"Can Surplus Food Solve London's Hunger Crisis?" with Paul Baines from 'The Felix Project'

Can a broken food system be fixed by businesses across the capital?  Our guest on this week's epsiode is Paul Baines from The Felix Project, a leading food redistribution charity tackling food poverty head-on in London. Paul shares how The Felix Project is rescuing surplus food from going to waste and delivering it to those who need it most — from school children to vulnerable families. We explore the scale of food waste in the UK, the logistical challenges of redistribution, and the powerful social and environmental impact of their work. Plus we discuss how through our partnership with The Felix Project, businesses can ramp up their food waste strategy and reduce waste whilst helping those most in need.

"How businesses can fight Food Waste" with Too Good To Go's Jamie Crummie

Every year we throw away around 9.5 million tonnes of food waste every year, most of which will end up in landfills where it decomposes and releases harmful gas such as methane.  In this episode of Climate Heroes, we sat down with Jamie Crummie, Co-founder of the Too Good To Go app responsible for saving over 300 million meals from going to waste. Listen to Jamie & Bruce discuss the importance of Stop Food Waste Day, what we can all do to fight the food waste epidemic, as well as how businesses can get prepared for the upcoming ‘Simpler Recycling Reforms’ which will legally require businesses to recycle their surplus food from next year. Hosted by Bruce Bratley Featuring Jamie Crummie & Sara Shearly

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
