global greenhouse gas emissions are attributable to food waste. it's simply not sustainable. and that the center of the ethos of the freedom movement is to live more sustainable lives beyond the trappings of liberal capitalism. and it's, it's imperative the, the scale that this issue is that we do something about it the there's a waste in every step of the food system from the farm where the food is pick the perfectionist standards that we have. where if you go to an american supermarket, a key we is always about the same size as a chicken egg, like perfect. and that's true of the size of a mango, the size of a papaya,

the size of an apple, the size of a potato, which we all know, there's huge variation in the things. and so on the farm from right, then everything gets wasted. and then the next step is when they package it and ship it, and some of it gets wasted in the packaging. and then at the supermarket, if it's produced, it gets a little bruised. if it has a little then through doing it gets wasted. the whole idea of perfection seems like a nice idea. i mean that's what advertising is all about. to have the perfect house has the perfect vacation, have the perfect vehicle, have perfect couch. perfect furniture, have everything perfect. but what we pay for the perfection is a really quick destruction of our planet. and that's not perfect.

the, all of these potatoes, holla, daniels, onions. all of these came from westbound sources. the i speak openly about my freakiness and with my family and friends, i don't hide it from anybody. i'm not ashamed of it. it strikes some people as, as odd. put some folks off, particularly i'm thinking of my sister when i told her that, you know, i do food rescue. she's like, oh, what's that? it's like, well, food that's going to be thrown away. so dumpster diving. i'm like, well yeah, that's one way to do it. like so you're in a dumpster like yeah, there's food in there. so i don't know. i mean there's some stuff in there. oh yeah . there might be something. yeah. i like that good like greens and whatnot. i imagine that you can make a serial. you know, what are the 2 things right? yeah, yeah. hey,

just talking openly about it when we start being guarded, when we're ashamed of it. that reified as other people's impression that it is a shameful thing to do if you try to hide it like, oh yeah, well, you know, sometimes we're like in the dumpster, but it just says, no, we get food from the dumpster because good food is there. then prompt them to ask why, why is good food in the dumpster? well, all tell you because of these wasteful system that we live in. and it's an opportunity to have a conversation if you're just bolden up front about it. stores in our country, our abundantly stocked and they don't want to ever have to run out of any product so that people have this comfortable sense of having everything they could ever dream of. and this is the byproduct of that. we're also wasting all of this good food. this is not yet expired, but they've got a new shipment in. this is best buy march 21st,

which is in 2 days. so they probably got a whole lot more of this product. and so they got rid of the older one and there's one type of food that they've last for years after they move buyer. and that can food and the theme in this cabinet here mostly can that. yeah. so if we have another foreign team, i'm good. i don't know why it gets thrown out. i can try manga yesterday. ah, i opened, ah, can find an expression. and then he said the things last forever saw by september, september 20th 2021. so i don't know why this, even there's other type of what's my job isn't e s l teacher? i sense i have all my future immigrants, so i get the unique opportunity to kind of be like them, bass or to american culture. so i will introduce them to things that maybe they

wouldn't get from another teacher and you know, some people are kind of grossed out by it or whatever, but other people i find it. and i've had students that like, oh, how do you do this? you're working, you do you know where, where, where can i go and i go walk around a neighborhood. if you see a dumpster look inside, you never know what's gonna be in there. in new york city, the garbage is put out differently than in most of the rest of the country, because especially in manhattan, there's no back parking lot. normally there is no place where they keep a dumpster normally, the supermarkets and bakeries and stores all put their garbage on bags on the curb at night. ah, ah ah, ah,

ah, ah. i think there are free guns who are finding lots more food than they themselves want, and it's just an instinct or propensity to not let the food get wasted, that you're going to take it just so it doesn't sit there in the trash. and then in 20 or 30 minutes, a truck comes by and it just gets shipped off and thrown out into a landfill. ah, darlene offered me some of the food that she put in her fridge and this was the picture she sent me. oh my god, what you'd like. yeah. and it's absolutely more. yeah. this is the bounty for today. there's more blueberries. i didn't know if you want to green or

purple. great. not the both wash. beautiful apples giant. clean apples. and can just construct beautiful. remember last night when we were on our walk home and i found that container structure. exactly. so i was thinking that's why i didn't mention i need those 2 because i felt greedy now and i have enough. but i'll take because you know there been smoothie beautiful and i have a case of blueberries. if you would like more rain buried. i do encourage people to do it because if there is far more food and other things than i could possibly consume. wow, baby. yeah, and i don't usually take fresh stuff more than i need unless i know that my friend jared like will is i want to see or i might get a little extra but i don't want, i don't wanna take stuff home. they knows what to go bad. cuz i can leave so much. i'm really grateful that i found this freaking group because nice to have these

