Caption: This #EarthDay, I’m proud to support @CityHarvestNYC’s impact in reducing food waste by rescuing perfectly good, nutritious food from grocers, wholesalers, and more to provide free food for New Yorkers in need. This year, they will rescue and deliver more than 81 million pounds of food, preventing the equivalent of more than 24 million kilograms of carbon dioxide from entering the atmosphere. That’s the same as…

📲 1.9 billion smartphones charged
🚗 Taking 5,598 gas-powered cars off the road for 1 year
🌲 396,842 tree seedlings grown for 10 years
