A NOTE FROM NANCY, FOUNDER OF FOODCYCLE LA Currently more than 1 billion pounds of food is wasted in the US every year. It ends up in landfills where it releases methane gas and is a major contributor to climate change. Meanwhile 45 million people in the US lack access to healthy food. I’m on the Board of Directors of FoodCycle - a nonprofit that is working to solve both these problems at once. FoodCycle picks up excess food from grocery stores, restaurants, farmers markets and factories and redirects it to feed hungry people. Last year FoodCycle delivered almost 3 million meals to hungry people in Los Angeles. This is food that would otherwise have gone to waste. By diverting it to food insecure communities, FoodCycle kept over 3 million pounds of food out of landfills.
