You're in Ottawa. Go on. Geek out.
Join us as we root through the complicated attitudes, perceptions, and actions making up our food waste ecosystem
What is food waste? Food is a universal part of human existence; we all consume food for nourishment. It is the centre-piece of parties, and momentous life-events. Food issues, however, are rife. How we eat our food, and how we dispose of leftovers, have ramifications across the food life-cycle. Who is responsible for food waste? Is it individuals, or bigger entities? Is waste even seen as an issue, given that, partly defined, waste is not something useful? The tour starts at a generic grocery store, where most Ottawans go to to get their food. Here, we look at the big-picture food waste trends. We then make our way to various bakeries and restaurants to look at Ottawa-specific issues related to food waste. Finally, we delve into waste-free concepts and specific companies that offer some possible solutions and show that alternatives are possible.

Following some potential dumpster diving, our gaze is shifted to restaurant practices, as well as the issue of composting.
We look at a possible imagined future, and get the fuel to keep the conversation going.
