IF YOU CAN’T REUSE IT, REFUSE IT.

On EcoRadio KC, host Terri Wilke will speak with Matt Riggs, Planner II in the Solid Waste Management Dept. at Mid America Regional Council (MARC).

Food loss and waste hurts us all. Our community, economy and the environment all suffer as over 30 percent of all food in the United States goes to waste every year. The goal of MARC’s food loss and waste (FLW) workshop series is to develop strategic action steps necessary to move the Kansas City region forward on FLW reduction. These action steps will form the core of a regional Food Waste Action Plan. Because of the role your business or organization plays in the region’s food system, MARC needs your voice at the table. Terri and Matt will tell listeners all the details.

The KC Foodwise Project addresses food waste and sustainable food systems in KC Metro area.  There are many great opportunities for you to help build a sustainable food system in the Kansas City region. We will provide the latest news, event listings, and volunteer and job opportunities right here.

EcoRadio KC is glad to encourage awareness and protection of our world.  Our goal is to ensure our listeners are aware of how we can create a sustainable present for a sustainable future! This will be a great radio hour!

We support the work for a future in which humans flourish as members of a thriving ecosphere. We are all in this together and it will take all of us to make the world safe for human habitation for millennia to come.

This will be a great radio hour!
