Reduce Food Waste

Reduced Food Waste

I will keep a daily log of food I throw away during Drawdown Ecochallenge, either because it went bad before I ate it, I put too much on my plate, or it was scraps from food preparation, and commit to reducing my food waste throughout the challenge.

DAILY ACTIONS

Industry

Recycle Everything I Can

Recycling; Recycled Metals; Recycled Plastics

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will research and recycle all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community, including electronics and metals.

    Here's how I've been recycling. I use a reusable Lucky bag to put my recycling in and take it out daily. Some days I have to do more trips. Also I'm not using garbage bags which cannot be recycled.

    I've been preparing meals over the duration of this challenge by cooking at one time and placing meals in reusable tuberware. Less electricity wasted and less food wasted.

    Went on a walk right after class. The mixture of green foliage is pleasing to the eye.

    The other night it was raining, so I went for a walk in the rain. I don't usually get to do this. Luckily, the path stays clean of dirt.

  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Food, Agriculture, and Land Use
    An average American throws out about 240 lbs of food per year. The average family of four spends $1,500 a year on food that they throw out. Where would you rather use this money?

    I'd rather put this money into getting solar panels installed. It's just a smart financial idea.

    I often go walking behind the social studies building, and I have found that this area in particular is usually where wild turkeys live.

    I forgot to mention that on 10/25/25, I attended a beach cleanup in Seaside. A lot of walking that day. Worth it.

    I went to recycle and found the Prom A dumpsters have been trashed, literally. Trash and recycling are littered all across the ground with empty dumpsters saw my own recycling from the other day on the ground there.

    Walked through the forest behind the Social Studies building. Used to do this all the time when bird watching for an assignment for Dr. Kelly
