This week, on the Progressive Radio Network, I am very excited to bring back Ben Simon, the founder of Food Recovery Network. I first met Ben in February, at the Food Tank Summit in DC, and was moved by his passion and commitment to food recovery and the problem of food waste. At the time, he joined me for a mini interview from the Summit, but there was so much more we needed to discuss, that I knew then, I would need to bring him back for the full hour. While a student at the University of Maryland, Ben was shocked by the amount of food that was being wasted, and he knew the same situation existed in universities across the country, so he set out to do something about it. please join me to see an example of what one passionate person can do to change the world!
