Loved this issue Justin! The takeaway about the "stronger focus on figuring out what to do with waste instead of preventing it in the first place" really struck a chord with me. I think it's also in part because coming up with solutions to reactive food waste problems is easier for external agents (i.e. companies like second harvest), whereas solutions to create better demand forecasting systems or to optimize logistics networks requires more knowledge about the company and its processes.
🙌🏻 Thanks Adam, glad you liked it! That's a great point about external actors. You don't need to contend with all the complexity across an existing network, just at a specific point.
