Welfare Series Book No. 7: Curbing Waste

Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do here at Altos. This includes the community-based projects that we support, the practices that we promote, and perhaps most importantly, sustaining the people who make us who we are.
That is why our WE CARE programs focus on our bartender community. We’ve got your back, and we are always looking for ways to be there for you.
While you come first, in this edition we want to highlight practices to help you work (cook, eat) and live more sustainably. Learn what to do with those broccoli stems, to root for ugly fruit and veg and to make drinks from trash, but also see how rearranging your fridge– and leaving some foods out of it can also help keep food fresh for longer. Then, get inspired by industry leaders in the field of food waste and emissions. Change starts at home, with little steps that have an impact.
