swimming is that documentary, i see it on our t as well as sanction. rarely, we're rarely working maybe a week, maybe a month. but the world always figures a way to get around the same. whether it's whatever it is that was anxious, don't work. politicians get publicity and they say see, i am saving the world, saving themselves and they're making friends which the, the news i actually don't want any be able to hand. yeah. of course. oh we're, we're not doing anything illegal. so there's,

there would be a law against it, but there is no law against taking food from the trash in. the stores are not giving the food away. the reason that there are stores just for people to make money. there's no announcement that's made 20 minutes before the store closes . attention customers. the food you're now looking at will very soon in 20 minutes . be on the curb. outside. don't bother buying it and you can get it for free. so the reason that stores are uncomfortable are the management of stores. the people who work there might be uncomfortable about seeing people salvaging good food that they throw out is because it might be a threat to their business. ah, who are rescuing the food that they were not scavenging or were rescuing resources

that are still good? i teach english as a 2nd language you did in a few different colleges in town. warding college, urban happened college and patient diversity. i can afford to shop, it's not like i'm starving, but the environmental issue is a big thing. i have a 12 year old son and i'm kind of feel about the world we're leaving him. and i know that me taking the odd thing here. there is not going to change anything, but if a lot more people did it, there be a lot less stuff going into the waste stream. and i'm getting some eating the food that i get of recycling the packaging. and composting what i don't eat, so i feel like it's, you know, it's a little bit, but it's just, you know, we had 7000000 people, all that a little bit. it would make a math difference. food waste is a dagger in problem that i think many of people don't conceive the scale almost a 5th of the farmland in the united states. and 4 trillion gallons of water grow

food that just doesn't get eaten because it can't turn a profit, profit seeking capitalists have decided it's not sellable, therefore it won't be edible. almost 8 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions are attributable to food waste. it's simply not sustainable and at 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, ah, 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 these 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 surrounding 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. all these potatoes, holla, piano's 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. strike 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 gifts 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 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 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 are 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 the last 3 years after that ever the buyer. and that can food and the theme in the 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 tried manga yesterday. ah, i opened, ah, can or find the expression. and by that he said, this is last forever. so by september, september 20th 2021. so i don't know why this, even in the other 5 months with my job isn't

e s l teacher. i sense i have all my students are immigrants, so i get the unique opportunity to kind of be like them bastards, 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 to, where can i go and i go walker, any neighborhood? if you see a dumpster look inside, you never know what's going to be in there. in new york city, the garbage is put out differently than and 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. i think there are free guns who are finding lots more food than they themselves. one, 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 purple grape not both wash, beautiful apples. jain norm is clean apple 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 i have enough, but i'll take because you know, they're good and smoothly. beautiful. and i have a case of blueberries, if you would like more rain berries. 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 it's i want to see or i might get a little extra but i don't want i don't want to take stuff home. they know something bad because i can leave so much. i'm really grateful that i found this free going group because nice to have these good people in my life life, 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 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

i i got this place last may and all the panoramic. everything was close. i know interesting going to stores on top of that, i have gonna buy anything. i was gonna buy cheap junk. i spent what i put on the place. but i managed the 1st place beautifully, just was things i got from for free. this on the side of the street. the other side of the street. it's thing weighs a 1000 pounds, a nice piece of furniture. i don't know how 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 that we ever wore or anything and plenty of bandages and medical supplies, blood pressure monitor. this is, this is, this is like, my, this, my, on my pharmacy to read. i can't hear things like toothpaste. i got enough years in here. i had finally for magnesium or cohen how and health pill probiotics. i've got

them are i given the people they need them? 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 job, getting rid of stuff and but you know, i know my, one of my goals is not to have too much, but i want to say that kind of was sad and funny. the same time i found 2 packs of $5000.00 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 by their 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 don't need to buy it again. there's a baby carrier. so everything but the baby winter had some people post. i think i want to get rid of this goes to, hey, do you have this? and it talks people up. this one has actually this person's looking for a breast pump. this person 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 lit bomb and face mask and things like that that i had picked up. and i'm out now now it's somebody's using it. it wasn't just thrown away. join me every posted on the alex, silent show and i'll be speaking to guess in the world, the politics sport. business. i'm show business. i'll see you then me this is your media reflection of reality. the in a world transformed what will make you feel safe for tyson lation community?

