38% of all food goes unsold or uneaten. That’s almost 149 BILLION meals per year. But a lot of that is preventable if we address food waste. Plus, most of the time, reducing food waste ends up saving us money and time. A planet with less food waste is ideal for all of us!

Anyway, while Apple announces some new phone and new unhelpful AI tech, we’re running a Better Tech challenge on Commons. We’ll reward you for buying refurbished technology instead or repairing what you have at local tech repair shops. Don’t let them convince you that they’re our only path forward.

Here’s your reminder that patriarchy 100% influences the climate.
When women are made to feel insecure about every single feature they have, we turn to buying solutions. Skims is a company with billions of dollars of success built off of this model.
