Guest: Jack Froese, Chair of National Zero Waste Council

Canada has a real problem with food waste and we're all responsible. According to Second Harvest, 58 per cent of all food produced in Canada — the equivalent of 35.5 million tonnes — is lost or wasted every year. That comes out to $31 billion at the food production and consumer level. The cost of all this waste is obvious financially, but there is a huge cost environmentally too. How can Canadians and companies change their habits and processes to be less wasteful? We get into the tips and tricks of how to reduce food waste and save your money at the same time.
