In the decomposition process, these food wastes emit methane, a greenhouse gas that could trap heat 25 times more than carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, thereby they contribute around\u00a08%-10% of the greenhouse gas emissions, fueling climate change, according to the World Resources Institute.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-utx6q106\" class=\"xVISr Y9Dpf bCMSCT OZy-3 lnyWN yMZv8w bCMSCT public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 fixed-tab-size public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"B2EFF public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">A\u00a0study by the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC)\u00a0revealed that an average American family spends about $1,800 annually on food that would eventually turn out as waste.

Plan Your Meals<\/span><\/h3>\n<p id=\"viewer-kdq1l122\" class=\"xVISr Y9Dpf bCMSCT OZy-3 lnyWN yMZv8w bCMSCT public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 fixed-tab-size public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"B2EFF public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">A little planning goes a long way. Sit down with your family at the beginning of each week to plan meals and create a shopping list for the coming week.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-g3b3r124\" class=\"xVISr Y9Dpf bCMSCT OZy-3 lnyWN yMZv8w bCMSCT public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 fixed-tab-size public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"B2EFF public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">This would ensure you only buy what you need.

It means no leftover and unused groceries that would just go to waste because they are no longer usable. However, take note that not all &#8220;old&#8221; food is completely unusable.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"viewer-wthii130\" class=\"DjYhe Y9Dpf OZy-3 lnyWN yMZv8w bCMSCT public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 fixed-tab-size public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"B2EFF public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">4.)

Saved leftovers may be creatively used in new meals or as food composts to fertilize your own garden.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-4w0fq152\" class=\"xVISr Y9Dpf bCMSCT OZy-3 lnyWN yMZv8w bCMSCT public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 fixed-tab-size public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"B2EFF public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">This definitely would not only save you a few bucks but would contribute to a healthier planet.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"viewer-wjq9l154\" class=\"DjYhe Y9Dpf OZy-3 lnyWN yMZv8w bCMSCT public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 fixed-tab-size public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"B2EFF public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">8.) Opt for Sustainable Packaging<\/span><\/h3>\n<p id=\"viewer-82k34156\" class=\"xVISr Y9Dpf bCMSCT OZy-3 lnyWN yMZv8w bCMSCT public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 fixed-tab-size public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"B2EFF public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">When out shopping or buying groceries, choose products with eco-friendly packaging. By purchasing items with recyclable packaging, you help promote minimal waste.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-tbppb158\" class=\"xVISr Y9Dpf bCMSCT OZy-3 lnyWN yMZv8w bCMSCT public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 fixed-tab-size public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"B2EFF public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">While doing so, explain to your children why this choice matters. Educate them on how small little things like this can help save the environment.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"viewer-vzhia160\" class=\"DjYhe Y9Dpf OZy-3 lnyWN yMZv8w bCMSCT public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 fixed-tab-size public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"B2EFF public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">9.)

Beans, lentils, and tofu are not only cost-effective but also healthier alternatives to animal protein. They also have a lower environmental impact compared to products made from animal sources.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"viewer-l5nax164\" class=\"DjYhe Y9Dpf OZy-3 lnyWN yMZv8w bCMSCT public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 fixed-tab-size public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"B2EFF public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">10.) Buy Seasonal Produce<\/span><\/h3>\n<p id=\"viewer-m2eza166\" class=\"xVISr Y9Dpf bCMSCT OZy-3 lnyWN yMZv8w bCMSCT public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 fixed-tab-size public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"B2EFF public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">Keep track of what&#8217;s in season at various times of the year, and prepare your meal list and shopping list by taking advantage of these seasonal items. According to the theory of market and demand, products cost when there is an abundance of stocks. Hence, buying fruits and vegetables in season would definitely help you save money. At the same time, you support local farmers and producers, contributing to less wastage of their products.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"viewer-c1pxi168\" class=\"DjYhe Y9Dpf OZy-3 lnyWN yMZv8w bCMSCT public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 fixed-tab-size public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"B2EFF public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">11.)
