Check one or more of the following actions:

I pledge to shop responsibly

Resist the temptation to hoard groceries, especially fresh foods that can spoil. Choose shelf-stable foods like canned goods, pasta, rice and legumes.

I pledge to plan meals and save leftovers

Check expiration dates to use foods before they go bad. Plan meals that provide leftovers for lunches and second meals.

I pledge to use my green bin

If your community has a green bin program, make sure you don’t place organic waste in your trash that can be collected and diverted from the landfill.

I pledge to try composting

Home composting can turn your food scraps into fertile soil that boosts the productivity of gardens and landscapes.

I pledge to use my garbage disposal more frequently

With even moderate use, garbage disposals are proven to reduce the amount of food waste in your trash by up to 30%.
