ReFED Food Waste Solutions Summit 2025 Mainstage Session 2 of 4 Tuesday, June 24, 2025 We can’t address food waste without understanding the broader food system and the world in which that system operates. This session takes a step back to help frame up the context in which we accomplish our work—the policies, trends, technologies, and environmental issues that shape the system that produces (and wastes) our food.
