This flyer covers What is food waste, why it is important, how much do I waste, and the following 4 two-minute solutions: • Make large batches of food, then freeze leftovers; • Pack lunches using dinner leftovers; • Meal plan around ingredients you already have; • Understand how and where to store your food.

NRDC Co-Branded Tips to Fight Food Waste

This flyer lists five tips to fight food waste, which are as follows: 1. SKETCH OUT A PLAN Plan two or three meals before shopping and use a list when at the store. Plan to eat the most perishable items early in the week and consider recipes that use ingredients you might have left over. Then plan in a couple of "lazy nights" for the week to order out, dine with friends, or use what's in your freezer. 2. STORE FOOD SMARTLY Prep produce for next couple days as soon as you bring it home, for easy use during the week. Use airtight containers for most foods. Additional storage advice for over 85 foods can be found at www.savethefood.com. 3. USE IT UP Designate a night of the week to use up what's in your fridge. Fridge Fridays, anyone? 4.FREEZE,FREEZE,FREEZE Freezing food is like pushing the pause button and almost anything can be frozen-bread (best sliced), milk (shake when thawed), eggs (raw but scrambled), and cheese (shredded and used for cooking). And don't forget to freeze leftovers, even if just for a few days. 5. UNDERSTAND EXPIRATION DATES "Use by," "Best by," "Enjoy by" -these are generally not expiration dates at all, but merely suggestions as to when the product is at its freshest. Take them with a grain of salt and use your nose, sight and judgement to determine when food has really expired*. *Note: Deli meats, unpasteurized dairy products and ready-to-eat sandwiches are products where heeding the date is recommended.

NRDC Co-Branded Tips to Fight Food Waste - Spanish

CONSEJOS PARA COMBATIR EL DESPERDICIO DE ALIMENTOS: 1. BOSQUEJE UN PLAN Planifique dos o tres comidas antes de hacer las compras y use una lista cuando este en la tienda de comestibles. Planee comer los comestibles mas perecederos al comienzo de la semana y tenga en cuenta las recetas que usen como ingredientes la comida que le haya sobrado. Luego planifique un par de "noches de descanso" en la semana para ordenar comida, cenar con amigos o usar lo que tenga en su congelador. 2. ALMACENE LOS ALIMENTOS DE MANERA INTELIGENTE Prepare los alimentos frescos en los pr6ximos dos dias tan pronto como los lleve a casa, para que sean faciles de usar durante la semana. Utilice recipientes hermeticos para la mayoria de los alimentos. Puede encontrar consejos de almacenamiento adicionales para mas de 85 alimentos en la pagina www.savethefood.com. 3. USELO TODO Elija una noche a la semana para usar todo lo que tenga en su refrigerador. i.Les parece bien viernes de refrigerador? 4. CONGELE, CONGELE, CONGELE El congelar los alimentos es como presionar el bot6n de pausa y casi todo puede congelarse - el pan (es mejor si esta cortado en rodajas), la leche (agitela cuando se este descongelando), los huevos (crudos pero revueltos) y el queso (rallado para cocinar). Y no se olvide de congelar las sobras de comidas, aun si es por unos cuantos dias. S. ENTIENDA LAS FECHAS DE VENCIMIENTO "Uselo antes de", "Es mejor antes de", "Disfrutelo antes de" -estos no indican fechas de vencimiento generalmente, sino que son simplemente sugerencias de hasta cuando el producto esta en su mejor estado. T6melos con un grano de sal y use la nariz, la vista y use su propio juicio para determinar si el alimento esta realmente vencido *. *Nota: Las carnes frias, los productos lacteos sin pasteurizar y los sandwiches listos para comer son productos en los que se recomienda prestar atenci6n a la fecha.

NRDC Co-Branded 10 Easy Tips for Meal Planning

This flyer describes 10 easy tips to help reduce waste when meal planning. 40% of food in the U.S. is never eaten. Meal planning helps reduce wasted food and also saves time, stress, and money. Even better, it usually leads to healthier eating. Here are the 10 easy tips: 1. DON'T START FROM SCRATCH Meal planning doesn't have to mean hours spent with a cookbook. Start with your go-to meals. Repeat them every week or two. Then try something new. 2. CHECK THE REFRIGERATOR Next week's meals get their start in the fridge. See what needs to be used up and then think of a meal to make with those items. Check your pantry for the rest of the ingredients and add missing pieces to the shopping list. 3. USE PORTION PLANNERS Portion calculators can help you feed a big group, but they can offer insight into daily cooking too. 4. HAVE KITCHEN ESSENTIALS HANDY Having two or three grains, cooking fundamentals, key spices, and "hero" sauces like barbecue and peanut sauce can use up odds and ends in the fridge and bring new life to old meals. 5. USE BUILDING BLOCKS Pick two types of protein, one or two grains, and a veggie medley to make at the beginning of the week and then incorporate into different meals. A saute of broccoli and peppers can be used as a side one night, spooned onto enchiladas another night, and worked into a soup or meatloaf later in the week. 6. THINK DOUBLE DUTY Planning a Tuesday taco night? Think about other ways to use the extra tortillas. Ingredients sometimes come in larger portions than we need. If you plan a second meal around them, it's easier to avoid overload. 7. SCHEDULE A LAZY NIGHT The truth is we don't always have the time or energy to cook every night. Plan a few lazy nights that don't require cooking and take the opportunity to order takeout or dine with friends. 8. GO FRESH FIRST To preserve freshness and nutrition, use perishables like seafood and meat earlier in the week and save pasta, dairy, and omelets for later in the week. Some greens like kale, will stay fresh longer than others. 9. LEAN ON FROZEN INGREDIENTS Frozen foods have nearly all of the nutrients (and sometimes more) as their fresh counterparts. And they don't go bad. 10. COOK AND FREEZE Soups, stews, casseroles, and lasagnas can all be made in large batches and then frozen and defrosted when you need a quick dinner. To keep it easy, freeze the portion sizes you'll want to defrost.

