Zero Waste in Gastronomy – Behind The Scenes
About this Event
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We continue to #InspireAndCreateChange virtually & invite you to our first ONLINE Swiss-wide CET Event, this time powered by our sister Impact Hub in Basel!
More than 2.6 million tonnes of edible products are discarded in Switzerland annually (BAFU, 2019)! In addition, the volume of household waste amounts to around 6 million tonnes per year (BAFU, 2018).
That makes Switzerland one of the largest waste producing and resource using countries worldwide. The food waste and trash created at the consumer stage, namely in restaurants and households, has a significant impact on our climate.
It’s time to have a closer look at how to counteract.

IS A ZERO WASTE PRACTICE IN GASTRONOMY POSSIBLE?
Impact Hub Basel and Café spurlos invite you to learn more about the solutions to cut waste and about best practices in Basel’s gastronomy. We will hear about work and progress, zero waste challenges and successes from Café spurlos, Hotel Gaia, RAK Sustainable Events, and pureTaste. You will have the opportunity to engage into in-person discussion with entrepreneurs and co-create the solutions for their current zero waste challenges.
