Get an inside look at how much food is wasted in our dining halls at the post-consumer level, and see how Notre Dame diverts it from the landfill! Join Campus Dining in weighing food scraps in our dining halls, and learn how you can make an impact to reduce food waste. Campus Dining will be hosting these events on April 17th in South Dining Hall and April 24th in North Dining Hall from 4-9 PM! Register to volunteer for a 2-hour shift here. 

Did you know? Reducing food waste is currently rated as the #1 way to mitigate the climate crisis. In the U.S. alone, nearly 40% of food is wasted at the consumer level, contributing to greenhouse gas emissions, wasted resources, and keeping food-insecure people hungry.
