Waste Not | The Perennial Plate

[ad_1]

[ad_2]

With approximately 40% of US food being wasted ever year, and only 5% of that waste being recycled, there is a lot of room for positive change. This short film highlights a Colorado energy company’s attempts to turn that waste into energy by collecting from grocery stores, restaurants and dairy farms. We followed along on garbage trucks in zero-waste focused Boulder and behind the scenes at a bio digester and composting site.
