DESCRIPTION:EARTHDAY‍.ORG invites you to join another installment of our Earth Day 
 Live series on food waste and loss, and developing responsible practices. 
 \n\nThursday, January 14th at 9 AM PT (noon ET).\n\nRSVP for Zoom: 
 https://www.earthday.org/earth-day-live-we-throw-it-all-away-2/\n\nFB 
 livestream here: https://www.facebook.com/EarthDayNetwork\n\nGlobal food 
 waste is a far-reaching problem. Approximately 1.3 billion tons of food 
 each year are wasted globally — that’s one-third of all food produced. 
 In the United States alone, about 40% of food goes to waste annually. 
 \n\nWith close to 900 million people starving worldwide, we cannot afford 
 to lose that much of production. We need to start thinking about new and 
 innovative approaches to address food waste and loss.  \n\nWe will also be 
 discussing upcycling as it represents a variety of processes by which 
 “old” products get to be modified and get a second life as they’re 
 turned into a “new” product. In this way, thanks to the mix and 
 aggregation of used materials, components and items, the end result is a 
 “new product” with more value than the original value of the sum of all 
 its components.\n\nThe panel will be 90 minutes and hosted over Zoom. By 
 registering and joining the live event, you’ll be able to ask questions 
 during the Q&A. If you can’t connect over Zoom, we’ll also be streaming 
 the event over Facebook.\n\nOur panelists include:\n\n--Dr. Sweta 
 Chakraborty — Risk and Behavioral Scientist\n--Justine Kamine — 
 Co-Founder and Partner, KDC.Earth\n--Sam Kass — Former Executive Chef at 
 the White House \n--Jillian Semaan — Director of Food and Environment, 
 EARTHDAY‍.ORG \n--Caue Suplicy — Founder, Barnana\n--Ann Veneman — 
 Former U.S. Secretary of Agriculture\n\n
