This is the second in a series of webinars about organic and food waste, and how these are managed within the waste hierarchy. The purpose of the webinar series is to provide real world application of the waste hierarchy in action. Each session will focus on increasing the understanding of what that level means in reality when dealing with organic and food waste, how actions taken at each level contribute and why they are important.
The waste hierarchy is a framework prioritising strategies from most preferred (prevention) to least preferred (disposal) options for waste management. Efforts made at the top of the hierarchy avoid the extraction of valuable resources, keep valuable resources in use and prevent valuable resources from going to landfill.
Our second webinar will focuses on organic and food waste initiatives at Level 2 - Reuse, Repair, Repurpose which in the context of food surplus or waste means finding ways to redirect that resource into other areas (such as through redistributing surplus food) or creating new or different food products (for both human and or animal consumption).
Join us in this session to hear from three different experts on how actions to Reuse, Repair or Repurpose make a difference in tackling food and organic waste in New Zealand.
