50% Reduction in Food Waste by 2030: Federal, State and Local Solutions. Madeline Keating, City Strategist, Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC). CO
The United States 2030 Food Loss and Waste Reduction Goal seeks to cut food loss and waste in half by 2030. With 8 years to go, what is happening across the country to achieve this goal? While measuring food waste reduction nationally is still a big challenge, municipalities, states, and the federal government are taking action to reduce food waste both at the policy and programmatic levels. Kick-off this year’s WasteExpo Food Recovery Forum by getting a high-level overview of solutions and actions on the 50% reduction goal across sectors and geographies.
