Instead, try <strong>reclaiming your food waste<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Composting is an important climate solution that promotes healthy soil, carbon sequestration, and reduces methane emissions resulting from landfilled food waste. (Check out last week\u2019s newsletter for tips on how to compost!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But an even more effective climate solution than composting is reducing your food waste. A great way to reclaim the food that\u2019s starting to turn in your fridge is by <strong>rehydrating <\/strong>it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do you have bendy carrots? Wilted lettuce? Don\u2019t toss them! Simply place your sad-looking produce in ice water, put it in the fridge, and wait. It can take anywhere from one hour to one day to rehydrate fully, but your produce will look, feel, and taste good as new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This trick will work for heartier vegetables like carrots, celery, beets, potatoes, asparagus, and broccoli, as well as leafy greens like spinach, kale, and even herbs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s International Compost Awareness Week!
