The Sherbrooke community economic development corporation (CDEC) and the École internationale du Phare launched a pilot project this past week aimed at getting students to think about reducing their food waste. Called the “Pèse-Gâchis,” or waste scales, the project involves targeted sorting of student lunch waste into different identified bins and then weighing the contents of each bin as a way of being more aware of what students are throwing away.
