	"description": "Every year in the U.S., nearly 40% of food goes to waste. This food waste piles up in landfills and generates methane pollution – a major contributor to climate change. At the same time, millions of Americans face food insecurity. And then, there is the water, energy, and labor it took to produce this food in the first place – all of that wasted. Clearly, our food system is broken. But we have the tools to fix it. We can invest in food recovery programs that rescue edible food for donation and compost inedible food scraps into healthy soil. These policies can slash climate pollution, fight hunger, and build a more resilient local food system. Tell your governor: Develop and implement an innovative Food Waste Prevention and Recycling program for the state.",
