Dumpster Diving

The practice of foraging in garbage that has been put out on the street in dumpsters, garbage cans, etc., for discarded items that may still be valuable, useful, or fixable.

Thursdays Weekly Meet-ups:

Every week on Thursdays we meet up in the middle of the city to share the abundance of food. It's a great way to meet and support each other. We do it at the same time as the decentralized farmers market that I've initiated which adds more value for everyone!

This weeks meet-up was another great success and I gave away most of what I had in store. Also got some contacts to team up with the local stores going forward!

I'm also looking to collaborate with another food saving initiative called "Solidarity Fridge" (Solidariskt Kylskåp) which collects food from stores and puts them in open fridges around the city!

Why do I Dumpster Dive?

Bring awareness on how much food is wasted with our current system!
Save the abundance of food that is wasted and share it with my network!
Minimizing costs enabling me to Power Up 100%!
Great exercise to bike and carry all the food!

I regularly invite friends over to share the abundance of food, been doing it for many years but now I make sure to introduce everyone to the Steem blockchain! :)

Awesome and enlightening

Wow your dumpsters with food are like natural refrigerators in the Swedish winter cold! I imagine this food saving program would be a huge hit with steem!

I will indeed! Much more to come building up a team to integrate it here, build our own platform and spreading the concept worldwide!! :)

That's so awesome man, you are a hero! I used to do this too in London. 👍🏻

Ty bro, appreciate the support and encouragement!
Fruit FTW! ;)

Wow!! This is really awesome, this could help alot of starving people.

Yes we are changing everything one step at a time in the not so distant future people going hungry will be a mere memory from a dark time of humanity's history...

Good charity work, this requires time mostly finance. but how do you get financed?

It's all voluntary but I post here @theheralds! ;)

Crowd funded activism one could say!

WOW! That's a lot of treasure @reko. Its surprising to see what people throw aaway when there alot of people who have never seen the crumbs. Kudos man!

#AIR-CLINIC

Yeh it's insanity manifested and almost impossible to fathom to what extent this is done in a systematic way every single day!!

HEY @nairadaddy good to see you, we have to connect with @xpency and @samest and @greenrun and organize more for #teamghana and #steemnigeria and REALLY promote #airclinic #air-clinic with @mcsamm to get decentralized medical care even in most remote areas AND combine it with #reko #dfair @reko @dfair to allow ANY farmer to list their food online, to help reoganize our available resources

Yes yes yes! :D

Very okay ideas bro @tytran. We would sure like to have you onboard the #AIR-CLINIC. @mcsamm and @reko are already there.

Here's our server link: https://discord.gg/rqded5m

See yah bro.

#AIR-CLINIC

Thank you @bethalea, going out tonight to refill the stock. Had the day off yesterday as I attended a lovely party. Should bring the camera next time as it's such a cool concept much different then a regular one! :)
