Solar energy is now protecting some German vineyards from climate change as well as helping to mitigate global warming by producing clean energy to help get fossil fuels off of the electricity grid.

Food loss & waste is a huge issue, when ~40% of the world's food is never eaten.
That means that ~40% of the world's agricultural land, water, chemical inputs, and greenhouse gases *weren't even necessary* to feed the world.
And much of this waste ends up in landfills, where it releases methane.

The holiday season is here — a time for good food and good company! 🍽️ It’s also a reminder that reducing food loss and waste is one of the most effective climate solutions available today.
