IMPACT | Ep 4 | Fighting food waste begins at home

Food waste is costing Australian households $10 billion a year – so what’s the solution? CQUniversity researcher Dr David Pearson is on a mission to find out, and hopes that leveraging leftovers could help save some of the $3800 of food that the average family throws away every year. The Engage Program Leader with the Australian Fight Food Waste Cooperative Research Centre (FFWCRC) shared his progress with CQUniversity Sydney AVP (NSW) Shehan Thampapillai, and new research-informed hacks to help households eat better, and bin less.  This is the fourth episode for CQUniversity’s newest podcast series: IMPACT, a podcast that explores groundbreaking research projects and their real-world impacts.
