This week's podcast guest is Julia Kraemer from the Leftovers Foundation, a Canadian non-profit on a vital mission to reduce food waste and enhance food access.

The foundation rescues perfectly edible food destined for landfills, thereby preventing greenhouse gas emissions and delivering this food to those in need through the work of dedicated volunteers.

Julia sheds light on the critical issues of food security and insecurity, revealing that nearly 9 million Canadians face some level of food insecurity, driven by income inequality and lack of access. Astonishingly, one-third of the food wasted in Canada could feed every Canadian experiencing hunger. Julia's insights and the impactful work of Leftovers offer valuable lessons on a global issue.

She also helps us understand the environmental impact of food waste. Food rotting in landfills produces methane 25 times as potent as CO2 at trapping heat in the atmosphere. If global food waste was a country, it would be the third greatest greenhouse gas emitter in the world!
We learned so much from Julia about these important issues and how organizations like Leftovers are doing amazing work to help bridge the gap. You can learn more about Leftovers and the important work they do on their website and social media accounts (links below).

Big big thanks to Julia and the Leftovers Foundation for being our guest and sharing these important messages.
