What to do

Today, pay attention to what you eat and where it comes from.
Do the following:
Choose at least one local or seasonal food (e.g. local vegetables, fruits, grains, or fish).
Make an effort to avoid food waste today by eating leftovers, buying only what you need, or storing food properly.

At the end of the day, write a brief reflection about:
What local or seasonal food you chose
One way you reduced food waste
Why this choice matters for the environment and local communities
