VIDEO. City of Half Moon Bay’s Sustainability team presents their Earth Year June sustainability challenge to fight food waste.
Did You Know?
Did you know that around 40% of all food in the United States is wasted?
Food waste is a contributor to climate change because when food is wasted, we are also wasting ALL of the water, energy, and resources that went into growing, transporting, and selling that food!
That’s why this June, we’re focusing on how you can fight food waste and help save our precious resources and even save money!

Our friends at Stop Food Waste have put together a lot of really great information on how to fight food waste at home. Check our their website for tips, tricks and recipes to get the most out of your groceries. Their ten-minute fridge reality check is a great way to get started!