are you going the right way or are you being that somewhere? direct? what is true? what is faith? in the world corrupted, you need to defend the so join us in the depths will remain in the shallows. ah, i saw the sanction. rarely was rarely work except maybe a week, maybe a month. but the world always figures a way to get around the fact whether it's whatever it is that's was anxious, don't work. politicians get publicity, and they say, see, i am saving the world. they're saving themselves and they're making friends, which ah,

this is fine. someone someone dropped in love yesterday. so welcome to our free store. we launched this right now. we're just over our 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 sorts about stuff and we decided let's put us a good used to 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 help kitchen. this is given take of everything, not just all of these items,

but given take a skills resources, there's a lot of turnover in this neighborhood. so 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 shelf that was right over here. real estate bought well, got more. this is what i'm talking about. this is amazing. that's 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 $200.00. the turnover been like phenomenal people are seeing someone saw like there's this, he ruler and they're like, oh, i wonder if that's still there because you can see it. sometimes we post photos in our by nothing group that yeah. okay. alright, we're off. so have a great day and it's a pass in a pilot for the community and for our elected officials and for, for building owners to see when the community comes together. yeah,

it's going to stay neat. it's gonna stay tidy. let us in your spaces. yeah. spaces . there is 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, that's great to see. you have a nice to choose. we're on the way to a 3 cycle event, 1st hills queens. so i was here with all my giveaways and 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 perfectly 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 and write it 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 this. i'm just showing mark a gift that i'm bringing him. i found it st recently like this week. and really how that's a nice find. that's awesome. yeah. yeah. so yeah. besides the missing strings that has like this might need. oh yeah, that's the thing on the national. forgot the not nothing. yeah. so the not needs a repair or placement. yeah. 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 backyards. 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 in 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 to because it's happening around us in our own community and our 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 and 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 it's imperative 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 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's 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 if 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, eat. you don't waste at 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,

there are so many people you know and such as close proximity that need it. i think other bakeries during the ways that instead of donating it is kind of just in a couple of dogs 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 sam 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 true that was otherwise going to be thrown away from a grocery store that we pick it up from. and we take the food, all the food. we cook it every sunday and we serve in the park for free. the 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 the thought of, you know, being in groceries. cato pepper, tomatoes and brew banana plant pains. some of these bags have read in them. now we got roll a cinnamon raisin bread. i 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 we just didn't want anybody you want that me, i never, ever, ever needed food. but because of my dog, i became really care. so we started going to pantries just to see what was

just the parts dissipate. and it was there given now and anything i don't use, i think around the neighborhood to 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 1st 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 for food stamps, and don't really have a huge budget for their groceries. there are a lot of other places to provide deals for people in the area. one of them, you know, is government based. another one is the church nearby,

but the majority are, you need to prove 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 and feeding into the market in creating more ways in 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 leftovers in this refrigerator. if free food anyone can come in to get anyone can 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 refrigerator feeds

a lot of people in the neighborhood, and we always just put whatever we have left over in the fridge afterwards. basically during the pandemic, i think last summer in particular, there was 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 it's 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 through this real time. got a really, really what's going on,

as far as the pandemic is concerned, a lot of people don't have money shopping. you know, they have elderly parents or whatever the case may be. but you know, this is really, really a wonderful thing that people do bring. i mean, it's like a god 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 the news recently. i didn't read the details of it kind of kind of busy at work, but the france has, has recently made it illegal for source of throw away food. so they have to distribute the food that they still edible. they read like were here, things get near that expiration date. they throw it out like a great thing will be if i were you looking at, i'm certain there was nothing there that would be that would be awesome. that's the thing 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 the, the, the, the, the

floor. it's a super cities like case studies that make it the transformations over the past decade. advance mega projects. most go been for 2021. the largest international congress on make it that he development the restoring contacts and organizing direct dialogue. let me share his expectations for the upcoming summer with joe boyd's plus in the big news stories of the week g 7 lead us agree, a huge global infrastructure plan to challenge china's felton the road initiative. as the 1st in person summit, since the pandemic tools to close in england, plus the look of the french president gets slapped in the face, getting up close and personal with a crowd of supposed supporters in the south of france. ah.
