goal to reduce food loss and waste by half by the year 2030</span></a><span style="font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif;color:#151515"> and are seeking to work with public and private partners to take action and make this happen over the next 14 years. The </span><a href="http://www.chlpi.org/food-law-and-policy/"><span style="font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif;color:#4D8E4D">Harvard
Food Law and Policy Clinic (FLPC)</span></a><span style="font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif;color:#151515"> is one of EPA’s partners and is at the forefront of identifying key areas where current laws create barriers to reducing this food waste or where policies
can incentivize more food recovery, and is actively working on the federal and state level to help reform those laws. One way to assist with the proliferation of better food recovery laws and policies is by providing information to states and local governments
regarding methods of increasing food recovery. In order to make such information more widely available, FLPC created a toolkit for state and local policymakers interested in reducing food waste. This toolkit brings together lessons from their research and
policy work in date labeling, tax incentives, liability protections, organic waste bans, leftovers for livestock as well as other food waste policies, to provide state and local policy makers with a comprehensive menu of policy options to reduce food waste.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif;color:#151515">Join this webinar to learn what is included in this toolkit, and how you can use it in your state or local food waste policy planning. Presenters will explain the content and how best to use the toolkit,
with a focus on a few of the sections, and will answer questions from webinar participants about these and other examples.</span><br>
