The power of food sharing | Leon Aarts | TEDxArchivorum

Leon realised the transformative power of sharing a meal by founding the charity, With Compassion, at the beginning of 2020, cooking and delivering meals to London’s most vulnerable people. In this discussion, he explains how food waste is related to climate change, the impacts of COVID-19 and how his charity fights against the pandemic, as well as the possibilities of expanding his ideals throughout the world. From top chef and food entrepreneur, to mentor, author and the founder of three charities; Leon now devotes most of his time to ‘With Compassion’, the charity he founded at the beginning of 2020, cooking and delivering meals to London’s most vulnerable people. This initiative is highly aligned with his guiding ethos: ‘no-one should go to bed hungry’. Since its nascence, With Compassion has cooked 600,000 meals using surplus food, saving over 300 tons of food from going to landfill. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
