In a TED Talks Daily conversation, social entrepreneur Jasmine Crowe-Houston discusses an approach to hunger that focuses on reducing food waste rather than producing more food. She describes Goodr, a platform built to reroute surplus food to people in need, aiming to connect available food from businesses with communities that can use it. Crowe-Houston explains how attention from a viral moment helped drive wider public and organizational involvement in the effort to address wasted food. The discussion frames food waste as a practical barrier that can be reduced through logistics, coordination, and technology that match excess food with recipients. Reporter Manoush Zomorodi hosts the conversation and explores the motivation behind Crowe-Houston’s work and the broader potential of redirecting edible surplus. Across the account, the central emphasis is that hunger and waste are linked, and that existing food supplies can be used more effectively when systems are put in place to deliver surplus to those who need it. The segment is part of TED Talks Daily and is hosted on Acast.
