Almost any business can successfully create fewer discards by buying less, and therefore divert food discards from landfills.  Businesses with record-setting food diversion programs are recovering 50% to 100% of their food discards and reducing their overall solid waste by 33% to 85%.  But recovery of food and other organics is just one part of a successful overall waste reduction program. We also recover resources from soft plastics, fluorescent light tubes, used cooking oils, wood pallets and e-waste, including used computers, TVs, monitors and peripherals.

This revolution runs on table scraps.

Food scraps (discards) are food preparation wastes and uneaten foods from,commercial establishments, institutions, and industries. They originate from restaurants, supermarkets, produce stands, school cafeterias, hospitals, food processors, farmers, hotels, prisons and employee lunch rooms. They include: outdated bread, wilted lettuce, vegetable peels, fruit pits, meat, bones, waxed cardboard and soiled paper.
