1 00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,000 Speaker 1: Jump Mission with Jones and Amanda. 2 00:00:03,120 --> 00:00:05,600 Speaker 2: One of the most inspirational women I've met is Ronnie Kahan. 3 00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:09,200 Speaker 2: She's the founder of oz She's the founder of oz Harvest. 4 00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:12,240 Speaker 2: I put my teeth back in. The nonprofit organization began 5 00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:14,920 Speaker 2: with a simple concept to rescue good food that would 6 00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:17,279 Speaker 2: otherwise go to waste and then deliver it to people 7 00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:20,520 Speaker 2: in need. Today oz Harvest is delivering millions of meals 8 00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:24,520 Speaker 2: and saving thousands of tons of food from landfill. Well, 9 00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:28,520 Speaker 2: now Ronnie wants to turn her attentions to tackling climate 10 00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:32,000 Speaker 2: change from our kitchens. We can tackle it in our 11 00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:34,800 Speaker 2: very own kitchens. Ronnie Kahn, Hello. 12 00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:40,479 Speaker 1: Good morning. You sound I sound like I'm fine, You're okay? 13 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:41,599 Speaker 2: You all right, Ronnie? 14 00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:46,040 Speaker 1: Absolutely, I just needed to clear my throat fuir enough. 15 00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:49,159 Speaker 2: Well, so tell us about this. We know of the 16 00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 2: work of oz Harvest, which is extraordinary, but how can 17 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:54,840 Speaker 2: we focus our kitchens onto climate change? And what difference 18 00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:55,480 Speaker 2: will that make? 19 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:59,160 Speaker 1: Oh? It's huge, Thank you so much for asking me. 20 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:04,000 Speaker 1: We've just launched our use it Up campaign because what 21 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:08,000 Speaker 1: we discovered was that most people did not understand the 22 00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:13,120 Speaker 1: link between food waste and climate change. You know, here 23 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:19,199 Speaker 1: in Australia food waste is costing US over thirty six 24 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:22,399 Speaker 1: billion dollars a year. I mean, it's just horrifying. We 25 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 1: waste seven point six tons of food a yet. Wow. 26 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 1: And the extraordinary thing is that most of us don't 27 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 1: realize that two point five tons of that comes from 28 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:32,919 Speaker 1: our homes. 29 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:35,959 Speaker 2: And why is there a cost when you say it's 30 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,440 Speaker 2: costing us that much? Where does the cost come in? 31 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 1: So the cost comes in because it costs us money, energy, fuel, water, 32 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:48,120 Speaker 1: labor to grow and produce food, and then a third 33 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 1: of that food gets thrown away before it gets eaten, 34 00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:56,120 Speaker 1: perfectly good food. We waste about seventy percent of the 35 00:01:56,160 --> 00:02:00,240 Speaker 1: food that we throw away is edible. So there's something 36 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 1: fundamentally wrong in our food system. And you know, we're 37 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 1: not aware that there's this link between food waste and 38 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:13,399 Speaker 1: climate change. It is a major contributor to climate change. 39 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 1: It's responsible for ten percent of global greenhouse gases. You know, 40 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,840 Speaker 1: we can't all afford an electric car, and we can't 41 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 1: all afford solar or any of those seemingly far away 42 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:34,120 Speaker 1: things that in our kitchens. If we absolutely stop wasting food, 43 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 1: and this is what our harvest is committed to teaching 44 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 1: us how not to waste food, because that's what this 45 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 1: campaign is all about. It's called use it Up, and 46 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 1: it's based on us learning and understanding what we as 47 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 1: consumers and citizens do and the most important thing, and 48 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 1: it sounds so simple, is to use it up. So 49 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:01,919 Speaker 1: we've got a beautiful new product to help us use 50 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 1: up our surplus food. Well, I'm doing it. I'm doing 51 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 1: it now. That's that's what happens with me. 52 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 2: But what's the product though. 53 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 1: Okay, so it sounds so crazy. It's tape and it's 54 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 1: called use it app tape and on it is printed, 55 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:19,519 Speaker 1: So think of sticky tape, except this this paper. It's recyclable, 56 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: it's reusable, it's dishwasher safe, and it's got on it 57 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,640 Speaker 1: use me up, Pick me up, pick me eat me 58 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:32,360 Speaker 1: And the research, and it's world first. Research shows that 59 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,640 Speaker 1: if you take a piece of the tape and you 60 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 1: stick it on the shelf in your fridge, and then 61 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 1: you move things from your fridge that you know using up. 62 00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 1: Let's say you've got half the yogurt and a full 63 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 1: open yogurt. You put the half an open yogurt on 64 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 1: that shelf. You put the open cheese you put some 65 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: leftover soup, you put it on that shelf, and it 66 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 1: makes us aware to use that before we just go 67 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 1: and the next new one and think, oh, the one 68 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 1: that was open should be thrown away. You know, that's 69 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 1: the most practical way I can share it. But I'm 70 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 1: looking at my kitchen bench, and today my fruit and 71 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: veggie box comes. But I can see I've still got 72 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,599 Speaker 1: an apple and an orange, So I'll stick a little 73 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 1: used upsticker on my apple and orange so that I 74 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 1: know I'm just eat those first before my new fruits come. 75 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 2: And then you crack out the neutri bullet and you 76 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 2: wack it all in there, everything exactly. 77 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:32,920 Speaker 1: Well, thank you, you saved me my next thing. We 78 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 1: got to use it up because actually using all that 79 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:39,919 Speaker 1: stuff means we're stopping food from going to waste, which 80 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 1: means we become climate activists. But the best is it sad? 81 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 1: That's money. Yeah, the research shows that we waste around 82 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:51,480 Speaker 1: two and a half to three thousand dollars a year. Now, 83 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 1: who wouldn't like an extra three thousand bucks in their pocket? Oh, 84 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 1: I'd like that. 85 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:56,919 Speaker 2: You can buy a giant youtuble. I could buy a 86 00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 2: bigger nutriboler which ironically takes up a lot of pas. 87 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,679 Speaker 2: But having said that, we're doing the right thing. Well, Ronnie, 88 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 2: it's great to talk to you, and you on harvest 89 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 2: dot org to find out more how you can use 90 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:08,719 Speaker 2: it up. Ronnie cart, thank you, thank. 91 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 1: You, Ronnie, thanks so much. Guys, have a great day. 92 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:12,479 Speaker 2: Thank you. 93 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:14,600 Speaker 1: Jonesy and Amanda's Damnation
