Section 2
Where KTMB’s framing is most useful
Food waste touches households, events, schools, and businesses, so the guidance centers habits that can scale across daily life.
- Plan purchases and meals more intentionally.
- Store food in ways that extend usefulness and reduce spoilage.
- Look for reuse, donation, and composting pathways where appropriate.
Section 3
Prevent, reduce, compost
The live KTMB page presents these as the three simplest frames for action. Prevention is the first win, reduction improves day-to-day habits, and composting helps when food can no longer be used.