good people in my life like darlene and rich. you know, people who think the way i think people are attracted to us because we think differently than most of society that we're not always thinking about. i have to get that thing that i just saw advertise because the newest and the best. but really quite the opposite that we're thinking, i don't have to get something just because it's newer and better that they're more important things than having the best of everything and, and kind of having the best friendships and relationships and integrity and knowing good people that's really important me ah, i got this place last may and the panoramic. everything was close. i had no

interest in going to stores on top of that. i have run it by anything i was gonna buy cheap junk. i spent what i put on the place. but i managed to furnish place beautifully just with things i got from for free. this on the side of the street. this on the side of the street. it's thing weighs a 1000 pounds, a nice piece of furniture. i don't know who to put in it, but it's got nice shelves, doors and everything in here is stuff i've picked up there around the from their various places we ever wore or anything, plenty of bandages and medical supplies, blood pressure monitor. this is, this is, this is like my, this is my, on my pharmacy to read. i can't he, things like tooth paste. i got enough for years and here i had finally from magnesium or cohen cohen health pill probiotics. i got them are i given the people they need them? but it's just it's, it's amazing. like i pick up a lot of random things and i try to give them away for stuff i don't use and do pretty good. pretty good job of getting rid of stuff and but you know, i don't, my,

one of my goals is not to have too much, but i want to tell you that kind of a sad and funny that have them. i found 2 packs of 5000 staples, i realized i will never buy staples again as long as i live. i have to stable to rest my life. there are, there are a lot of resources on, on the web to find things on facebook. there. bunch of different pages called bio, they're combined, nothing groups and they're very local. people have babies out here and they, babies grew up and they get rid of their stuff. they need to buy it again. there's a baby carrier. so everything but the baby that winter hat, some people post, i think i want to read this article say hey, do you have this? and it talks people up. this one is actually this person is looking for a breast on this person who has one. so now they're going to meet, you know, say here's somebody either by stolen since, since my, as a star by somebody's got some spare chicken. and somebody else wants it. somebody is stopped by a few minutes ago and she got some lip balm and face mask and things like that that

i had picked up. and now now it's somebody's using it. it wasn't just thrown away. me. make no, certainly no borders under my number. is emerge, we don't have authority, we go to the back scene, the whole world needs to take action and be ready. people are just you know. 2 common crisis we can do better, we should be better. everyone is contributing each in their own way. but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever. the challenges to response has been massive. so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we need together in

one of the worst ever mass shootings in america was in las vegas in 2017. the tragedy a close a little of the real last vegas where many say elected officials are controlled by christina learners. the vegas shooting revealed what the l v n p d really is. and now it's part of the stand machine to the american public barely remember that it happened just shows you the power of money and las vegas. the powerful showed that true colors when the pen demik hit the most contagious contagion that we've seen in decades. and then you have a mayor who doesn't care to. here's caroline goodman, offering the lives of the vegas residence. to be the control group to the shiny facades conceal a deep indifference to the people the vice could have been saved if they were to take an action. absolutely keep the registering and keep the slot machines doing. this is a money machine is

a huge cash register that is ran by people who don't care about people's lives being lost. one of the persian gulf wealthiest country is, has spent billions of dollars on state of the art stadiums. wow. look at this. the stadium is really taking shape. you can see the bowl and most of the stands now, when we were here a little bit over a year ago, at the same construction site, it was just a foundation and a few metal structures. so it seems that time why this idea to use shipping containers as building blocks has definitely paid off. i mean, they're easy to assemble and easy to dismantle, just like playing with lego the for the 1st time in a world cup hayes street, the stadium will be billed from shipping containers and what's more, it will be completely dismantled after the tournament. the,

the as a korea professionals board is much tougher on some than others. she was year old. my by everybody. so why would somebody believe me, i was just a little girl. the price paid to, to, to achieve really was, was to read in the paper this morning, usa swimming coach, arrested, allegedly had sex with a 12 year old girl. this happens almost every week. we get calls of the office. i get informed about one of my greatest fears is someone's going to start linking all this together. there's going to be a 60 minute documentary about youth coaches in sports like gymnastics swimming. is that documentary? i see it on our tea.

