Can you tell us a bit about your experience and why this topic is so important to you? GUEST: I've spent over 15 years working in the restaurant business, and I've seen firsthand the impact of waste on our environment. It's crucial that we take action to reduce our footprint, not just for the planet, but for the long-term sustainability of our industry. HOST: That's a great point.

Can you share any success stories or challenges you've faced implementing these strategies in real-world settings? GUEST: Absolutely. Composting, for instance, can be a game-changer in reducing food waste. However, it requires proper planning and staff training to ensure it's done correctly. One challenge is finding the right balance between cost and benefits, as composting systems can have upfront costs. But once implemented, the savings on waste disposal and the positive impact on the environment make it all worthwhile.
