Local governments are well-positioned to address our nation’s food waste problem, in large part because they are responsible for managing municipal solid waste and addressing food insecurity in their communities. However, designing, adopting, and implementing policies to meet food waste reduction targets can be a daunting and resource-intensive task. In this webinar, the Environmental Law Institute and other experts will share how new tools can help local governments adopt and implement policies to reduce food waste and greenhouse gas emissions.
