Dont plagiarize: what are three things you and your family can do to help reduce food waste?

1. Plan meals ahead of time to avoid buying unnecessary ingredients and ensure leftovers are used in future meals.

2. Properly store perishable foods to extend their shelf life, such as storing fruits and vegetables in the refrigerator and freezing meat and dairy products if they won't be used before their expiration date.
3. Donate excess food to local food banks or shelters instead of letting it go to waste. This not only helps those in need but also reduces the environmental impact of food waste.
