Food Rescue MAINE cited in Maine Monitor ‘trash talk’ report
In an article about landfills receiving more trash from towns in recent years, The Maine Monitor cited information about food waste provided by Food Rescue MAINE, an initiative from the University of Maine Senator George J. Mitchell Center for Sustainability Solutions. According to Food Rescue MAINE, “research shows that approximately 40% of the food that we produce ends up in the trash.” The Portland Press Herald, The Courier-Gazette and the Penobscot Bay Pilot shared the article from The Maine Monitor.
