Summary
Ravi sits down with Matt Homewood, a dumper diver who is making it his mission to spread the word about the world's No. 1 solution to climate change: food waste. Born in the suburbs of west London, Matt started dumpster diving during a cross-country bike tour of the United States and later continued the trend while studying climate change in Denmark. Astonished by the sheer amount of perfectly suitable food heading to the landfill, Matt started an instagram account (@anurbanharvestor) to shed light on just how much supermarkets were tossing away. Matt and Ravi talk about what he’s learned about retail food waste and how our food system can become less wasteful.
