Happy #WorldFoodDay! 🍋🍛🥑🥚

#DidYouKnow food waste accounts for over 3 billion tons of greenhouse gas per year?

If wasted food were a country, it would be the third-largest producer of CO2 in the world, after the 🇺🇸 and 🇨🇳.

⏰ It's time to #StopTheWaste ↘️

Ever heard someone tell you that younger trees absorb more carbon dioxide that older trees?

THINK AGAIN say the scientists inverviewed in Wired.

“You can't sequester a lot of carbon without big trees,” Lutz says. “You just can't do it.”

Awesome op-ed from @CityCollegeNY students working with @596Acres about one of the many problems with the city's tax lien sale process, which puts important neighborhood cultural, nonprofit, and faith-based institutions at risk #protectourplaces
