Food, Waste, and Climate - Part 1 - Food (Morning Workshop)

GrowNYC is hosting a virtual workshop: Food, Waste, and Climate - Part 1 - Food on October 16, 2020 from 10:20AM-11:00AM or from 3:20PM-4:00PM. This is part one in a three-part series about the connection between food, waste, and climate change.

Celebrate World Food Day with us on October 16 by learning what you can do to support a sustainable food system. We'll explore what makes a food system sustainable and why it is so important for our own food security and the health of our planet.

How we grow, distribute, and dispose of our food has an impact on the health of the planet. Food, Waste and Climate is a three-part series that explores the intersection of food and waste with the fight against the climate crisis.

This series is recommended for middle and high school students and educators. Participants who register as a teacher will be provided access to a google classroom with additional extension materials, discussion questions and an exit slip that can be shared with students.

Can't make the scheduled times? Choose a time and register for the Recording and Google Classroom ticket and we will send the materials to you the week following the event. (No need to register for both if you are attending the live virtual event as all participants will receive follow up materials.)
