What We Can Do to Reduce Food Waste:
CA Food Waste Reduction Laws
Wednesday, March 2nd from 7:00 – 8:00 pm
 CAC is co-sponsoring a Zoom presentation with Maggy Gainer & Julie Neander on March 2nd at 7 PM  (see details  below)
 

A special webinar presentation with Julie Neander and Maggie Gainer entitled “What We Can Do to Reduce Food Waste: CA Food Waste Reduction Laws”– followed by a Q&A.

The impetus behind this presentation is SB 1383 which became effective in January, 2022. Various sections of SB 1383 or California’s Short-Lived Pollutant Reduction Law aim to reduce the production of short- lived but very potent greenhouse gasses, such as methane from landfills, and seek to address food insecurity issues in the state.

Julie Neander, a long time HUUF member, has recently retired from Environmental Services with the City of Arcata. Maggie Gainer is a co-founder of and consultant/trainer for Zero Waste Humboldt. Both have considerable experience working on local and state issues of waste reduction and resource sustainability.

This event is co-sponsored by ZWH, 350 Humboldt, NEC,  Temple Beth El and the Earth Care Committee of the Arcata Presbyterian Church
