Zakaj So Ti Filmarji šest Mesecev Jedli Le Smeti

V novem dokumentarcu "Just Eat It" filmska ustvarjalca Grant Baldwin in Jenny Rustemeyer za šest mesecev prisegata na nakupovanje živil in jesta samo hrano, ki bi jo sicer zavrgli.

Potem ko sta izvedela, da se v Severni Ameriki vsako leto zavrže skoraj 50 odstotkov pridelane hrane , sta se filmska ustvarjalca Grant Baldwin in Jenny Rustemeyer odločila, da ne bosta več kupovala živil in jedla samo tisto hrano, ki bi jo sicer zavrgli. Raziskovanje para o potratnosti industrijskega živilskega sistema – in njune izkušnje s potapljanjem v smetiščih za ohranjanje življenja – je dokumentirano v njunem filmu Just Eat It.

Skoraj 50 odstotkov hrane, pridelane v naši družbi, zavržemo.

Statistični podatki o zavrženi hrani, izpostavljeni v filmu, so osupljivi. Povežite to z nadrealističnimi podobami, kot je Baldwin, ki do kolen stoji v smetnjaku, polnem humusa, in morda se boste vprašali, koliko vaša osebna dejanja prispevajo k tej navadi ogromnega zapravljanja odpadkov.

Želite vedeti, ali ste del težave? Baldwin in Rustemeyer sta ustvarila kviz, ki vam pomaga razumeti, koliko hrane zavržete , in vas usmeri k načinom, kako zavreči manj.

The food waste issue is huge, and one way to reduce it is to buy your food from the growers directly, through farmer's markets, roadside farm stalls, and delivery through Community Supported Agriculture. Spray free or certified organic, and buy from your local cooperative food market for other items. The coop I belonged to in Portland allowed volunteers access to their out of date food kept in the coolers: for every 2 hours you worked, you could visit the produce or dairy cooler and take what you needed. Perfect.

I have dumpter dived and it's wonderful! In NYC that was how many of us survived living in an expensive city :) In DC many of the stores donate their leftovers to shelters and programs. Yay! A step in the right direction, grateful!