NRDC Co-Branded Deciphering Dates on Products

This flyer describes how to decipher dates on products and has one image of a glass milk jug with a "sell by" date printed on the front. Here is the flyer content: Food date labels have little to do with safety and are only loosely related to quality. Many foods will still be good to eat well after those dates. Here's how to sort out just what those dates mean: BEST IF USED BY/ BEST BEFORE These dates refer to peak quality or freshness. They do not mean the food is spoiled or unsafe. Food with these dates should be safe to eat after the date has passed. SELL BY Ignore these dates as they are meant for store staff. They actually build in quality so that if the food is sold by that date, you will have top quality shelf life once it's home. FREEZE BY One way to extend the life of food beyond its date is to freeze it. It's like pushing the pause button on your food. BEWARE THE DANGER ZONE The main criterion for evaluating food safety is the amount of time food spends in the temperature "danger zone" (40 -120 ° F). Food left in a hot car for too long could be unsafe even before the date on the package. Also, be sure your fridge is kept below 40 °F. USE YOUR EYES AND NOSE For the most part, you can trust your senses to know when food has gone bad. The products to be careful with are those that pregnant women are told to avoid.

Soak wilted vegetables in ice water for 5-10 minutes to re-crisp. 5. Adjust levers on crisper drawers to change humidity levels. Set one to high (closed - less air coming in) and one to low (open - more air coming air).

This 1MB flyer has a diagram of a refrigerator and tips to help your food stay fresh the longest. Here are the tips: 1. TEMPERATURE 40°F or below to help food last longer. 2. HUMIDITY DRAWERS The levers on crisper drawers change humidity. Set one to high and one to low. 3. THE UPPER SHELVES Warmer. Store leftovers and drinks. 4. DOOR Warmest! No milk or eggs here, best for butter, condiments, and drinks. 5. HIGH-HUMIDITY Most veggies, especially those that wilt. 6. LOW-HUMIDITY Fruits, along with veggies that may break down and rot. 7. LOWER SHELF Meats and fish are better off at the bottom-it's usually the coldest and reduces risk of contamination.

2024 Albuquerque MSA Priority Climate Action Plan

This PDF is 3.2 Mb and details the priority actions for the Albuquerque Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA), which were formed as the first deliverable under the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Climate Pollution Reduction Planning Grant.

2024.06_Equity-Focused Citywide Composting Overview

This two-page, 0.6MB PDF provides an overview of the draft composting program. The first page is a graphic showing the process of collecting food scraps in a bucket, taking the bucket to a local green hub once or twice a week to dump the bucket contents, and then a hauler picks up the items and takes them to a local composting facility to be transformed into compost that can be used on local soils to help grow food and other plants. The second page is more text-heavy and detailed with the following text: MISSION: To revolutionize waste management in Albuquerque by transforming food waste from a problem into a sustainable solution. By working together as a community, we can create a more environmentally friendly and resilient city for generations to come. WHY COMPOST? Food waste decomposes in landfills, producing methane, a potent greenhouse gas. The remaining decomposed material is no longer able to be reused or recycled. Diverting food waste from landfills to composting facilities prevents methane emissions, keeps more of the carbon in the compost, and unlocks nutrients that can be used for plants and creating healthy soils. IMPORTANCE OF EQUITY: Equity is central to environmental justice, ensuring that all communities, regardless of race, income, or social status, have fair access to clean air, water, and land. Environmental injustices, such as the disproportionate siting of landfills and polluting industries in low-income and minority neighborhoods, perpetuate inequalities and exacerbate health disparities. EQUITY IN CITYWIDE COMPOSTING: Ensuring access for frontline communities. This includes site selection, materials, and other possible barriers. PHASE 1: The pilot program will start with five strategically selected sites at community centers: Barelas, WestGate, Heights, Cesar Chavez, and West Mesa and the ABQ BioPark. PHASE 2: Expand sites across the city. How does the program work? A three-step plan to ensure that composting is easy and convenient for every resident: 1. JOIN THE MOVEMENT: Sign up for the program to receive a comprehensive starter kit, including a food waste collection bucket and educational materials on reducing food waste at home. 2. BRING FOOD SCRAPS TO A DROP-OFF LOCATION: Across the city, we’ve established convenient drop-off sites where you can deposit your food scraps. Whether it’s your neighborhood community center or the beautiful Albuquerque BioPark, you’ll find a drop-off location near you. 3. LET US HANDLE THE REST: Once you’ve dropped off your food waste, a hauler will take care of the rest. They’ll transport it to a professional compost facility, where it will undergo transformation into nutrient-rich compost for use in local parks, gardens, and urban agriculture projects. Your feedback is critical to shaping the final program and ensuring that it is successful and long-lasting. Please support the program by completing a survey, to show that our city cares about composting and to get your voice heard. The survey can be accessed via www.cabq.gov/compost. Imagine a future where composting is as commonplace as recycling – together, we can make this vision a reality for Albuquerque.
