Friday Buffet

Seattle never ceases to amaze. The Seattle Food Recovery Initiative is doing wonderful things, including this Hunger Map that encourages and facilitates food donations. The map has helped restaurants like the Capitol Grille do their part.

Here’s an insightful Hartford Courant editorial, which, I couldn’t help but notice, notes that my alma mater, Wesleyan University, is composting its food waste.

While we’re doing editorials, here’s a call to waste less food from China. It’s well done and carries a good deal of weight, given the devastation there.

Finally, here’s a tale from a responsible, determined food recycler. Of course, it helps to live in the UK where you can have a company pick up your industrial-scale food waste for delivery to an anaerobic digester….but still.

    I really enjoy your blog. for a long time, i have always been “food waste conscious” that is, i hated wasting food…either don’t buy it, eat it, or cook it and freeze it before it goes bad.

    Thanks for all your informative posts!

    I am enjoying reading your blog and look forward to reading your book some day.

    I write a blog called “The Non-Consumer Advocate” http://thenonconsumeradvocate.wordpress.com . I issued a “Waste No Food Challenge” a few weeks ago and have been pleased by the number of people now discussing this important issue.

    My blog for tomorrow discusses your blog and has a link to it.

    Thanks for bringing the issue of wasted food to the masses!
