemic era has unwittingly created. Though many restaurants are cutting costs in various areas, we have found that sustainability is key in addressing these issues and helping restaurants persevere through these new uncharted waters.
With more than 80% of its 1,190 coral islands standing less than 1 meter above sea level, the Maldives is particularly vulnerable to changes in sea level. If global warming continue at the same pace, most of the Maldives Republic’s 200 inhabited islands may need to be abandoned by 2100. We discuss how the Maldives are currently tackling waste management and how sustainable changes can save the islands.
Over the course of two days, experts in the fields of agriculture, sustainability, climate change, and renewable technologies shared their visions in the first Carbon Summit. We review how achieving these carbon reductions requires recognition that sustainability takes many forms and requires a community that can build progress together.
