EPA Updates Food Waste Resource Site
The U.S. E.P.A. recently released updates to its Food Waste Web Site. This site is one of the very best places to learn about issues related to food waste causes and management actions — and now it’s even better.
The new changes include:
- revisions to the food waste recovery hierarchy to clarify the placement of Anaerobic Digesters (they live in the composting tier of the hierarchy),
- additional resources and links
- clarification on Good Samaritan Laws about food waste donation.
I recommend this site as a regular stop for foodservice operators, foodservice consultants, and other industry participants. If you have never been, or haven’t seen the new updates, make a point to visit!
