#Recyclable, #biodegradable, #compostable to name a few. You've seen the labels, but what do they really mean + are any of them actually doing more good than harm? We find out the best, the worst + the most environmentally sound way to dispose of each. https://t.co/Us2mUXoTRr

FIVE YEAR UPDATE π Since its conception in 2017, our preserving program has saved a whopping 30 tonne of food from landfill or rotting on the ground. That's a whole lotta yummy preserves transforming food from going to waste. Thanks to all who've donated and volunteered.

Historically, #sustainable living has been the goal of the #ecoconscious movement, but with #climatechange affecting our daily lives & the planet rapidly heating, its no longer enough. That's why we've embraced a new approach - you can learn all about it; https://t.co/HkklgcQ1FO

We've just spent 2 weeks in #TimorLeste checking in on the local #foodpreservation & #regenerativeagriculture hubs, reconnecting face-to-face with local teams & workshopping the next few years. Read all about the trip & see just how far the hubs have come. https://t.co/oON2pbDNfi

An underrated but powerful way to fight hunger is to cut food loss & waste. Food loss alone, occurring after harvest and before retail, is worth $400 billion yearly. If we cut FLW by half, there'd be enough supply of fruits and veggies to meet the needs of a world population.

33% of all food produced globally is lost or wasted every year. On this international @_StopFoodWaste_ Day, see how initiatives we support like @permaguidebook and @cornerstoreCSN are taking practical steps to tackle food waste and improve food sovereignty.

Anyway, we'd love to know how you'll compensate us. In non-covid times we travel regularly to Timor, & the new @Qantas service was exciting. But we will probably stick to @AirnorthAUS after this as we're staring down the barrel of a wasted trip, after 2 difficult years for all.

So not only do we not have the basics like clothes, toiletries & preventative measures against dengue, we now have nothing for any of our work & training. Your staff were incredibly helpful & apologetic, even though it isn't their fault.
