The United Nations estimates 30 percent of global food production is wasted. This squanders resources and labor, and in landfills, food generates methane, a potent greenhouse gas.

Lesly Baesens, Food Waste Recovery Program Administrator for the City and County of Denver, offers practical tips to reduce household food waste. Her strategies not only lower your carbon footprint but also save time and money. Lesly ensures food is eaten, redistributed, or composted, rather than ending up in landfills.

National Australia Bank (NAB) has announced it will no longer fund thermal coal mines. This significant decision places NAB among a growing global list of banks divesting from fossil fuels, recognizing their unsustainable future.

This shift reflects a broader understanding that dirty fossil fuels have no long-term viability. Now, let's encourage ANZ and Westpac to follow NAB's lead and make similar vital commitments.

After organizing for fossil fuel divestment and environmental justice at Stanford, Charlie Jiang co-founded the DC ReInvest Coalition in Washington, DC. This coalition, part of the global #DefundPipelines movement, pressures the DC government to divest from banks linked to fossil fuel pipelines, private prisons, and predatory lending practices.

Instead, the Coalition advocates for reinvesting District funds into community-led solutions for DC's most under-resourced residents. Jiang provides strategic and narrative direction, helping organize advocacy efforts against fossil fuel extraction's environmental and community damage, including past support for the #NoDAPL movement.
