Thomas McQuillan, Chief Sales Officer of Do Good Foods tells us they are making a difference in taking food waste and turning it into chicken feed. Food waste is the number one item found in landfills. All of our listeners know that landfill waste creates methane and some scientists say that creates up to 84 times more CO2 than CO2 itself. On episode 174 of The Green Insider, hear how Do Good Foods has created a closed loop system that fits into the definition of a circular economy. Their mission is to reduce food waste thereby reducing greenhouse gas. Their plans include continuing to expand their sustainable food system throughout the United States in the years to come.
