THE FACTS: HOW MUCH FOOD IS WASTED IN AMERICA? And how to SOLVE IT. REGREEN TECHNOLOGIES and THE WASTE AGENCY SOLUTION.

80 billion lbs of food is thrown away each year in the U.S. alone. This is the equivalent of the 1,000 Empire State Buildings.  

The United States is the global leader in food waste, with Americans discarding nearly 40 million tons of food every year.1 That’s 80 billion pounds of food and equates to more than $161 billion, approximately 219 pounds of waste per person and 30-40 percent of the US food supply. Most of this food is sent to landfills; food is the single largest component taking up space inside US landfills. In fact, it makes up 22 percent of municipal solid waste (MSW). 

Regreen patented technology and processes creating zero waste for food and organics. Creating fully sustainable carbon negative results. With confidence and precision of being space conscious and processing upto 15 tons per hour from start to finish. No waste, creating energy and reclaiming water.

Wasting food has irreversible environmental consequences: it wastes the water and energy it took to produce it, and generates greenhouse gases — 7 percent of the world’s emissions — like methane, carbon dioxide and chlorofluorocarbons, which contribute to global warming. Food that sits decaying in landfills also produces nitrogen pollution, which causes algae blooms and dead zones. 

According to the World Wildlife Federation, the production of wasted food in the United States is equivalent to the greenhouse emissions of 37 million cars.

Headquartered in Huntington Beach, California, Regreen Technologies is an American made solution that maintains American jobs works with some of the top Waste agencies currently providing working solutions, with EPA and AQMD results. Curb the supply chain of how food waste is handled.

The good news is that several states across the country are taking action to curb food waste and gain food recovery. Legislators in California, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Vermont have passed laws that restrict the amount of food waste going to landfills, with Vermont establishing a Universal Recycling Law that bans food scrap waste altogether by the end of this year. This is where Regreen has a major part in the circular economy of how its handled.

There is pending legislation in California, Colorado and Massachusetts that would establish programs to fund private-sector programs like Regreen. States like Tennessee and Washington, and cities like Los Angeles and Madison, Wisconsin, have created food waste task forces to work on education and infrastructure and eliminating food waste from US landfills.

Last year, the New York City Department of Sanitation expanded upon their organics separation rules, proposing that even more food-related businesses would be required to separate organic waste in an effort to keep nearly 100,000 tons of wasted food out of landfills each year.