ah, this is fun. someone to someone dropped off and love yesterday. so welcome to our free store. we launched this right now. we're just over one week anniversary. this used to be just this stuff right here. this plywood just this graffiti and it was full of trash. all of that single waste plastic that blowing all over the city . the 2nd here, cigarette, but bottles, people were loitering, it was and i for it was attracting all 1st about stuff and we decided, let's put it's a good use for the community. and i found a bunch of stuff in the trash like this beautiful black sign that was ready to go in the garbage. the. so everything came from the trash from our street right here

and how this is given, take over everything, not just all of these items, but given take a skills resources. there's a lot of turnover in this neighborhood that when people buy all their fancy things to furnish their apartments and then they leave town. so often it literally goes in the trash. someone took our shell, that was great over here. real estate bought well, got more. so this is what i'm talking about. this is amazing, has exactly the type of stuff we need. so i love this, i've been enjoying looking at the pictures on the group and looking at the 2000 in the turnover. been like phenomenal people are seeing someone saw like there's a he ruler and they're like, oh i wonder if that's still there because you can see it sometimes the post photos in our by nothing group that. yeah. okay. alright, we're off. so i'm a great day and this is, you know, pilot for the community and for our elected officials and for our building owners

to see when the community comes together. yeah. it's going to stay neat. it's going to stay tidy. let us in your spaces. yeah. spaces, there's such an abundance of stuff that people are getting rid of. there is such tremendous need. we don't need to buy anything more. we don't need to buy new. it all exist, whatever we need. and there could be so much more share and we just need the spaces to do it. what did you get to choose? oh my god. well it's great to see you have a nice to choose. we're on the way to a 3 cycle event. first hills queens. so i was here with all my giveaway random things that i've accumulated over the last,

whatever years and months and days. so this is a new event, as far as i know that they're running a lot. so people can bring things to give away and people can come and take things for free. and this is great for me because i'm always looking for a way to give things away. this was in the trash of a store because christmas was over. so it's a completely good item that became garbage tax laws, you know, definitely do benefit the wealthier people in our society. so that makes sense for them to throw it out right off rather than give it to somebody who could use it. because then that person is not going to buy it, of the core of the philosophy is reducing waste, whatever would otherwise become waste, stopping it from becoming waste. and instead using it in a way that transcends traditional capitalist markets. there is no exchange of money

. so we're just looking to use things that other people no longer have any use for or have decided not to have a use for i'm just showing mark a gift that i'm bringing. i found that st recently like this week and really how that's a nice fine. that's awesome. yeah. yeah. so yeah. besides the missing strings that has like this might need. oh yeah. it's the thing on the back. i forgot the not nothing. yeah. so they're not needs a repair or placement. it's not even an issue that we should only be thinking of as happening in the global south or over in somewhere in the 3rd world. this is an issue right here in our backyard. when people think of issues of food and equities and hunger, they always think of something maybe they might see on tv asking to make a donation to feed children in africa or what have you. but people are starving

right here in the united states and our own backyard in our community. there are people hungry and dying on the streets right here. this isn't a problem over there. this is a problem with which we as americans are intimately linked because it's happening around us in our own communities. and there are resources to do something about it . here in our community. any local rocher is throwing away tens upon tens upon tens of pounds of food, perhaps even hundreds of pounds of food every week. and you could just go take that, then you could use it to feed people in your community. we have the tools to build solutions to these problems at the local level and a comparative that we do. well, not everybody has to dumpster dive to get free food. and it's nice that i think, especially during the pandemic, there's been

a lot of concern about all of the people who have lost their jobs and haven't been able to make rent, and haven't been able to keep up with the economy. but let it, let us grab it for him and let us grab it for you. let us grab it for you. this is aaron mckenna bakery. we pick up from here every sunday and they give us a bunch of a really good treat. usually it's what they have left from the day before, i believe sometimes they throw in some fresh extra stuff for us. people in the park just absolutely go wild over these everything weekend gluten free. not free, i think as well. so pretty much anyone can eat them unless they're trying to cut down on sugar more or less at the end of the day, we don't throw anything. we like to donate stuff. we give it out to the neighborhood, our friends around here or not. i know the area more or less so i know where there's people that are like homeless. i'll go on next to them and i'll give them stuff the. you don't waste that all here we try to make the best of everything we

