Reducing food waste is good for your budget and the planet
Briefly

We waste over a billion tons of food annually, costing American families $1,200 each and contributing significantly to greenhouse gas emissions, particularly methane.
Food waste in the U.S. equals greenhouse gas emissions from over 50 million cars and accounts for 58% of methane emissions from landfills.
Food decomposes in landfills without oxygen, leading to methane release, significantly contributing to greenhouse gas emissions and climate change.
Composting and using apps like Too Good To Go can effectively reduce food waste at home, turning leftovers into useful products.
