Why Addressing Wasted Food in New Hampshire Matters:
In 2020, NHDES reported that approximately 165,000 tons of wasted food were disposed of by the state’s residents, businesses, and institutions, comprising 24% of the total solid waste stream (source: BioCycle). Instead of contributing to landfill waste and greenhouse gas emissions, this food can, however, be redirected for higher purposes, which CET will discuss in detail.
The substance of CET’s presentation will be relevant to New Hampshire’s Food Waste Ban, which will go into effect on February 1, 2025. Specifically, the ban will apply to entities (businesses, institutions, schools, etc.) that produce one ton of wasted food per week or more and are located within 20 miles of a facility with the capacity and authorization to manage wasted food.
Don’t miss this opportunity to learn how to reduce wasted food and unlock environmental, social, and financial benefits for your business or organization.
We look forward to your participation!
