None of this 4 00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:13,119 Speaker 2: would have been possible without the tireless efforts of oz 5 00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:16,079 Speaker 2: Harvest founder. It's not easy to say, Ronnie Khan an 6 00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:19,279 Speaker 2: incredible woman. To celebrate this amazing milestone and help raise 7 00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:23,160 Speaker 2: funds for this incredible cause, they're hosting a concert featuring 8 00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:25,640 Speaker 2: some of the country's biggest performers to talk about this 9 00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:30,000 Speaker 2: is Ronnie Kahan herself. Hello, Ronnie, Ronnie, good morning. 10 00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:34,279 Speaker 1: Thank you so much for the opportunity to share our 11 00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 1: equivalent in the spirit of Live Aid and band Aid 12 00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:40,720 Speaker 1: unite to feed Australia Live. 13 00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:43,479 Speaker 2: Well, let's talk before we get to the concert. Give 14 00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:45,919 Speaker 2: us some of the information for those that don't know 15 00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:48,680 Speaker 2: about the work of oz Harvest. You say that food 16 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:51,640 Speaker 2: security is the nation's hidden crisis. Many people would be 17 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:52,440 Speaker 2: surprised to hear that. 18 00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 1: I think absolutely honestly, Amanda. In twenty years, as you mentioned, 19 00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 1: we twenty years old, I have never seen the need 20 00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:08,959 Speaker 1: so great. Three point seven million households at any time 21 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:12,360 Speaker 1: in Australia struggled to put food on their table. This 22 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:17,720 Speaker 1: year so we also almost talking about nine million, nine 23 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:24,800 Speaker 1: to ten million Asias. So I mean it's just so shocking, unconscionable. 24 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 1: Half of the charities we support do not have enough 25 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 1: food to meet their demand. And you know what's even 26 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 1: more horrendous, sixty percent of all the food insecure households 27 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:38,440 Speaker 1: have someone who has a job. 28 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 3: And that Wow, when you say this running is this from? 29 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 3: Is this from bad homes? Like at homes where like 30 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 3: say alcohol and drugs? So this is just people. 31 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,880 Speaker 1: Yes, when I said sixty percent, this is a new demographic. 32 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 1: These are people who have a job who, for whatever reason, 33 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 1: and we understand how how challenging the cost of living 34 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 1: is cannot afford to either pay their rental mortgage plus 35 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 1: education plus health plus fuel plus it. Food is the 36 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 1: first thing to go. 37 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 2: Wow, the other work that oz harvest does. So it's 38 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 2: too prong, isn't it in my understanding that you're looking. 39 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 2: You provide food for these people, but you also get 40 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,920 Speaker 2: food that would normally have been wasted by restaurants and 41 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:28,399 Speaker 2: companies and households. 42 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 1: Yep, absolutely, and well not households. Households. We try and 43 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:37,240 Speaker 1: teach all of us how not to waste food but 44 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,920 Speaker 1: the truth is that food waste is the second biggest 45 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 1: reason for climate change. And so we are both a 46 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 1: social organization and an environmental and you know, which makes 47 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 1: us also such a good value prophibition because we're feeding 48 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 1: hungry people, but we're making sure that good food doesn't 49 00:02:57,880 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 1: go to waste. 50 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 3: And when you've got stuff in your fridge, for example, 51 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 3: I've really taken a leaf out of this book. I'm 52 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 3: always eating leftovers. But so you say, I wait, so 53 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 3: I cooked a chicken. Okay, so we had chicken last night. 54 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 3: How long can that chicken now that's been cooked last 55 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:11,919 Speaker 3: in my fridge? 56 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 1: For? 57 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 3: Can it last past? 58 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: You've got two options. You can either pop it straight 59 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 1: into the freezer, or you can turn it into a 60 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 1: free tighter. Or you can fry it up with rice 61 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 1: and create a new version of that chicken the next day. 62 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:30,640 Speaker 3: I've got four days, so I've got four days to 63 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 3: eat the chicken. But if I turn into something else 64 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 3: second part of my question, Ronnie, if I cook that 65 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 3: chicken and make a chicken curry, can I freeze that 66 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 3: curry because it's now. 67 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 1: Been so Absolutely, because you've only cooked it once, you've 68 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 1: cooked it, you've turned it into curry and then you 69 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 1: can freeze it so that the next time you take 70 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 1: it out you can't reheat it and reheat it. You 71 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 1: can reheat it once absolutely. But I don't know if 72 00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 1: you know that. We have a product called use It 73 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 1: Up Tape and we created that on the back of 74 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 1: work with Monash University and behavioral scientists because households waste 75 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:15,360 Speaker 1: half of all food waste in austral globally that we 76 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,919 Speaker 1: know that in Australia, and so we have a product 77 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 1: that is obviously yellow and black, looks like a sticky tape. 78 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 1: It says cook me, eat meat, pick me, and you 79 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:30,159 Speaker 1: put it on a shelf in your fridge. So it 80 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 1: sounds to me jonesy like you are very well organized 81 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 1: and unloving hearing you say you use up your leftovers 82 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 1: and a lot of us don't know how. So this 83 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 1: sticky tape you put on a shelf in the fridge, 84 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 1: you move everything that needs to be used up onto 85 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 1: that fridge, so it's front of mind. It's now in 86 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:56,279 Speaker 1: over one hundred thousand households and the research is telling 87 00:04:56,360 --> 00:05:00,799 Speaker 1: us that they have halved their food waste and saved 88 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:05,719 Speaker 1: approximately between one and a half thousand to three thousand 89 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 1: dollars a year because food waste costs us so much money, 90 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:14,119 Speaker 1: so that you can get from our website for free. 91 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,919 Speaker 1: We do ask that people pay for postage. That the 92 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 1: tape is free, so they just have to go to 93 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:24,480 Speaker 1: ours Harvest dot org to order and use it up tape. 94 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,840 Speaker 1: But all of this leads us, all of the crisis, 95 00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 1: all of the challenges our twenty years, leads us into 96 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:39,359 Speaker 1: our amazing epic concert and we'd love every one of 97 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:40,599 Speaker 1: your listeners to be there. 98 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 3: Well.
