One of my favorite holidays of the year is Thanksgiving, but like many holidays, it can produce a lot of waste. Luckily, there are a lot of ways to make your 2020 Thanksgiving sustainable. You probably already practice some of them.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
1. Reducing Waste<\/strong><\/h3>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
This first suggestion is the easiest on the list! Just use reusable silverware, glasses, napkins etc. Yes, it may entail a little extra cleaning, but you have to admit that plastic knives aren\u2019t the easiest to use on turkey anyway.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
2. Shop Local<\/strong><\/h3>\n
<\/strong><\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
Local food markets are inherently more sustainable because they don\u2019t have carbon emissions from transportation. Also, many small farms have better conditions for their livestock and crops because they aren\u2019t mass producing or mass slaughtering for meat. Not to mention that a lot of smaller businesses and organizations are in need of financial support right now!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
3. Only Buy\/Cook What You Can Eat<\/strong><\/h3>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We all love to have Thanksgiving leftovers, but you should still be conscious of how much food you are cooking. Don\u2019t cook a meal that your family will never be able to eat, because chances are, you\u2019ll get sick of the leftovers before you can finish them. It is estimated that roughly 200 million pounds of turkey are wasted every Thanksgiving, 40 million pounds of potatoes, 30 million of stuffing, and more. So, maybe buy the smaller turkey this year \u2013 especially if you\u2019re not having a large gathering anyway. <\/p>\n
