Think #foodwaste isn’t a problem in #Canada? Every year, avoidable household food waste in Canada totals 2.2 million tonnes. That’s equivalent to 2.1 million cars on the road. If we all stopped wasting food, it would save 9.8 million tonnes of CO2 emissions.

A third of the food produced globally is lost or wasted. Food waste contributes 8-10% of man-made greenhouse gas emissions.
Wasting Food Feeds Climate Change.

Everyone in Ottawa right now constantly talking about how great Canada is now doing on climate needs to take a serious look at this chart. And before you tell me its a legacy issue let's remember that we have had @JustinTrudeau Liberals since 2015. 7 years. #cdnpoli
Have you heard of the Sníchim Foundation?
They are a non-profit foundation that is revitalizing the language of the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish) People.
They are a local Vancouver group that is deserving of your charitable gifts!

Who gets to say what a "food asset" is, and is the concept of "food assets" perpetuating colonial thinking? Our journal article is now open access! @TammaraSoma https://t.co/Psw3gZezbD
