Get Wasted, Session 4: The Low Hanging Fruit = Food WasteGA Circular
This is the slide deck presented at our 4th event of a pressing Series on 'Circular Economy & Waste Management' in Asia.
Globally, about 1/3 of the total amount of food produced in the world never reaches our plates - that's equivalent to $1 trillion dollars! Meanwhile, just a quarter of this is enough to feed 780 million hungry people.
Worst still, if food waste were a country, it would be the world’s third largest emitter of greenhouse gases, with an economic cost of up to US$680 billion.
This session aims to shed light on the current food waste situation, especially in Asia and throughout the food value chain, to look at innovative business solutions, to both reduce food waste & to ensure that unavoidable food waste goes to something useful - i.e. compost to grow our next harvest of nutritious food.
We look forward to stimulating discussions on how to reduce food waste and to turn it into an opportunity for business!

Keeping a close eye on how our society becomes more conscientious about food waste and taking a look at the various solutions startups work out to hack the flawed system gives us an early glimpse into how positive shifts happen in the world. Food waste is a fascinating topic, and only partly because the current numbers and existing processes are outrageous.
Until 2009, there was not much deep information to be found about the exact scale and nature of the food loss and waste in the world. Published that same year, Tristam Stuart’s book, Waste: Uncovering the Global Food Scandal provides a sobering trip to the reality of food. It also highlights an incredibly important fact: with small, common sense tweaks in habits and processes, the current grave situation can be turned on its head and solve the problem of the 842 million people living in hunger around the world too.

This month in our ongoing FringeStream series, our monthly magazine exploring how the fringes of culture are shaping mass behaviors, we're digging into the a topic that tempts us all: FOOD. In gaining an understanding of FringeStream Food, we've unearthed some interesting findings that recognize how the simultaneous celebration of food culture and turmoil of traditional food systems have led to mainstream confusion over what to eat. Find out how empowered groups are moving beyond our over reliance on over-processed convenience food to create new opportunities and an increasing Appetite for Conviction.

#FOODJUSTICE
The Goal of this event was to move the campus community to consider the questions,“What is Food Justice, and what
does it mean to be an eater in today’s world?” Through expert-led discourse, the topic of sustainable food was dissected
down into it’s truest meaning -- no longer satisfied solely by labels such as organic, sustainable, fair, ethical -- but realized
through personal relationships. Discussions were focused around concepts such as “Beyond Fair Trade”, Farm To Table
programs, Community-Based and Driven Business Models, Climate Change, and the Anchoring Role that Institutions like
EWU and the University of Montana inevitably hold to small farmers and local food systems development.

2. The morning began with the two most sustainable coffee
roasters in the Inland North West leading coffee tastings --
Roast House and DOMA. Dr. Julia Smith performed the
opening remarks as well as a “coffee talk” to follow,
covering topics ranging from Climate Change, Coffee
Cherries and Processing, to the Coffee Market as a major
indicator of international food prices. Next, we welcomed
Alison Collins and David Blaine to lead discussion on Farm
To Table and Community Business Practices based on their
current businesses, Central Food and Boots Bakery.

3. SLOW FOOD & COMMUNITY
Estevan Ruiz,The “Chef”
“Slow Food” Lunch
Slow Food means “Good, Clean, and Fair”. For EWU, this
required sourcing ingredients locally, ensuring that their
purchases would support the local economy and were raised
and traded ethically. It would also demand that the preparation
take more time and intention than what is common practice
on a University serving over 7,000 meals per day.
The menu:
House-made Hummus w/ Baked Pita Chips
Vegetarian Local Split Pea Soup
Campus Bakery Focaccia Bread
Roasted Fresh Candied Vegetables w/ Pearl
Barley, drizzled with Brown Butter
Carved Local Beef Sandwiches
4. STRONG PARTNERSHIPS
Throughout the day, the EWU Food Forum welcomed community
organizer, Jace Bylinga from the Sierra Club to educate on the
interconnections between Coal Energy, Climate Change, and
Exotic Foods, while EWU Dining and the EWU Campus Garden
club displayed posters showcasing projects aimed at promoting
sustainable food on campus. All who attended the Keynote
presentation by the Director of Dining at the University of
Montana left inspired towards higher goals in REAL food
procurement on campus and in the community. U of M has past
their REAL Food Challenge Commitment of 20%, with over 25%
REAL food on their campus.They plan to put as much of their
campus into local food procurement as possible.

5. Coffee
Multiple times during the Food Forum, coffee
was referred to as “The Canary in the
Coal Mine” in regards to International Food
Security. Almost all of us can relate to the
morning dose of coffee as a necessary start to
our day; however, how many actually
understand the elaborate process of coffee
from the cherries grown in the developing
world to the beans sent to market? Coffee is
an exotic item grown exclusively in countries
like Ethiopia and Colombia where farmers
struggle just to receive a livable wage for their
work. Meanwhile, international prices continue
to rise in both coffee and food, as Climate
Change has left California and many other
“food baskets” of the world in a state of severe
drought and mixed unpredictable conditions.
Coffee is such a delight, and is clearly
something the world doesn’t want to go
without. It was thus encouraged that we treat
it as such, being conscious about the coffee we
are consuming, questioning if the process and
trade was fair and sustainable.
“COFFEE IS THE SECOND MOST
TRADED COMMODITY IN THE
WORLD -- SECOND TO CRUDE OIL.”
Student Leadership
A key ingredient to what kind of food is served
on any college campus, particularly one that is
Self-Operated like EWU, has to do with
student demand.A student from ASEWU
addressed the crowd asking,“Does EWU have
plans to double or triple production at the
Campus Garden this year?” Another student,
who attended the Food Forum for the entire
day, ended up seeking out ways in which he
could personally get involved with sustainable
food on campus, after proclaiming that he was
seriously inspired by the days speakers and the
energy of the event.
Food & Culture
From the beginning of time food has been a
major part of culture, from the hunting and
gathering days of roots, berries, and bison, to
the globalized market of today where we have
people likeVictor Azar (Owner atVictor
Foods) making Hummus, Falafel, and Pilaf --
sharing his Middle Eastern cultural identity with
the Inland Northwest.Victor is a strong
example of how important food is in
developing who we are, where we go in life,
our message to the world, and how our
community relates to each other. Food is truly
a sacred cultural experience to be preserved.
