  • Rearrange your fridge!  Put your veggies and fruit in the door and front shelves, and your condiments in the drawers. 

  • Why?  Food waste accounts for 8-10% of all greenhouse gas emissions, and half of that is from households. By making your fruit and veggies more visible, we can keep better tabs on what we're buying and using and cut down on food waste.

  • Impact? Cutting your food waste can reduce your carbon footprint by up to 300 kilograms of CO2 equivalent per year!
