Hungry? There’s Plenty in the Bin.

February 25, 2010

Rotting, stinking, smelling rat infested bins. Why on earth would we want to talk about them?

Whilst the green revolution attempts to curb producers impacts on the environment by producing all these amazing “green” products (a section which we are reviewing with much excitement), it is our responsibility to purchase a. the right products, and b. the right amount to reduce the amount of literal crap we produce.

Every wondered about that old capsicum you tossed out because it went mouldy? Or that tuna in the can you didn’t get around to finishing?

Now multiply you by the number of people in the street. Multiply that by the number of streets in your block. Now by the number of blocks in your suburb. That by the number of suburbs in your council… You get the picture.

We are throwing out millions of tonnes of food wastage every week – yet do we take any action to reduce it?

Everyone seems very content to reduce the number of times they got into the car when the climate change phenomenon was at it’s peak. Perhaps considering reducing the amount you throw out could also be beneficial.

Surprisingly, there are a number of additional benefits you get from reducing what you throw out. It mainly centres around what you shell out from your pocket to fill your fridge. That’s right – waste less, spend less.

That’s where mealopedia.com plays an important role for the community (and for our landfills). We help consolidate the ingredients you need into a helpful list, to save you money, and the tip a little extra room.
