How to tackle food waste:
Did you know that Americans waste about 31 percent of edible foods? This is enough food waste to fill the Rose Bowl stadium of 90,000 seats every day. Most of this food ends up in landfills which contributes to greenhouse gas emissions and affects climate change. The issue is beyond just America. It occurs worldwide with over two billion tons of food wasted globally per year. That’s enough to feed almost two billion people! In the words of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics…It’s time to “feed people, not landfills!”
The extra perks!
Not only will reducing food waste help limit certain environmental changes, but it saves you money and helps your local community. Purchasing the exact amount of food that you will eat helps you save because you are most likely purchasing less food than normal (that means no impulse purchases and less eating out!). Learning where you can donate safe, edible foods that would otherwise be wasted helps feed food-insecure areas of your community. These areas consist of households that are unable to feed each person enough food to be healthy (learn more about food insecurity here). The Feeding America program fights food insecurity by donating 4.3 billion meals around the U.S. per year. Many other food donation organizations also help get these donated items to food deserts around the world.
The best ways to reduce waste:
Some easy ways to reduce food waste involve a variety of lifestyle habits such as grocery shopping, food prep and production, food storage, and dining out. But these changes to reduce food waste require both individuals and corporations to take action. This food waste short video takes a quick look at some of the changes you can make at home to have an impact on food waste.

▬▬ A GUIDE FOR YOUR 20s ▬▬
As with most companies, the idea started with a problem. After searching online for common questions people have in their 20s, we were surprised by the inability to find free quality answers. Writers were posting guidance for young adults without having any experience or degree in the topic. Websites were hard to navigate. Even the highest quality content lacked actionable steps, leading to a ‘what next?’ feeling. If there was a perfect solution, it always had a price tag. Not worth it.
So, we created ‘A Guide for Your 20s’. Slowly, the platform gained professional writers who could offer REAL professional guidance to young adults and provide valuable lessons everyone should learn. Together, we aim to make life easier, happier, and healthier for young adults through simple, actionable articles and short life lesson videos. We’re positioned as a digital guide to help young adults get through life in their 20s. We have Shorter Version summaries in each article (for those that are busy) and Longer Versions (for those that enjoy the details). Each article includes actionable steps to help drive change in your life. Professionals and experts from around the world write articles on the platform.

So, why professionals and experts? We want you to feel confident that this online resource for young adults is filled with valuable information. Articles are written by someone who has professional experience in the topic. We classify a professional as someone with a degree and 5+ years of experience or 10+ years of experience in the topic. Why do we require this? There’s a great book by Malcolm Gladwell about this – essentially 10,000 hours is the key to success in a field (1 year = 2,000 hours. 5 years = 10,000 hours). Information about the author is included at the end of their posts, so you can see for yourself.
