Food waste at home and what to do about it!

What can we do at home to prevent food waste as good as possible?

• Make a week menu in which you measure how much food you actually need and keep one day free for if there’s any left at the end of the week. So, you can eat the leftovers then. (Later we will discuss different recipes with leftovers)
• Keep animals that eat the leftovers we can’t really eat
• Chickens eat nearly everything
• Some parts of vegetables you can also feed your rabbit, Guinee pig, hamster, …
• Keep a compost waste bin More...

For my diner, there was cropland used for the lettuce, wheat, dairy and meat on the pizza.

There was no fish on my pizza, so it didn't need any fisheries.

The pizza was in a carboard box, so it needed the forest.

I bought it in a store, so there was Built-up land used.

For the carbon footprint, the ingredients where transported and there was a production of plastic.

My meal has a medium Ecological footprint because, you can make it at home with your own grown vegetables.
