FAQs

We minimize our impact on the world by making mindful decisions at work, at home, and by educating others.

Where does the Leanpath 12.3 Initiative get its name?

In late 2015, the United Nations launched 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) focused on addressing key global challenges such as poverty, inequality, and climate change. Our food system is critically linked to these three themes and all 17 goals, and sharp reductions in food waste would benefit all of them.