do here. wasting food is terrible in general, but i think especially in new york, just are so many people you know, in such close proximity that need it. i think other bakeries during the way, instead of donating it, it's kind of just been a couple of dollars myself where they were like instead of donating and they'd rather just throw it away because it was maybe losing money, but you lose money anyway, throwing it away and so i think it be better if you just gave it to someone in rabbit funds that are right there. let me get you. my name is sand agnew. i'm a volunteer with the lower manhattan food, not bombs. and we are in tompkins square park right now, which is where we serve food every sunday at 4 30 pm. it's food that was otherwise going to be thrown away from a grocery store that we pick it up from. and we take the food of food. we cook it

every sunday and we serve in the park for free people who are hungry as a way to mitigate food waste and feed hungry people and just build a sense of solidarity and resiliency in our community. we just have, you know, just sort of, you know, big and groceries. cato pepper, tomatoes and through banana plants. and some of these bags have read and now we got roll a cinnamon raisin bread i. it's just all contingent upon what we get on a weekly basis and our donation. sometimes we'll get 10 boxes of food. sometimes we'll just get one or 2 and none of the food was ever in the trash. this is all donated to buy groceries stuff. they're not going to sell, but it never makes it in the trash. and then every month, anybody want that me, i never, ever, ever needed food. but because of kelvin and my dog,

i became really scared. so we started going to the pantry just to see what you want just to participate and see what they're giving out and anything i don't use, i think around the name of other people and i'm retired and there's no work. so it's very scary time. and people here are very afraid, everybody in the city is very afraid because it's empty now and nobody knows what they're, they're planning and i wasn't my thing. i would say the majority of people who come here are people who come to the park regularly. they live in the area of a big chunk of them are on fixed income or are on disability or on unemployment or food stamps, and don't really have a huge budget for their groceries. there are a lot of other places who provide deals for people in the area. one of them,

you know, is government based and of your financial need. you need to somehow prove that you need the help when it comes to food, not bombs, will serve absolutely anyone you know, whether they're doing well or not. because it's about, you know, redirecting food ways. it's about, you know, these, any, any amount of food that we serve them is a meal that they are not paying a grocery store for. or, you know, consuming in feeding into the market and creating more ways the community fridge that we come to after. we finish serving whenever we have leftovers. we we just put all of our, all of our left high turnover regrade or free food. anyone can come in to get anyone to come in for food and there's a pretty high turnover rate for this one. i check it every few days and you know, if you look at, if you come here like you in the morning and see what's in there, you come there the next day, all of it will be gone. so this,

this refrigerator feeds a lot of people in the neighborhood, and we always just, whenever we have left over in the fridge afterwards. basically during the pandemic, i think last summer in particular, there was like a big move to set up, free fridge is all over the city. so in a lot of neighborhoods in new york city, there are these refrigerators that anyone can go to and get food. so yeah, really cool aspect of mutual aid in practice. and just to piggyback on that, that is a very, very nice thing that people do that they put food in the refrigerator because there are a lot of homeless people around here. and they, i guess they do appreciate, you know, what is being done in this neighborhood. i live right up the block. my name is robert. i bring stuff down also just so that people can have something to this time. got a really, really picky. what's going on as far as the panoramic is concerned,

lot of people don't have money to go shopping to elderly parents or whatever the case may be. but you know, really, really a wonderful thing. people do bring with me. i mean, it's like a gods. then i mean, you can't, you can't put in any other way. i wonder if i have another bagel bag for such purposes. yeah, i have a i have a clean bag for you here. i read in the news recently. i didn't read the details of it. kind of busy at work, but that france has, has recently made it illegal for sources. throw away food. so they have to distribute the food. that's the are they still edible reads like were here things get near the expiration date. they throw it out like a great thing would be if i were to go look at a dumpster and there is nothing there that would be, that would be awesome. that's an i, it's doing that's not going to happen. i'm not trying to get everyone to learn to

dumpster dive. i'm trying to change the way that we're managing the economy and dealing with the food. there should not be all this waste. there should not be the ability to dumpster dive the the summer solutions. that's where i would look at the problem to look at the solution . and today we've got the one on the marshall auerbach is the market analyst at levy institute researcher and tragic follower of the toronto police. but maybe this is they, are they want to stanley cup the

ah, me the with florence i do, but if he's like, case studies that make it the transformations over the past decade, advanced mega project. most go urban for 2021. the largest indian national congress
