Let us remember that #ZeroWaste is first and foremost about using what you have. It is not about going out and buying/replacing everything with a non-plastic alternative. Get creative with what you’ve got and the outcome might surprise and enliven you. There is beauty in thrift.
Social innovation & positive disruption to implement climate change plan from @DaneCoJoe. “The math just works”. Several million in profit w/ RNG plant alone and solar projects profitable too. Dane County leads the way and designs the roadmap. #circulareconomy#sustaindanesummit

@ZeroWasteChef Thank you for this. We are frustrated by the lack of reuse and repurposing. Zero waste can seem inaccessible when composed imagery depicts it with a house full of shiny new “zero waste” purchases. Bravo to your leadership!
An idea for reuse that is just so perfect for escaping the heat, burning through kid energy and reusing materials. #Zerowaste is making the most of what you have and indulging in creativity. https://t.co/tY0aPMHLwa
Just a PSA: Expanding our conception of "edible components" of plants is important, but we must be careful. We've heard from many people that recipes instructing them to cook with banana peels have made them horribly ill( for days). Try a very small amount first....
We’ll be there this Friday to chat #zerowaste and we’ll share how to make refreshing, sparkling summer drinks with shrub or drinking vinegar with the byproduct of jam or preserve making.
A8: Fill your pantries with local food. Farmers markets and farm-to-table restaurants are shutting down, so now is SUCH an important time to buy local!!! Lots of CSA style options popping up. Help out the small farmers :-) #FoodFri https://t.co/8332bEYwVV
A8: Stock up on dried beans, grains, chiles, canned goods and buy fresh and freeze if the freezer aisles are empty. Learn to garden! It’s good exercise during #SocialDistanacing You can buy seeds with #SNAP! This backyard garden is $20 in seeds and 15+ types of veggies. #FoodFri
A7: NAC, Elderberry extract and Spiruluna and other neutraceuticaks show reduction of symptoms and halved the death rate according to this new research. #FoodFri https://t.co/FYIyfsEi9B
A4: Food delivery is important. The shelves have little to no #WIC foods. Can we pilot a program to get grocery stores to prepackage WIC approved foods before hoarders clear the shelves and transit workers to do delivery for SNAP and WIC? #FoodFri
Q4: How can struggling households get food on the table during the pandemic? If I suddenly lose my job or have had reduced hours because of #coronavirus, how can I make sure my family has enough food to eat? How can I access #SNAP (#foodstamps), #WIC & other programs? #FoodFri
A3.2: We created an easy-to-read one page handout, which shares @CDCgov’s recommendations regarding breastfeeding and COVID-19. Check it out! #FoodFri https://t.co/BBNatl5ixT
A3: According to the @CDCgov, the #coronavirus has not yet been detected in breast milk, and it is highly likely that the infant has already been exposed to the virus by the time the diagnosis is made in the mother. #FoodFri
We recorded this #SaludTalks podcast before COVID-19. 😱
"We are at a point where we are going to see further divides between wealth and inequality if a fundamental shift is not made in this country," said @DwayneWharton of @thefoodtrust. #FoodFri https://t.co/rUg6rjniRF
