One Country's Table Scraps

Going green has never been more in vogue. Whether it's concern over climate change or an affinity for organic, pesticide-free products, many people are eating up the now trendy socio-political movement with a recyclable spoon.

A good way to be green is to avoid food waste, kitchen waste, garbage...call it what you will, it is any form of waste derived from food materials. It typically consists of peelings, scraps, excess or spoiled prepared food, and other discards from domestic or commercial kitchens. And it's a huge problem, as enough food is thrown away to feed the world.

This week, a look at food waste.

TTFN, Fred.
