Advocacy
Advocacy: Reducing Kitchen Waste
The Issue
Kitchen waste is a growing concern in many Filipino homes. Food often gets thrown away due to overbuying, improper storage, and lack of planning.
Causes
- Overbuying groceries without a plan
- Improper food storage
- Cooking more than what is needed
- Not using leftovers creatively
Effects
- More waste ending up in landfills
- Higher household expenses
- Harm to the environment
- Wasted time, effort, and resources
Steps Toward Change
- Educate families about proper food storage and planning.
- Create simple meal plans based on what’s already at home.
- Use leftovers in creative recipes instead of throwing them away.
- Compost organic waste when possible.
- Support and practice sustainable habits in the kitchen.
Closing Thought:
Small habits in the kitchen can create a big positive impact — for our homes, our budget, and the environment.
