The Waste Not Want Not Wednesday link-up party is inspired by World Food Day (Oct. 16), and recent articles such as this one that show between 40-51% of food in Canada and America ends up in the garbage. Over-consumption, lack of knowledge, low cost and over purchasing are common causes of food waste in North America. This unsustainable over-consumption extends to so many aspects of our lives.
So perhaps if we all share our tips for consuming a little less stuff in general, cooking more responsibly and frugally, and living eco-friendly, we can each take a small part in making our world a little more sustainable.
And besides, who couldn't save a little bit of $$$ anyway?

Thanks for highlighting my chocolate article from last week. This week I’m sharing the inspiring story of Russ Crandall, who has a rare autoimmune disease that causes inflammation and thickening of his arteries. He had a stroke at age 24 and open heart surgery at age 26, but his health didn’t start to improve until he switched to the Paleo Diet. I continue to be amazed at the power of food. Have a beautiful week!
ReplyDeleteHi Danielle! This week I shared grilled orange-rosemary glazed acorn squash. A satisfying side dish that you can grill along with your main dish and that won't heat up the house. Thanks for hosting!
ReplyDeleteDang, those grain-free bagels looks so good. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting! I'm sharing a link to Chickpea Tahini Coleslaw, a light yet filling salad for summertime.
